Xavier Players
C.J. Anderson
“We took a lot of pride of getting a lot of stops in a row [on defense in the first half].”
On XU’s 58.8 percent free throw shooting
“As the year goes by we’ll get better as a team. We’re not concerned right now. We know it’s something we have to work on.”
On his offensive game
“That’s my style of play, to attack [on offense]. I just wanted to come and play aggressive.”
Jamel McLean
“Our size alone helps us get rebounds and tips. We’re big and aggressive.”
Kenny Frease
“Jamel [McLean] is a real good passer. We really complement each other well. I think we can really wear teams down getting the ball inside with me, [Jason] Love, C.J. [Anderson], and Jamel. After 20 times posting them up, they start to get tired.”
Xavier Head Coach Sean Miller
“I was excited about our first game, being 1-0. I think we really improved in a week. The story for us was that we played good defense. I thought two newcomers on the front line, Jamel McLean and Kenny Frease, did a great job. Their impact on the game was significant for us. The word for us is improvement: how much better than we were are we?”
On Kenny Frease
“He’s very intelligent. He has great hands. If a guy can’t catch, I can’t make him catch. If a guy can’t think, I can’t make him think. Kenny can do both.”
On Terrell Holloway
“Terrell’s working really hard. Defensively he was much more active and added to our team defense.”
