adjust became ended four guy guys last low minutes nine team tough unique winning within
We were at the low end of the ACC, and our big guy got hurt. We ended up winning nine of the last 11 and were within four minutes of winning the ACC championship. On offense, we became a very unique team to play against, and we had a lot of different guys make shots. Sometimes when you play without a big man, it's tough on the other team. They have to adjust to you.
best choice five four games identity knew lose team together
We knew we had no choice but to come together or it's going to get worse. When you lose four out of five games and you go through what we went through, the best way to get an identity back is to make things hard. I thought our team really responded.
bit room
We're going to have to do that (rebounding) more collectively. We were like that anyway, but we had a little bit more room for error.
area best convert four gets guy help keeping offensive provide sure three
We're going to try our best to provide as much help to the guy guarding him on that area of the floor. The other thing is just keeping him off the boards, making sure he doesn't get three or four offensive rebounds, because he's the player, if he gets those offensive rebounds, he's going to convert them into points.
collective goes good hard players several step
We did some good things today, and we had several players really step up, which is what we need now. It's not one player replacing a player that goes down. It's a collective group. Offensively, you can see that we can be hard to guard.
confidence hope keeps lose regain second seemed shot
You lose your confidence when the shot doesn't go in. He seemed to really regain it in the second half, and I hope he keeps it all season. Sometimes you just need one to go in to make that hoop bigger.
basketball problems
We have a lot of problems as a basketball team.
football looking playing team
We need to find out how we can become the team we were for so long. Looking at it from this perspective, it's not like we're going in at 6 a.m. and playing football or doing anything crazy.
chose guard lining open silver stanley tried
They chose to guard Stanley Burrell and really tried to take him out of the game. The silver lining is when you do that, you open the floodgates for some other players.
family
He embarrassed our university, our program, his family and himself.
ball hard nine pass practices shore shown team terrific word
I would use the word alarming. We're a team that practices very well and hard, and we pass the ball well, and we've shown we can rebound. Through nine games, we all have to take a hard look at what we need to do to shore that up. If we could shore that up, we'd have a terrific team.
attitude based changed coach five great guys looking past players start test
Not because the coach changed his mind, but because looking at these past two days, those five guys have done a great job. Their attitude has been very good. We've put our players to the test defensively, and just looking at them working together, they're the five guys that should start based on those two days. If it would be any other way, we would make a change.
