Vic Schaeffer press conference:

He talks about their recruiting, discusses the problems of transfers and "instant gratification" players, and gets to Stanford late at 27:30.  He doesn't say much of anything about strategy.  "Attention to details" and "relaxed and focused."   "You can't be all tied up...turn it loose....nobody gives you a snowball's chance in hell...play the game you've always played..." etc.  Clearly, he is concerned that his young team will come in intimidated and he wants them to relax and play the game. 

He seems to have a lot of respect for Tara, and has a folksy good-ol' boys demeanor.  Interesting.  He probably understands player psychology pretty well.

This was the video after their 130+ point win earlier this week:

At 8:00 minutes he discusses using the game to get ready for Stanford, and discusses his players a bit more.  A very young but very talented team.  They started 2 freshmen and he raved about the other 2 frosh as well.  The coach and players seemed absolutely ebullient.

I think we will have a very competitive game tomorrow, a serious test.
