Ben Darnell w Dan Hurley - UNH

Ben Darnell w Coach Hurley after the less than stellar win over UNH Saturday Night

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome back to Yukon men's basketball post game. Alongside Ben Darnell.
Right here is coach Dan Hurley. Coach, I thought the
second half defense was really great, but I know you
have a different standard than I do. How was the
game plan on that front? And did it live up
to your standards?

Speaker 2 (00:14):
I mean, listen, I thought we for the most part,
we we tried really hard. We just didn't play well
and uh, you know, we just we have individual breakdowns
and one on one situations where you know, we didn't
guard the ball well enough, and then obviously offensively, you know,
we didn't make shots, and uh, you know, just it
was it was a considerable distance from the standard win.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Samson. Johnson and Terris Reid are both on the bench
with the foul trouble. How limiting is that for your
offense and defense?

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Yeah, I mean it was a I mean, it just
it was surprising the calls, to be honest with you,
you know, and then obviously Samson, this is an issue
that you know, he's got to stop doing it. He's
got to stop bawling people. Uh, you're not allowed to
all people, and you know, it's just it's hard to
play without a center.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Speak on Jayden Ross's game tonight. He was a plus
twenty five in the stat sheet. Was it a breakout game?
Was this something you were expecting.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Yeah, I mean I've been pumping them up and I'm
just happy he didn't bury me tonight. Some of these
other guys didn't play as well, but I think you
could see like his second half. I mean, he had
some jitters in the first half, but you saw like
that's what a Yukon wing supposed to look like.
