Ladner:
All jobs are open. We have got to stop the slow talk to halfs. I've tried everything but messing with the lineup. I think maybe changes will be made.
I take responsibility for the slow start at Rice. We started slow Sat, then substituted in mass, and we got back into it.
I think the only player that will stay in the starting 5 will be Stevenson. The other 4 are u for grabs.
We have to play well for 40 min not 30 min.
UNT is a mature, well coached team. They are full of Juniors and Seniors. That makes them dangerous. Their coach has done a good job of building the program.. They were not good when he took over, but have gotten better. They have size and some pieces that we are trying to develop. They good at taking the shot clock down and taking the shot they want.
We had a good practice today.
Justin Johnson is playing better, but it took him realizing that just because he has talent doesn't mean you will play. The bench made him realize what type of player he can be.
Pinkney:
We can't dwell on the loss, we have to watch clips of the game, forget it and get after iy in practice.
If we go ply D like we played early in the season, we can win these games.
We have to play better defense at the first 4 min of each half.
I have to work on ball handling. IT is all a mental thing to me.
Me and Johnson are roommates and we have a great way of communicating with each other and I wish everyone on the tam had that communication.
