NORTH TEXAS vs. TEXAS A&M-INTERNATIONAL
Friday, December 28, 2007 / The Super Pit
JOHNNY JONES QUOTES
“We watched A&M International on tape and recognized that they mirror us in many ways. We knew this would be a good challenge for us coming back from the break. We got off to the kind of start that we wanted originally, however we played poorly to start the second half. After our first time out, I thought the guys put together a good stretch of 10-12 minutes wherein we were real solid. Overall this was the type of effort we were looking for as we head back into conference play. We are once again on the road however against a very good Troy team,”
On Justin Howerton
“Justin played very well for us today. He tied his season high in minutes played and nearly had a double-double with eight points and 13 rebounds,”
On starting Collin Dennis
“Collin was playing very well at the beginning of training camp before injuring himself just prior to our first exhibition game. He has been solid all year and gives us the added advantage of experience. He is a fourth year junior and has played at this level before. He can score and is a solid defender. He is probably our best perimeter defender.”
