Did everything go as planned?
Yeah, we won. How do you feel about that?
This is a college basketball program and the people we play are tough. We’re not playing bad people, we’re playing really good basketball teams.
How do you feel about the players?
You know what, I got all the respect for all the players. These guys come out here and the way they compete and play are the most amazing things on the planet. These guys don’t have scholarships. How did you feel before the game? Did you guys think you would have a great victory?
I’m always nervous, because anything could happen in an athletic contest. Like the NE-Patriots, everyone thought they were going to beat the NY-Giants, but they didn’t so I’m never comfortable before a game.
A lot of stress on the coach right?
Yes, oh yes.
