They said the way I handled the academic side of things made them realize that I wasn't messing around, and it carried over onto the court. They realized that I meant what I said and I was going to follow through and hold them accountable. They all said that really translated onto the court in practice. When I talked about how we would attack the ball from our help side or how we were going to play a ball screen, they knew it wasn't negotiable. There was no doubt about the message..."
