“I think Robert Morris is a very talented team. They scared me when they jumped out to that lead, but we regrouped at halftime. We started playing better defense and defending their perimeter shot better.” (Brickhouse Jack)
“Teams are keying on him something fierce.” (Brickhouse Jack)
“They're just average in size, maybe 14 to 15 inches. But I had a guy in here who said he and his buddy got something like 40 of them one day. That's pretty good action anyway.” (Brickhouse Jack)
I feel I could help this team in that role. If not, so be it. (Brickhouse Jack)
I don’t know why this team wants to face challenges when they don’t have to, but time and time again we do it. (Brickhouse Jack)
It’s been good for us, having a young team, to have those four hours. Lately, we’ve been moving from conditioning to more basketball. We spent some time together in the summer, and it’s given us a great baseline. (Brickhouse Jack)
Our backs have been against the wall all year. We were put in a situation where it was a must-win for us today. They knew in the back of their minds what was at stake. (Brickhouse Jack)
The less said the better right now. I don’t have to tell the kids the importance of this. They just seem to do better with less pressure. Maybe it’s their youth. They want to play and have fun and keep it at that level, and I’m just going to go with that. (Brickhouse Jack)
They got a lot of threes in transition (last time) so we focused on that today. Our biggest thing was stopping the ball and not letting them penetrate and kick out for three’s. We got a lot of stops on the defensive end and that created a lot of transition buckets for us. (Brickhouse Jack)
They just seem to do better when there’s less pressure. I figured that out through the course of the year. They just need to go out and play and have fun. (Brickhouse Jack)
They played zone the entire game so we got into a rhythm with it-it’s something we’ve been working on for 3 days. Still, we had 11 turnovers in the first half-there’s no excuse for that. (Brickhouse Jack)
To get that many teams in, to get that much respect really makes people recognize this conference as a force. (Brickhouse Jack)
We are playing well defensively, but people are getting more shots than we are. We are not taking care of the ball, and that’s all us. It’s not a case of the other team dominating us. (Brickhouse Jack)
We could have helped ourselves. Now, it’s a wait-and-see. (Brickhouse Jack)
We fought at the end, but we didn’t come out and play 40 minutes. We were trying to do it all in the final 3:45 and that wasn’t going to work. (Brickhouse Jack)
We talked about taking advantage of their size. They’re undersized and they’ve got players out so our strength was in the middle tonight. (Brickhouse Jack)
I don’t know about the people who didn’t understand what (Shapiro) was doing back then, but they should understand now, … This is a very good team. The sky is the limit with this group (Brickhouse Jack)
I hear a lot of what is said about me on those shows, and it really ticks me off, … Guys who call and blast me will have an effect on whether I want to come back here next season. My kids hear this stuff and it makes me mad (Brickhouse Jack)
It’s been a team effort, … Guys have been stepping up all year (Brickhouse Jack)
Their durability is impressive, … All aspects of this team are getting it done. The hitters have come on strong, the bullpen has been solid. But it all starts right out there with the starters (Brickhouse Jack)
I‘m ecstatic about the team we have this year. We’re pretty darn good. (Brickhouse Jack)
