Sioux prepare to meet older, bigger Jayhawks

North Dakota men's basketball coach Rich Glas said he hoped his team could play well against Kansas at Allen Fieldhouse tonight, but it will have to do it without its mustard.
Chad Mustard, whose 16.8 points per game led the Sloux last year, was one of five seniors who graduated from a squad that went 23-8 for the season.
"You don't like to lose five seniors in one year, but we did, and those kids had a nice run," said coach Rich Glas. "We're very young, but we have three seniors back and
they're the only guys that played much for us last year."
Those seniors are guard Curtis Munlin, and forwards Tom Jacobson and Kyle Behrens. Jacobson is the leading returning scorer at 7.6 points per game. Behrens scored 7.2 per game and Munlin chipped in five points per game.
In addition to Mustard, Hunter Reinke and Marcus Travis were the only other double-digit scorers in the lineup. Both are gone.
The Sioux will have to catch up on their scoring somewhere, and Glas said he didn't know where it would come from.
"We don't have much returning as far as our scoring is concerned, and that is going to be a concern for us as we head into our
season," Glas said. "But 'I'll be disappointed if we tippy-toe around and don't make good shots when we have good looks at the basket. We need to play our best basketball, and if we get all nervous and uptight then (that won't happen)."
Glas said nerves might be a problem because his team was so young. Four freshmen, a junior college transfer and a redshirt junior are all on the squad. Five other redshirt freshmen are also on the roster.
"(Most of) the guys are basically freshmen so it's going to be quite an indoctrination for them, so we just told them we were going to play our butts off." Glas said. "I'd be disappointed if we didn't play hard. We just have to be fearless because there's no
excuse to be afraid. Let's just go play the best and see how we stack up."
Stacking up may not be the best choice of words considering Kansas' size advantage. The Jayhawks' front line features 7-foot-1 Eric Chenowith, and 6-10 Nick Collison and Drew Gooden. North Dakota's centers are 6-9 and 6-7.
Junior center Jeff Carey also may see increased playing time. Standing at 6-foot-10, Carey's extra height won't do anything to ease the Sloux's woes.
"One thing I do need to do is give Jeff Carey some more minutes," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. "(Against UCLA) he made a few bad passes in front of our basket, but he's been playing hard and I need
to get him some more minutes."
Regardless, Glas said his team would not alter its game plan to adjust to the Jayhawks' size advantage.
"We do a lot of the same things that they do, as far as their transition game," Glas said. "We're not going to do anything real different with our defense to try to do something in this game. Especially with such a young basketball team we've got to stick to the basics as to how we're going to defend, how we're going to do things. We can't get all hung up on Kansas because no matter what we do to them, they're gonna find a way to get it done. We just wanna go there and play hard; play well."
