 Hello and welcome to the Gary Stewart show presented by Buffalo Wildlings. I'm Gary Royce showing my students and headman's basketball coach Gary Stewart. The coach we're in the thick of conference play right now and talk about maybe the results haven't been quite what you were hoping for. But talk about the team and how you've been playing right now. Well, it's been a real struggle. We've ran into a brick wall here in the last couple weeks and got to get back, got to find a way to work ourselves back to a situation where we're in one or two possessions. Because right now we're kind of getting beaten every faster of the game. We're getting off the tough start. We're going to get off the good start. Then we have a rough patch during the middle of the game and haven't been able to get a turn to get on it today. Yeah, yeah, I think it's one of the things I've noticed, especially at home, is you might play well for stretches. I know the wider game jumped out to a pretty good size lead. Let them back in. Like you said, I think of the struggle right now is maybe trying to play that 40-minute game. You know, you play well in stretches, but even lately, the stretches where you played well, it's after. Okay, maybe the game's out of reach at that point. So, just talking about how you get more consistency out of your team. Well, I think that's the million dollar question, Greg. We're searching and again, I think when you go through something like this, you tend to point fingers and you tend to blame others, but there hasn't been any of that. I really feel like our guys have practiced hard and are tentative. You know, if anything, I would say that the head coach hasn't hit the right buttons yet to get the most out of the team. And I certainly will continue to do that. And we're excited about what the rest of the season has to store for us. You've got to be forward-thinking in this business. And we're capable of playing a lot better and I think that's the thing that we hang our hat on. Yeah, second half of the season, you know, going through the conference schedule for the second time, you know, four games at home, starting with Alvernia on Wednesday night, you know, and it seems you've played at home a little bit better. Maybe you've played on the road just fine. Yeah, but where we are, Greg, it's not really about the opponent. It's about us and trying to execute better and try to minimize the bad periods in the game. Maybe go through a situation where it's a 6-0 run or 7 or 8-0 run as opposed to a double-figure run that we've ran into here the last couple of games. Yeah, yeah, certainly, you know, everybody in the Mac is good and, you know, everybody's going to kind of make that run so you have to prepare for it. Like you said, try to limit that. Yeah, we expect it to be better. But you are who you are and we recognize that we have some things that we need to address and and we are working on them diligently and hopefully we'll play our best basketball here moving forward. Yeah, all right coach. Well, I think so as always for your time. My best luck starting Wednesday and I will chat again soon. Thank you, Greg. All right for Gary Stewart. I'm Greg Royce. This has been the Gary Stewart show.
