NORTH TEXAS vs.
December 19, 2005
Michael Sturns (NT, F)
“We prepared all week to come out strong. Coach kept telling us that they were a pretty good team with some good players, so we wanted to start out strong against them. We were able to do that, but we can’t be content with this win. Now we’ve got to focus on
Kendrick Davis (NT, F)
“We just tried to get after them early and get some easy baskets. I thought our bench played great and that really helps. It was a good win. We were able to get some guys some minutes and that’s good. They work hard in practice every day and they deserved it.”
“We just tried to execute our sets and get after them. I really didn’t realize that we were up that much at the first of the game. They’re a pretty good team. Maybe it was just an off night for them.”
Johnny Jones (head coach)
“I thought we did a good job of staying focused after we got that big lead in the first half. Sometimes in games like this, it’s hard to maintain your focus and intensity level. But we stayed in our offense and continued to concentrate on the defensive end. It was a good night for us. We played well and continued to improve.”
“Sometimes it’s hard to play as many guys as we did tonight, but I wanted to reward those guys who come to practice every day and work hard and come to play. I was glad we were able to play them and get them some time.”
