Reading the quotes from Kelly Graves following the loss to Arizona....."We won this league three years in a row. You think they want payback? When they see us down they are going to attack us and make us pay." We played hard to the finish, we just didn't play that well."
So, it's all about Oregon and what they did or didn't do! Not one word mentioned about giving Arizona credit for the win!! Unlike SR to continually credit the other team for playing well and getting the win!! Just something that I always admire about Scott.

Graves did say that UA was more athletic at every position. I've always felt that that is the biggest copout. My guys try to do it with smarts and they work really hard, but the other guys were just more athletic. They were born that way and my guys will just have to overcome the other teams natural gifts by working harder and using their intellect to overcome the other teams natural advantages. I watched a chunk of the game and UA just outhustled UO. With Prince and Sabally inside UO got outrebounded, that's desire and not athleticism.

Beav74...I've always hated when coaches don't give the other team credit. You know this program as well as anyone,and yes...Scott shows class win or lose. I fully respect him for that. He and what he stands for are easy to root for.
