On how Fulky and Yves have responded and led the team through all of this:
“We don’t have a guy on our team who is a loud and vocal leader. The loudest guy on our team is Uros. He’s talks the way we want him to talk on the court. If I had to pick someone who’s led us through this is Mary-Carter Eggert. You wouldn’t believe what she has done to help these guys. You have no idea. She works 18 hours a day delivering food here, there and everywhere. I think that’s where the real leadership has come from. And, our guys have been great knowing there isn’t anything we can do about it other than that we have to protect each other and those around us. So, her and Chad Newman—Chad has been unbelievable with it. Chad has struggled with it as much as anybody, but through this whole thing Dr. Klenck and this university have been unbelievable. They really have. I don’t know what we could have done differently. You hear them talk, they say it is what it is and they would tell you what I said earlier. There are a lot of people that have had to deal with it in a lot worse ways. They know people have lost their lives, because of it and they would tell—and they have taken it very seriously. Our guys have taken it really serious and they still take it serious, because we still don’t have herd immunity or anything. We still wear masks in the film room, we’re spread out and we’re doing everything the way we’re supposed to. You wouldn’t believe the amount of that has on into how we do our timeouts during games. There’s so many things that they have talked about how we do things, but the one constant has been our guys doing what they’re supposed to do. I admire them for it, but the real leaders have not been our players, but our administrators who have been phenomenal.”
