from Dana Altman “I like guys no matter how many people are in the stands or what time of year it is, they just want to go play. You’ve got to have a passion at this level. This isn’t the NCAA Tournament, it’s not even the NIT, but the passion showed for the game by Joe and E.J. and some of the guys, that’s what you’re looking for, guys that want to compete.”

Although he may have just misspoken it appears he isn't totally satisfied with the effort and dedication given by some unnamed players on this team.

He said that on Jerry's postgame show last night, but he didn't emphasize the 'some'. He mentioned that practice had been light Sunday and Monday just trying to get their legs back after the Pac-10 Tournament, and he was expecting a sluggish start. He said he thought the team's effort was very good after the break.

Re: Interesting quote
I don't think he was exactly calling them out, more like he was imploring his team to play harder the next game.

It's the CBI....
They were playing Webber State....
It's going to be hard to get fired up for that.
