Post-Game Quotes at Furman
Greenville, S.C. – Feb. 9 – Timmons Arena

Matt McCall, Head Coach
Opening statement after 60-56 loss to Furman.
"We got beat down offensively, no question tale of two halves on offense. We just couldn't put the ball in the basket. Defensively, we played good enough to win the game, but we came in with three keys. Guarding the three, out-rebounding them and not turning the ball over. We really didn't do any of those. We have to do a better job taking care of the ball and dissect our offense. You won't win many games scoring 17 points in a half."

On not executing down the stretch.
"We have to look at that. I thought in a close game against Western Carolina we executed well down the stretch. Some of our guys aren't just seeing the floor well enough and we have to do a better job as coaches to show that and what to look for in certain actions."

Justin Tuoyo, Sr.-F
On what needed to change for a win.
"We have to watch film. We needed to take care of the ball and stay down on defense. We needed to make plays and with five seniors we should execute late in the game."

On bouncing back before Saturday.
"We have a tough game Saturday. At midnight we will let this loss go, that's our rule. They'll be ready for us. We have to be ready for Wofford on Saturday."

Johnathan Burroughs-Cook, Sr.-G
On the final minutes of the game.
"We just made a couple mistakes down the stretch, trying to be too aggressive. The mistakes cost us and we needed to clean that up if we wanted to win. We came back when we were down, but it came down to execution. It was a defensive mistake that we needed to stay locked in."

On what the difference was.
"They played aggressive and we made some careless mistakes. It's something we need to fix and do a better job."
