Q1 Ranking the team at number one
We have Roddy here as well.
I'm not sure how it works if Arizona would be bumped up, but I definitely feel like we should be bumped up to 1. But if not, then it's fine.
Q2 Morez Johnson's defensive versatility
In other words, what Morez does, he's in almost every roster right now.
Yeah, he's just a dog. He could guard all 5 positions. I think that's what makes him different. We could put him on the point guard and he'll lock up a point guard. So I think that's what makes him so unique.
Q7 Transition defense practice
Dusty said that you practiced transition defense on Sunday. If I'm not mistaken, I think Rutgers had zero fast-break points in this game. I mean, obviously it worked. What was that practice like?
Just emphasizing transition defense. We feel like, I think statistically, we're the number one defense in the country, and that was our weak point in transition. So, and now if we can hold teams to zero fast break points, I think it'll make it even better for us.
