"'Last the field for a game against 1. We had a similiar showing at Fordham." Phelps had praise remaining to give to his own team. "Our kids did a great job out there, they never quit, never let up, never panicked," the Notre Dame coach said. "We were down by 30 and started to comeback. The boys looked poised, they never quit hustling." But Phelps also recognized the basic weaknesses of his club, "We're in the midst of a rebuilding process right now and there's only one way to go--and that's up. "We lost 11 kids from last year's squad--seven graduated, two dropped out, and two are injured. "T he boys we have playing for us now shouldn't be. John Egart has leg injuries; the doctor said he would never play on this year's team and yet he's out there playing. Willie Townsend has a bad ankle and Mike Townsend has a bad back," said Phelps. Although the Irish failed to successfully compete with the Gamecocks in a run-and-shoot contest, and there was some speculation as to their being able to do so prior to the contest, Phelps stated that he had never con templated the usage of a stall. "6I don't stall against anybody unless it's to win. We went out there tonight to win and we tried to do so. When we stalled against UCLA it was a stall-to-win offense, not just a stall for stalling's sake."
