I still feel like we have to get that win at Miami. |
I think that's the biggest challenge because we definitely thought we were in the NCAA Tournament. Guys really don't want to be in the NIT, but it's something to build on for next year. |
I truly feel like we have done enough to get in the tournament. |
I was just trying to celebrate with the fans. I didn't know they were going to rush the court. |
I'm being more assertive. It's something I can do. I'm just recognizing my potential. |
It happened so quick. We turned the ball over, they made threes on the other end, and just like that we're out of the game. |
It would have meant a lot to us, to beat the No.. 2 team on their home court, that would increase our chances of getting to The Dance. That's where we want to get. |
It's learning experience. Once you have all those close games, something clicks. You learn from it and you execute down the stretch. |
It's not just the coaches who are holding the players accountable. The players, we're holding each other accountable, too. That's a big difference as opposed to last year. We'd be arguing and there would be a lot of negativity. Who was getting the shots? Who was getting the minutes? Now, we're just together and it doesn't really matter who scores the points. |
It's very important for us. We're known as a team around the league that doesn't play well on the road. We have to get that monkey off our backs. |
Looking back on the (Boston College) game, we could have easily won. It felt great to go out and score 37 points, but overall, it was a disappointment, because we did not win the game. |
My knee felt great. I did a lot of warming up. Once it got loose, it felt great. |
Now the whole team is punished. |
Part of it was the knee and part of it (was) they did a good job. They had their zone, which was very hard for me to attack and get in the red zone. |
This is definitely the biggest game because I feel like this is one of the best seasons we've had. |
