On difference from gam e played in Des Moines:
"We were a little off tonight. We missed some shots we would normally make, but it was an all around good effort by Drake and their defense."
On Jordan's missed freethrows:
"He can't hang his head on that. He's got to move forward, he'll get those next game."
On Drake's Josh Young:
"He's a good player and we tried our best to defend him. He just made some big shots in the second half."
On 14 turnovers in the first half:
"We had a lot of turnovers, like 14 in the first half alone, but were still in control. In the second half they just came out and made shots."
On tonights game in comparision to the game in Des Moines:
"We knew it wasn't going to be like the last game. That was a long time ago and Drake has won some big games since then. Drake did a good job on defense and covering us up. We had 14 turnovers in the first half. We're averaging 11 a game and we had 14 in just the first half."
On outlook for the rest of the season:
"We are still going to focus on one game at a time. That won't change and we'll get ready for Sienna now. We can't play two games at once, so we'll just focus on our next game."
On Jordan's missed freethrows:
"He has been in that situation at some point in his career before. I was confident in him as was the rest of the team. We had forty minutes to get those points. The game wasn't decided in the last five seconds."
