It was an incredible basketball game.

We just try to give them all an attacking mentality. That's the whole thing is to play aggressive basketball.

Fatigue was a factor. Each team was tired. Both teams played a big-time basketball game.

They're an improved basketball team. They're really playing within themselves. I think Coach (John Giannini) has done a great job of not letting opponents get comfortable. They do different things depending on who they play. We're going to have to execute well and have to be able to think on our feet.

I thought we played our best basketball of the season in the first and third quarters. We had a plan defensively and we just put it all together. We played well at both ends of the floor.

Based on our win-loss record this past season, changes needed to be made. This aspect of coaching college basketball is business. We have offered to assist those who are choosing to move on.
