It was difficult trying to get use to their defense, especially with Northwestern's zone trap. The trap was really tough and it took us out of our rhythm. It was my job to try to throw that trap off.

I'm not saying it's the city's fault. But I'm saying it's the city's fault that those two dogs are walking around the city attacking people. And I think that the city should do something about helping her to the best of their ability.

We were going to pick up and try to trap, but we didn't get into the trap. The idea was to trap him and make him pass it. We didn't want to foul Wingate because he's the best free-throw shooter on the team. I thought we had a five-second call, but they gave him a timeout instead.

I was kind of concerned about them because we didn't know much about them. I said before the game I hope we aren't walking into a bear trap. But we jumped on them early and I think that helped.

He's not just coming just to ask for a lot more money here or there, ... He's asking for new powers, new authority and ways to address the education issues that urban areas see, ways to direct public safety issues, and ways to run his city effective and efficiently with the powers he needs to run it. And that's going to be a message heard by the Republicans that control the General Assembly.

To suggest you are more in danger walking through a Scots city than inner city America is ludicrous. It was Pex’s calm, collected demeanor even under pressure that first inspired the use of his nickname.

This has extraordinary significance in its own right: Chris will be the second most powerful person in the largest city in America. In terms of raw political power, the size of the city budget and the Council's powers, she will become the most powerful openly lesbian or gay official in the country.

It caused consternation (among the judges) that the City Council was looking at it, and they want a separation of powers, ... They're the judicial branch, and they don't seem to think the executive branch or the legislative branch of city government should be looking at them.

There are some similarities. Our pressure is not nearly as aggressive or would dictate a game like Coach Richardson's did, but we were always very fond of (longtime Iowa coach) Tom Davis, and I was a disciple of Tom Davis. (Richardson's teams would) trap and re-trap and trap again. We gamble a little bit when the ball's 94 feet away from our basket.

This has all the markings of a trap game. You're going to a bowl game that is hosted by a school on their home turf where they don't lose football games. We're walking into an ambush and we are going to be well aware of that.

What a great outcome for the kids. It was a gamble to trap, but it almost worked the first time, so we tried to trap again.

They score more goals off caused turnovers and the trap than settles. It's really important that we break that and that our trap is successful as well.

Our half-court trap is our staple. It gets teams out of their normal offensive sets, which can lead to turnovers. (The trap) is what has got us here and we will use it in the future.

That was a momentum shift for NFA with that run in the second quarter. They went to that half-court trap and that gave us a lot of problems. That (trap) slowed us down and created the tempo they wanted to play at.
