How satisfying is it after a 1-4 start that the team is now 4-4 in the conference?
"We have certainly given ourselves some life. Our guys are battling. From an efficiency standpoint we are still not close to where I hope we can be. From an effort standpoint, I couldn't be more pleased in where we are at right now."
On Terrico White's first half
"He is such a good player. He is becoming more comfortable. I wish we didn't have to play him so much, because when he gets tired that affects his play. If you give him room he can make jump shots. He was rebounding the ball tonight; eight has to be a career high for him. He's doing it in other ways than just scoring, which shows that he is a ball player."
On the play of Terrance Henry
"I think he had his best game as a Rebel today. We started him, they start four guards, he had to guard a senior guard. That is the match up we had him on, I thought he did a tremendous job. He was very active, he had five rebounds, but I bet he kept another four or five alive for someone else to get. Coming into the game I was real concerned because they force turnovers. We have eight turnovers, therefore they don't get many run outs. Those run outs seem to energize them, so by limiting that and doing a decent job on the perimeter, usually when you hold people under 60 points you have a pretty good shot at winning."
