Oliver Purnell Quotes on Opportunity (4 Quotes)

There is disappointment and frustration any time you go out early in your conference tournament, a tournament we felt good about doing very well in. But we still have an opportunity to play for an outstanding championship.

The fact that we don't have to travel is certainly an advantage for us and gives us an opportunity to be well-rested and well prepared.

If we played tomorrow, they wouldn't be 3 for 18. When that happens, you stay with it and try to make some hay out of the opportunity. You're always slightly surprised when good shooters miss some shots, but it happens. That is why you throw the zone out there.

Once again against Miami our inability to make shots hurt us. I thought we got good looks, we got the ball inside. We had 24 offensive rebounds. That's a lot of point-blank opportunities. We just couldn't get it to go down.
