The one thing that shocked me when he first got to campus and we started doing individual workouts was his ability to shoot the basketball. As the year went on his percentage from three was poor but he's a rhythm shooter, when he gets into a rhythm he makes them.
More Quotes from Matt Painter:
We sent them tickets to the NFC Championship (Game), hoping they would go there, (but) I don't think that's going to work. We haven't paid much attention to it. You always assume someone is going to play. You always assume they're going to be 100 percent.Matt Painter
I thought we got things in the high post. I thought we got things around the basket. Obviously, we got some good, clean looks for 3s and I didn't think they were rushed 3s, either. We just didn't step up and make them.

Minnesota looks like a team that has kind of redefined the roles a little bit. They look like they have more balance in the starting five. They know their roles. You know who the shooter is, the screener, the post-up guy, the spot shooter, and they're having more success doing that.

I think the key was their aggressive play to start the second half. And their ability to get steals.

He has a skill level ... a nice-looking jump shot. He can go get the basketball and make athletic plays. But at times, he is just out there. He floats sometimes ... comes and goes. When he is focused and playing hard, he is a very good player.

This is a very meaningful victory for us. After beating Minnesota we have made some improvements, but we didn't have anything to show for it. Now we have something to show for it and hopefully this can keep us going.
