Underwood: It's been a productive couple days. A few days of practice. Getting ready for an 8-4 FAU team. Nice ballclub. They're good.
Underwood: They will probably test our ball-screen defense like it hasn't been tested in while.
Nice variety of post players who can pick 'n roll & pick 'n pop. Guards are downhill drivers.
Spent a lot of time there after we botched about every ball-screen vs. Mizzou.
Underwood: The last 7 min of the Missouri game was a lack of discipline. We did some random things.. Out of position, gambling for steals.
We had 7 consecutive plays where we made the wrong play. And Missouri made us pay.
Underwood: You can't have 6 assists and win a game. But if you give me the 6 misses that Kipper had from three... He probably makes 6 in a row with those looks.
Underwood on progress through the first third of the season: If I'm putting a grade on it... It's probably a B- or B. We're better. It's been a mixed bag.
Underwood: The last couple of games from Ayo... I don't think we'll see that Ayo anymore. He's had a tremendous week of practice.
[7th missed game] Underwood: Tevian (Jones) will not be in tomorrow's game.
Underwood: Most days I like our leadership. And yet, there's still a piece we're still looking for.
Underwood: When you're down late in the game & things get really tough.. There's a silent leadership that comes with stepping up & making a FT.
There's a winning bravado & competitive leadership. Wanting to win everything. We need that.
