Audio excerpts from Coach Roy Williams' post-Holy Cross game comments (MP3 files):
On KU's overall performance: "I thought the whole game really was our defense...they're a hard team to play." On controlling HC's Brian Wilson, who hit four first-half three-pointers: "...try to do a better job guarding the basketball." On KU's domination inside: "...we had either a size or a skill advantage in there." On Bryant Nash: "Kirk has been politicking for Bryant..." On Nick Collison: "...didn't shoot the ball well...first-game jitters"." On preparing his team to face the next opponent, UNC Greensboro: "they'd better play their tails off Friday night." More on Collison: "...pretty doggone good player when he doesn't play very well." On the change in Bryant Nash's confidence: "...did some nice things...sign of maurity." On KU's substitutes: "...bench guys can really hjelp us if they don't hurt us." Williams explains his philosophy on when to swap out players during a game. On Jeff Graves getting more in shape: has to build the "stamina to play more than a few minutes at a time." On the last new recruit, J.R. Giddens: "He has a big-time flair for the game." |
