It's been hard around here.

We are trying to make some adjustments with our on-field leadership and our leadership roles. We are specifying some things that we want to do and that we haven't done in a few games.

I felt -- and still feel -- Duke is synonymous with excellence. I felt like my goals in coaching matched Duke's goals -- that we could compete for a national championship.

We have a lot of people that can score. A lot of those kids have played together for four years. ... They share the ball well and reach each other really well.

One of our players, her brother's on the team. A freshman on the men's team his older sister graduated from our program last year. We have a couple of kids who have known kids on that program for their entire lives.

Both of them have very prolific offenses. I think being prepared for that and having two very tough games over the span of three days is something to be worried about, but that is what we have depth for and this is what we use it for.

We're very dynamic. It's definitely the most athletic team I've had. It's the best offensive group I've had. It's the deepest team I've had.

Honestly, it's one of the hardest things I've ever had to watch or see. It's so profoundly sad on so many different levels. And it's in our face all the time, because we share a building and facility. To my kids' credit, they've done an unbelievable job of staying focused in the midst of all this.
