Re: Coach Tovarich 2.0 CH2K8 Career Legacy
@ Lytche Athletic Center Princess Anne, MD
Tovarich: I'd like to take credit for their late collapse, but I don't think we had anything to do with. They got our lead from 7 down to 1, then we scored 16? in a row and they couldn't hit a shot until the last 2 minutes when they were done. Reporter: Your big guys had a good game. Would you like to praise them or just blame the other team for being bad? Tovarich: They did a good job taking advantage of the opposition's similar lack of skills. So both? Reporter: They're not motivating you to move the offense to being less dependent on 3's? Tovarich: This works against St. Francis and Delaware State. It won't be working against our next 5 opponents. So, no, I likely won't get away from that. We'll be grossly outmatched in the trenches for the next 5 games I assume. Reporter: You don't play another home game for 44 days and haven't been too competitive away from home so far. What kind of ideas do you have to play better away from home? Tovarich: It's common amongst most teams. I don't know what to do. We'll be slowing them all down as long as we can. Studbucket: Maybe try some 3-2 or 1-2-2 zone? Tovarich: Sure, can't hurt. I imagine we're going to have a lot of defensive problems in these next 5 games when we're big underdogs. I may as well try every combo of numbers they've invented for zone at some point and experiment.

Re: Coach Tovarich 2.0 CH2K8 Career Legacy
@ Towson Center Towson, MD
Tovarich: Not much traveled with us as usual. Rough shooting night, particularly down low. It felt like none of the big guys could do anything. Funny how it seemed to happen to all of them. Their big guys must be incredible to cause all those misses with few fouls. Reporter: You didn't try any zone. Tovarich: Wish I felt like I could have but with that Thornton guy going for 18 at half, I saw no good reason to possibly leave him even more open, not that many was working either. We stayed tight on him, had a hand in his face frequently and it felt like nothing we did was going to matter and he was going to go off. Reporter: The in-season recruiting week ended. Anything to share? Tovarich: No. I thought we might get one commit, we still could get him. Don't know why he didn't sign yet. Hopefully no one else ends up swooping in. Most people we were going for ended up signing somewhere, so we had to re-start for the most part. Reporter: Moore and Mirjacic each made the most of their minute of play. Any faith being restored in them? Tovarich: It was nice of them both to contribute, but it doesn't change that it's better for all involved if they...I'd say transfered, but if you can't play here, you can't play anywhere else either, so pursued some other opportunities outside of basketball next season, and by playing them too much, they might get the false sense of security in their spot on the team should they attempt to come back. Reporter: Do you expect to win any of your 4 tournament games coming up? Tovarich: I don't see a path to winning either game in El Paso. We're quite outmatched by all those teams. If we're lucky, we get a favorable 3rd place game in Orlando.

Re: Coach Tovarich 2.0 CH2K8 Career Legacy
@ Sun Bowl Classic Semifinal Don Haskins Center El Paso, TX
Tovarich: It's hard to explain things you see sometimes. Popovic missed his first SEVEN shots, all from point-blank range. I can't explain how someone 6'10" can get blocked by the rim twice, how he can jump and all it has to do is fall off his finger to go in and he somehow doesn't let it roll enough. It's like there was an invisible shield over the basket, but ONLY when the big guys shot. Incredible. Speaking of incredible, their defense to force all these missed shots. AMAZING. Great interior defense I think I've ever seen. Reporter: They tried to turn that into a track meet, did that wear you down a bit? Tovarich: Yeah, that first 7 minutes where they pressed and we inexplicably were forbidden from making a layup was too fast. Had to go all the way down the bench. We slowed it down as best we could after of course. Can't be doing that, as painful as it can be to stand around and dribble while the clock runs. Reporter: Playing the track meet game didn't go that badly, are you sure you can't make more use of the bench and play that way? Tovarich: If I thought that was better, that's what we'd do. Next year we'll have some more bodies and I may be able to run up and down more and press occasionally.

Re: Coach Tovarich 2.0 CH2K8 Career Legacy
vs. Sun Bowl Classic 3rd Place Game Don Haskins Center El Paso, TX
Tovarich: Another team shooting 60%, I guess we just don't know how to play defense. Guys did a good job keeping it close and we missed the 3 at the buzzer to go to OT, but we did a good job just keeping it that close. Tried some pressing at the end because we felt fresh enough thanks to Buffalo calling some timeouts for us. Won't be a long term possibility, but it got us a few turnovers today and once I have some more bodies, I look forward to trying it some more. Reporter: No Mirjacic and Moore again? Tovarich: Nope. Too close of a game. Reporter: The first half you slowed it way down. Was Buffalo really worthy of such a tactic to keep the game close? Tovarich: Compared to us, all of our opponents are. Reporter: Is heading into conference season potentially on a 5-game losing streak going to make things more difficult? Tovarich: I don't think so. Maybe some pep talks are needed for the start of that. It's not like we expect to be 10-3 or something gaudy when we go in. That game back on December 1st being a conference game makes scheduling kind of a pain with the rules, so we have to play some tournaments to fill the gaps and we still have 12 days off coming after the Central Florida tournament and we're going to have a rough draw in any tournament no matter who we get, but getting the hosts twice in a row is a little tougher. |

Re: Coach Tovarich 2.0 CH2K8 Career Legacy
@ UCF Holiday Classic Semifinal Convocation Center Orlando, FL
Tovarich: That's the worst game I've ever been apart of in my life. Reporter: How was that team 3-6? Tovarich: Baffling isn't it? The Orlando Magic should be undefeated in college basketball easily. Reporter: Any positivies to take away? Tovarich: Nope. Everyone shot badly. I don't get how you can shoot 33% from point-blank range. Amazing defense. Tons of blocks. I hopefully can recruit someone who can make a layup. 45-21 on the boards was actually closer than I thought. It felt worse. I think they got offensive rebounds on 80% of their own missed shots. Officially it only gave them 6 blocks. It had to be closer to 16 and yet almost all without fouling. Incredible. Reporter: Is tomorrow's game winnable? Tovarich: Sure, I guess. They're 2-10, but they're still better than we are.

Re: Coach Tovarich 2.0 CH2K8 Career Legacy
vs. UCF Holiday Classic 3rd Place Game Convocation Center Orlando, FL
Tovarich: The big guys were able to make some layups tonight. It was nice to play another team who isn't big either. It's pretty depressing watching all these guys who may as well be Shaq compared to ours and not being able to do anything about it. Reporter: You're around .500 against the quality of teams you'll see the rest of the season. Is that encouraging? Tovarich: It makes me think we can win a few here and there. We're still picked to finish last for a reason. But at 5-8, we're tied for first in winning percentage. It's a rough conference but we contribute plenty to that. Reporter: Can this be the start of some momentum heading into conference play? Tovarich: We have two on the road up next. This was the first time we won a game away from home, so I wouldn't count on it. Reporter: Moore went 3-3. Tovarich: Yeah, I'm not saying I deserve an award or anything for letting him play and giving him the green light to shoot the wide open layups against the press at the end, but if anyone was losing faith in humanity, just remember the kindness I showed and feel warm and fuzzy about it. Reporter: How do you feel about how recruiting is going? Tovarich: Not great. We're on as many people as we can be and hopefully some fall through the cracks. I only got one guy I feel good about getting at the moment. It'll have to come together at the last minute in the offseason I fear. |

Re: Coach Tovarich 2.0 CH2K8 Career Legacy
LVJM Coliseum Winston-Salem, NC
Tovarich: Couldn't hit a 3. Couldn't rebound. Way too fast of a game. Reporter: Why can't you play well on the road? Tovarich: I imagine there are coaches who are a lot further into their career than 14 games like I am who still haven't found the answer to that. I don't know. Reporter: You did a good job getting their big guys in foul trouble in the first half. Why couldn't you do the same in the second? Tovarich: They must have made amazing adjustments. But we were so far behind the whole time we were shooting all sorts of 3's, so we weren't driving it in so much, especially when they finally stopped the full court press. Reporter: We saw some 1-3-1 zone. Is that going to continue? Tovarich: I don't know. Everyone shoots such a high percentage against us, it seems like zone just makes them more open. Not much works.
