Latest / Coaches Corner / The Dailey Recap - Ole Miss
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: And the timing could not be better. Chris Daly has
- 0:02Speaker 1: joined us. Nice job Deborah forgetting Chris daily, whether it's
- 0:06Speaker 1: for the daily recap. Well, this game kind of in
- 0:09Speaker 1: some ways reminded me of North Carolina. You build a lead,
- 0:14Speaker 1: Old Miss comes back storming back very differently than North
- 0:17Speaker 1: Carolina did, but you weather the tide. You got a
- 0:20Speaker 1: couple of big hoops from Easy to stem the tide,
- 0:23Speaker 1: settle things down, and you come out of here with
- 0:24Speaker 1: a nice win.
- 0:25Speaker 2: Yeah, it was great to have Easy back on the floor.
- 0:28Speaker 3: You know, I the kid has worked so hard and
- 0:32Speaker 3: just to be back, and I think she's actually in
- 0:34Speaker 3: better shape than she was before she got hurt, if
- 0:37Speaker 3: that makes sense at all, But just helps a lot
- 0:40Speaker 3: to be able to put her in the game. And
- 0:42Speaker 3: she was you know, she's a really good one on
- 0:44Speaker 3: one player. You know, people think she's just a three
- 0:46Speaker 3: point shooter, but she can really go off the bounce
- 0:48Speaker 3: and just gave us a big lift.
- 0:50Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 0:51Speaker 5: She was getting hit too.
- 0:52Speaker 4: I mean a lot of physical bumping and she just
- 0:54Speaker 4: it's the upper body strength to not just lower body. Yeah.
- 0:57Speaker 3: I thought, you know, they're a very has a very
- 1:00Speaker 3: physical team, and we knew that going in, and I
- 1:02Speaker 3: thought we handled ourselves pretty well, and I thought the
- 1:05Speaker 3: officiating kind of let it go. It was even if
- 1:08Speaker 3: you look at the numbers, both in terms of you know,
- 1:11Speaker 3: fourteen thousand each side. But I thought the rebounding, even
- 1:17Speaker 3: though they got a bunch of offensive rebounds, I thought
- 1:19Speaker 3: we handled we won the battle overall, and I thought
- 1:22Speaker 3: we did a pretty good job on the backboard.
- 1:23Speaker 5: Yeah, second chance points were eleven to five.
- 1:26Speaker 1: The overall number was thirty seven thirty in favor of
- 1:29Speaker 1: the Huskies, and a lot of those rebounds, particularly in
- 1:31Speaker 1: the second half late, came from Jenna.
- 1:33Speaker 5: She really stepped up big.
- 1:34Speaker 2: Yeah. She gave us a lot of good minutes, and.
- 1:38Speaker 3: Rebounding the ball is a big part of that, you know,
- 1:40Speaker 3: a scott into some foul trouble and being able to
- 1:43Speaker 3: put you in. And then they they were trapping, so
- 1:46Speaker 3: we were able to get some easy layups by her.
- 1:50Speaker 3: I don't know, they didn't go to at all, so
- 1:52Speaker 3: I'm not sure why, but I think they were trapping
- 1:54Speaker 3: the ball screen or the people up top. So it
- 1:58Speaker 3: really gave us, you know, good minutes. Got to improve
- 2:02Speaker 3: on a fifty pre throw shooting, but.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Really happy for the players.
- 2:06Speaker 3: You know, it's just it's still early, but it's a
- 2:09Speaker 3: great test at this time of the year to be
- 2:11Speaker 3: able to play against a very physical team, and we're
- 2:15Speaker 3: going to see teams like that, you know, down the road,
- 2:17Speaker 3: and this is certainly something that we're going to be
- 2:20Speaker 3: able to look back on and say it helped us.
- 2:22Speaker 2: Talk about Sarah Strong.
- 2:23Speaker 4: Every knows, you know, what she's come in and how
- 2:26Speaker 4: good of a player she can be and the potential there.
- 2:29Speaker 4: She made some beautiful passes on those bounce passes that
- 2:32Speaker 4: made it look easy, but she delivered them right on
- 2:34Speaker 4: the mark to get the scores.
- 2:36Speaker 2: She's a terrific passer, you know.
- 2:38Speaker 3: And it's funny she's not shooting the three as well
- 2:41Speaker 3: as she has and does in practice, but I think
- 2:43Speaker 3: every time she shoots it, it's gone in.
- 2:45Speaker 2: She has to think that though, you know, that's part
- 2:48Speaker 2: of it.
- 2:48Speaker 3: But we didn't shoot that many threes, and we only
- 2:51Speaker 3: made I think three, But they had a kid on
- 2:52Speaker 3: their team, Todd Williams, who literally made three before tonight's game,
- 2:57Speaker 3: and tonight chose four for four and the other the
- 3:02Speaker 3: number seven was forty seven percent from the free throw line,
- 3:05Speaker 3: and she ended up going five for six, but her
- 3:07Speaker 3: first four she made I think first five she made
- 3:10Speaker 3: mister last one. So we have a way of doing that.
- 3:12Speaker 3: We helped number eleven on Oregon Steak and on the
- 3:15Speaker 3: All Star team, so we do we do our fair
- 3:18Speaker 3: share to help others. It is thanksgiving, you know, we
- 3:22Speaker 3: are in this season of given. We gave the ball
- 3:24Speaker 3: back too many times in the second half, so that
- 3:26Speaker 3: was not part of the.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Plan, I'm going to guess, and I think Page touched
- 3:29Speaker 1: upon this with this post game.
- 3:31Speaker 5: You guys had a lot of layups in the first half.
- 3:34Speaker 5: Was that was that? Did you see something on film?
- 3:35Speaker 1: Were were able where guys were able to find lanes and
- 3:38Speaker 1: get to the basket.
- 3:39Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 3:40Speaker 3: Teams that like to put as much pressure on the
- 3:43Speaker 3: ball and they try to take away almost every pass,
- 3:46Speaker 3: then you're able to use that against them, hopefully if
- 3:48Speaker 3: you handle it right and get uncontested layups or layups
- 3:51Speaker 3: on the back door. And we were able to do
- 3:53Speaker 3: that pretty easily in the first half, not so much
- 3:56Speaker 3: in the second half.
- 3:57Speaker 2: So it's fun to take away the heart.
- 3:58Speaker 4: You get the hardware, so you know, tournament time, like, yeah,
- 4:01Speaker 4: do what you're in the mahamazand I know you, and
- 4:06Speaker 4: you seem to always make sure there's some fun along
- 4:08Speaker 4: the way if you take care of business.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:10Speaker 3: Uh, well, tomorrow's Thanksgiving, so they're gonna do some recovery
- 4:13Speaker 3: stuff in the morning and they'll have the day to
- 4:15Speaker 3: themselves on Thanksgiving dinner. And then this was a vote
- 4:19Speaker 3: they voted. It was either swim with the dolphins or
- 4:22Speaker 3: swim with these little miniature steimy pigs. And there it
- 4:27Speaker 3: was a closed vote, but the pigs won.
- 4:28Speaker 5: The pigs won over dolphins.
- 4:30Speaker 2: Because they did the dolphins the last time last year.
- 4:33Speaker 5: Is that what Maggie did today? So they're gonna go.
- 4:36Speaker 2: So they're gonna go, I guess, to some island, and
- 4:39Speaker 2: you let them have a vote.
- 4:41Speaker 5: I did.
- 4:42Speaker 3: They had the choice. They could choose either dolphin. I
- 4:44Speaker 3: don't care which they do, so it doesn't matter to me.
- 4:46Speaker 3: I only give them votes when it doesn't matter, so
- 4:49Speaker 3: that didn't matter to me.
- 4:50Speaker 2: They could choose. So that'll be uh Friday, Okay, Yeah,
- 4:55Speaker 2: they'll do that on Friday.
- 4:56Speaker 5: Yeah, nice, all right, and then back to reality on Saturday.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Yes, well, yeah, go home. I'm going. I'm recruiting tomorrow.
- 5:04Speaker 2: I'm leaving tomorrow. Oh my goodness, my reality starts a
- 5:07Speaker 2: little bit sooner. No rest for the weary.
- 5:09Speaker 1: Are you on our flight, by the way, I don't
- 5:11Speaker 1: time you head, noe.
- 5:15Speaker 5: Okay, we're at to forty one.
- 5:17Speaker 3: I'm just going to you know, I'm going to a
- 5:20Speaker 3: Thanksgiving tournament because I can see like eight good teams
- 5:24Speaker 3: in one site. That saves time, you know, and there's
- 5:27Speaker 3: some extra time here, so all right, it makes sense.
- 5:30Speaker 5: Well, Happy Thanksgiving, all right.
- 5:31Speaker 3: It might not make sense tomorrow when I'm leaving, sense
- 5:34Speaker 3: to me when I decided it, all right, but happy Thanksgiving.
- 5:37Speaker 2: To everyone and to you guys, and we appreciate everything.
- 5:40Speaker 5: All right. Thanks. Come back and wrap things up here
- 5:42Speaker 5: for the Bahamas in just a minute
