Head Coach Stan Joplin

"This isn't the same team that we had earlier this season and that's very disturbing. The last two games we've played really bad and we have to bounce back. I don't the team that I'm seeing right now and I have to make sure we turn this around. I know this is a tough stretch in our schedule but we used to be a better shooting and a better defensive team than we're showing."

"We knew Akron could shoot the ball from outside and that we had to contain Romeo Travis inside. We also had to get back in transition and get some post touches. They didn't really surprise us with anything they did offensively. It seemed like we just relaxed and we're a step slow."

"We need a more productive inside game and get more shots out of our post players. We have to find a happy medium. We're taking the path of least resistance. We have to have an inside game when our outside shots shots aren't falling. We're not attacking on offense like we should be."
