Danny Nee Quotations

One of us is going to win. Even by default.

Right now, I don't have an answer. You've got to knock down shots.

McAllister gave everything he had. We didn't have enough.

He is to them is what McAllister is to us. He's their go-to guy.

He wasn't able to come back and get untracked.

He's going to be a big key in this.

He gave us everything he had. He's just got to get some help from some other people.

It doesn't help the cause. We needed scoring.

It gives us a little confidence. It's something to build on.

I thought we competed. We came in and we wanted to play a certain way and for most of the night we did. Temple sometimes pushes you out of it.

I thought we competed. We wanted to play a certain way and for most of the game, we tried to play that way. We stayed and fought as well as we could. But the percentages catch up with you.

I thought we played well. We played hard. We gave a good effort. Pops was really unstoppable. He's a man-child. He's an NBA player, that's for sure.

I think we're finding our team. I think we're hitting our stride with the kids who want to play the way we want them to play.

We needed him. We needed his scoring and rebounds, and he had one of his better performances.

We couldn't play much worse. I would have to call it a disaster offensively.

That was as good a half of basketball, offensively and defensively, that we've played all season.

We tried anything to stop the bleeding. Some of their kids who had not been shooting well hit a couple of shots.

We're trying to find a way to win a game.

We have to get help for McAllister. We need more offense from someone else on the floor. It can't be McAllister carrying us on his shoulders. We need all the other players to get more consistent.

We're going to have to make (3-pointers). We've got to make eight to 12 to be in the game.

We're trying to get him a little more focused and get him to play better.

We've had to move our roster around. There's a lot of playing time going to a lot of young players. What we're seeing is a lot of inconsistency.

A couple of our guys are better than what they're showing right now.

Coach Hobbs has done as good as job as any coach in the country at taking a program and moving to another level.

Nothing worked. That's inexperience. You need someone to step up and make a play. We have no margin of error. We have to be at 85-90 percent effectiveness. It might be 95 percent to win a game.

Nothing worked. We didn't get any clean looks, and I don't know if we got a clean look, if we'd knock it down anyway.

The last eight or nine minutes we got tired, no question about that. I thought we gave a good effort.

Chauncey has become a very solid player the past couple of weeks.

He's really struggling. We're just going to have to go back to the drawing board, watch film with him and keep his confidence up, but these are the two worst games he might have played since he's been at Duquesne. He got shut out tonight and a lot of them were, what I call, easy shots.

He's the real deal. He's improved so much. He's going to be an NBA basketball player, that's for sure.

They will be running, and our point guard (freshman Aaron Jackson) will have to be up for the challenge. We have to play error-free basketball.

I really was pleased with the effort and the comeback. But once we made the comeback, we exerted so much energy that when they made their run, we weren't able to counter it.

It's not how many times you get knocked down; it's how many times you get up.

They got points in the paint. We just don't have an answer for them all the time. We got hurt by a lot of people. They were scoring inside and on second shots.

They have some tremendous basketball programs in Philadelphia.

I do think we can rebound better. I know we can. We need everyone to help out in that area.

I felt we weren't efficient in anything we were doing. I just told the kids I'm really disappointed.
