It is what it is. We’re not making shots and if you’re not making shots you got to be able to kind of at least make up for it with offensive rebounds or your defense and we haven’t been doing that either. We did a little bit against BU, but I think St. Joe’s has a really good team and you’re not going to do it against teams like that on the road. You’ve got to make some shots.

Yep, sounds about right.
"The ref came over and said ‘You have five fouls. Do you want to foul here? If you’re fouling, I don’t want to miss it. We had six on our book, so we sent a guy to the scorer’s table and said ‘How many fouls?’ and they said ‘Five, you have five.’ So we were just fouling to make them have a longer possession. We didn’t want to foul there. We don’t want to put them on the line for one-and-one. It happens, but there were so many other plays after that. I’ve never seen it happen before, but you control what you can control. I mean, we had plenty of other opportunities. It was just bizarre. It was more on us."
