“They (Minnesota) shot 67 percent in the first half and 55 percent for the game with 40 points in the paint. That's not really the trademark of how we want to play.”
Lawrence Frank
“Kyle was 83 percent converting third downs in the second half (5-of-6). He got better as the game went along. We know he'll get better as we go. We're excited about his potential the rest of the year.”
Lovie Smith
“It's tough to lose a game when you shoot 74 percent in the second half. We have to be better defensively. For whatever reason, we were running into their screens.”
Jamie Dixon
“They shot 57 percent in the first half and in the second half, every big basket that they had to have, we had a defensive breakdown. I don't think we were mentally or physically sharp tonight and as a result Elon, a club that's been kind of laying in wait ... coming in fresh, shoots the ball well and gets out of here with a win.”
Oliver Purnell
“Half this game is ninety percent mental.”
