Richmond Head Coach Chris Mooney
On the Game
"We're disappointed in the effort and intensity. I wish we were able to capitalize on the Seton Hall victory. The lack of intensity and effort just wasn't there. We have to take pride in what we're doing. We can't need any outside things to motivate us. You have to be able to motivate yourself, and set goals for both you and your team."
"I don't think that was Richmond basketball, at least I hope not. We did not take pride in what we were doing out there. We have to work hard and keep progressing. Today was definitely a step back."
On Arkansas State's Press
"That caused a lot of confusion with our guards. It was a soft press, but it definitely confused us. Guys were dribbling when they should be passing, and passing when they should have been dribbling. When team's sense that confusion, they attack and they were able to take us out of what we were trying to do offensively."
On Oumar Sylla Trying To Get Comfortable At Point Guard
"It's difficult, he had six turnovers tonight, that can't happen. If he is having trouble, then we're not getting into our offense and we're not getting in any kind of rhythm. He needs to continue to improve. He's never played point guard before, but he's our point guard."
