We turned the ball over too much. We had too many missed opportunities to win this game.

Every coach is biased about his own kid, but I wouldn't trade Kevin for anybody. He accepted not making the Dandy Dozen as a challenge. A lot of people, including some colleges, looked over him because of his height, but his size makes him play harder.

We've got to have a little fortune fall our way. Winning on Friday would be very important because I feel like we play very well at home.

It's huge what these kids have accomplished. God gets the glory and they get every bit of the credit. They have done a great job of buying into the system and wanting to win. Our five seniors are extremely mature. Even when they came in as sophomores, they were mature.

Our philosophy is to have an offense for every defense thrown at you. We try to respond to whatever we see. We just like to keep it simple. (Kennedy) is getting better, and he's having better decisions to make.

Kevin is very talented. He has vision, and you can't teach that. He's not a selfish player who has to shoot. He helps a lot of other people score, though. You saw that tonight. He just helps a lot of people score.
