"I'm not going to say that I was intimidated. But once you start playing with them you realize they want you to do well, they want you to score, and they want you to do good things. It's a team sport and they want to win, just like I do." ************ "I'm trying to make the adjustment (from high school) and every day go harder and harder," Coombs said. "At first you feel like you don't know things but Coach always says as long as you go hard the other things we'll be OK. You need to have a different intensity level." "I was just talking to my parents the other night. It is just totally different than anything I've been part of. In high school, you can glide through things and your talent will carry you. Here you have to be talented plus match it with a high intensity level. And I think there's a higher intesnity level here than at other schools. There's always a higher goal that they are asking you to achieve so you need to get close to it."
