About how much he looks at everything, including the plan, after such a great loss…

Woodson: “Again, it was out of all plans. I thought they came out at the beginning, and they hit us, but we didn’t respond. And it didn’t get any better during the ball game, and as a coach I have to get this team better ready to go. I’m talking about from the beginning to the end. I look at the stats offensively, we just didn’t have anything from a perimeter perspective, and they had a lot to do with that because of their physicality. We can’t complain and play through it. We just have to toughen up a bit. If you’re 9-for-43 with your perimeter players, it’s going to be hard to beat anyone in college basketball.”

About how the floodgates opened in the second half…

Woodson: “Well, defensively it’s always been our signature, and we just didn’t have that tonight. I mean, from ball screens to ball movement, we just didn’t take anything away, and we were pretty good at that.” We had nothing for Louisville tonight. I have to give them credit because they played extremely well. We have to go back and regroup somehow learn but don’t be in a hurry I mean you have a quick turnaround. We play the winner (loser) between Gonzaga and West Virginia tomorrow, and we have to see what we are made of, see if we can recover and bounce back.

On why Myles Rice, Kanaan Carlyle and Trey Galloway combined for just three points…

Woodson: “Again, it’s not just those two. We went 9-for-43 with our perimeter game, and that’s hard to overcome. I mean, you’re not going to beat anyone that way, and then you compound it with 23 turnovers. Something – that’s probably more turnovers than we’ve had since I’ve been here as coach. That’s tough. You’re not going to beat a lot of teams if you run it 23 times and your perimeter play is 9-for-43. Those are things that can be fixed. We We just have to clean them up and see if we can get back on track tomorrow.”

On how he tells his team to put this behind them and move on…

Woodson: “Well, it’s tough. These are young men, and I understand. But the games aren’t going anywhere. I mean, we have a game tomorrow night, and we gotta go back and put them through this film session and see if we can make it.” learn and see if I can get them over the hump and get them going again tomorrow night, because these games come so quickly and you can’t run away from them. So I’m not going to let them forget this game, because this was embarrassing and you gotta give Louisville credit because they did their utmost did our best, but we didn’t play basketball in Indiana, I didn’t think so.

If 23 turnovers are a product of the team’s obscurity and if they’re too far behind in that area…

Woodson: “Again, I’m not using that as an excuse. We’ve had a few games where we played good and bad basketball, but at the end of the day you still have to make sure you get the basketball when you’re going to score the ball. And 23 times we didn’t have opportunities to to do that because we had handed the ball to our opponent. So we just have to come back and get better in that area and let our guys hit shots and feel good. But defensively we have to do better got out of trouble and that’s for me unacceptable.”

On what he thought of Indiana’s competitiveness as a team…

Reneau: “I think we had great intentions. We had a great scout going into the game. I think we just didn’t execute coach Woodson’s game plan, especially on defense where we were guarding certain people because we knew what we did.” “I made a few mistakes myself, so it was just a lack of focus on the scout we had, and just not giving it everything while we were on the field.”

On how he tried to reverse Indiana’s lack of focus midway through the game…

Woodson: “Well, that’s not easy. We just could never get it going. I thought we had some big successes in the second half, and they just countered back. Then it just got out of hand. We couldn’t making shots. We turned the ball over, and it just led to easy buckets for them. Once they got into the cushion, they felt good about their game. So it’s just something we have to learn from because we can no return Get this game. Like I said, tomorrow Going to work on it again tomorrow so I have to get this ball club ready to play tomorrow night.”

If he was frustrated again about Indiana’s low assist numbers after saying so after the last game…

Woodson: “Well, it’s hard. Because again, you only have ten assists because you turn it over 23 times. Those are chances that you give yourself the chance to score, and we just didn’t do that. That’s just… we I think we’ve averaged about 11-12 turnovers per game since we started, which is about where you’d like to be, or a little less than that. But 23 is just way too much for a lot of teams to be in to beat college basketball by doing that.”

On his message to the team after his frustration with the Eastern Illinois game and what led to Indiana not being ready for this game…

Woodson: “Well, after that we had some tough practices, and again, practices are what they are. We work our butts off in practices, and I push the guys to do the right thing and you hope that when you get to the ball game, everything It’s just kind of a flow. Tonight we went backwards, and I just have to get us forward.”

About how difficult it is as players not to put pressure and force things when something goes wrong…

Reneau: “Yeah, I mean, that just makes the game worse for us. People trying to do it themselves, it just creates more turnovers. You might get a few buckets here and there, and I mean, our focus as a group is I’ll try to play together from now on and continue from there.”
