Emotionally Gabe gives us great effort, he gives us a guy who has been there and he gives us poise ... He gives us experience, and that's something that's hard to buy.

I'm really extremely proud of our team. We saw great, great growth tonight in so many areas ... We played with poise, and we defended exceedingly well.

We're trying to look at everybody on our roster. Nobody has a secure position
Stephen F. Austin is a disciplined team, and a team that guarded us exceedingly well ... They did a great job of executing their offense with poise, getting the ball to where it needed to go.
I'm real disappointed with what we were unable to get into the game
Really disappointed at what we were unable to get into the game ... Offensive execution was bad, when we did execute, we'd get the ball to the rim and couldn't finish.

Offensively, it's an event when we come down the floor ... We're not sure where the baskets are going to come from and whether we'll executer properly or whether the guy we run the action for will rise up and go make a shot.
