It was very informal, stand around, so couldn't type. I caught what I could, but if the beat writers have quotes, those are more accurate, I summarized.
Here you go:
Joe Coleman
I played pretty good, had 3 to's, so need some decision making
I know how the college game works and it's easier for me now
Worked on a lot of ball handling, coming off screens, shooting in the off season.
Tubby said we had about 10 to's, eliminate them as much as possible. Limit their 3 pt attempts too.
Trevor Mbakwe:
When I make a cut, sometime it will be in the back of my head.
Joe is playing with a lot of confidence
I have faith in this team, I know how they work. I didn't expect the attention it got
When asked if the offer still on the table for paying back his scholarship? No comment (laughing).
I think I could be a big piece if how far we go.
I would not say I'm 100 %. I'm not as explosive as the goals I've set for myself.
Tubby Smith:
Tubby: on lack of Trevor's minutes..I don't care about the minutes, I don't pay attention. As long as we win, that's all I care about.
Tubby: hope Trevor reaches his full potential. Thought he could be a 1st round draft pick last yr, 1st one in a while here.
Tubby: missed Trevor's dunk. He needs to get better at his defense. Liked his lateral quickness. #gophers
Tubby: Joe has gotten stronger, a year older, he's a kid that's committed. His brother Dan works with him all the time.
Tubby: Joe Coleman came ready to play. He's our most consistent player in practice. #gophers
Tubby: the things we are most concerned about is taking care of the basketball, we did a poor job. #gophers
