wasn't all that impressed with UNM. Here is what was posted by someone on the Lobo Lair that the HC said. As you might expect, they didn't take it very well. :mad:

Colorado State Pueblo coach Ralph Turner on New Mexico
Just saw this on Yahoo!

"[Neal] was a very proficient scorer. He has unlimited range, so you've got to get into him, chase him and make him bounce the ball. He's much less effective off the bounce than he is catching and shooting or coming off a ball screen for a pull-up jumper. You want to make him finish at the basket as much as possible. ... He is their major scoring threat. They're going to have to have guys step up and make plays other than Cullen, and he has to stay healthy. If he gets hurt, there's not another guy on their team where you put the ball in his hands and he's dangerous. They have other solid players, good players, but Cullen is clearly the most dynamic player on the team ... I don't know who the next best player on their team is after Cullen. [Tim] Williams was 6-for-7 from the field but a lot of that was point-blank layups against us because of our size. [Obij Aget] looks like a young deer just learning how to walk or run. Maybe a year down the road he'll be a force but right now he's having to learn to do everything. And of course he needs about 25-to-30 pounds of weight to compete at that level.... Defensively, they played some zone against us in the first half and almost all man in the second half. They're long and big, so going to the basket can be hard. They've got kids who are waiting for you to block shots."
