Tovarich: Well, it's a win. I'm thankful they couldn't make a free throw. The refs must have wanted some camera time with 38 combined free throws. We shot efficiently from 3 and from the line. Lathum got some layups against the press. Took them 2/3 of the game to figure out that was a bad idea.
Reporter: When the opponent throws a lead pass into the paint, why does your players turn into ghosts?
Tovarich: I wish I knew. It defies all physics the way the ball bounces on it's way into the paint and then it and all my players seem to lose momentum and go into slow motion and someone runs around behind us and grabs the ball when it almost seemingly goes through us somehow.
Reporter: What percentage do you think your opponents shoot on reverse layups?
Tovarich: 99% at least and with a high degree of difficulty. I think we stumble our way into a block once without it being a foul, but the acrobatics are amazing to watch sometimes.
Reporter: This is the last week of recruiting. How do you feel about it this year compared to last?
Tovarich: This looks a lot more promising than last year did. I've improved my recruiting skills from last year a little. The interest from recruits seems a little bit better, still not great. We're going for a lot of guys with no offers but the player has other preferences. We just have to hope those schools use up all their scholarships and we'll back our way into a few. They could all disappear all of a sudden, but I don't feel so fatalistic like I did last year where I sort of only barely managed to pull in a few guys late in the offseason.
