Our defense was so bad. I don't know where to begin.

I was just trying to find five players who could play defense. We played a very porous defense.

We feel like we're practicing against the hardest defense in the nation every single day. When I look back there and see a different face, I'll be excited. If I can beat the best, then I'll be able to beat the second-best when they come along.

That play was my fault. We ran a defense that we had run the last two or three years that shut them down. I guess I should have stayed in our base defense, because they only scored one more after that. I guess everybody learns a little something.

We weren't talking on defense, and we weren't making shots. We were running, but we making the pass one dribble too late.

In one sense it's somewhat good news, because now the defense, instead of worrying about that 24 number lingering out there, can think 15 is the worst they can do, and they're going to try to improve upon it. There's no guarantee, but as a practical matter, that really is likely the worst-case scenario.
