This is a big time of year. You've got to win.

This is a pretty resilient team. They have great attitudes, ... It's still great basketball
|
This is special. This university has had so many good teams, but it never quite worked out. Tonight it did.

This is the first time in 28 years as a head coach I've lost a player halfway through the season. It's something that I personally take responsibility for. I feel bad about it. My job now is to make sure that Chris does a good job in school this semester and is successful with whatever he wants to do after school is out.

This is the first time in 28 years I've been in this situation. It's something I take personal responsibility for. He'll be missed because he's a four-year senior who has played on some really good teams.

Thornton's really tough to guard when he puts it on the floor. He's just a good player.
|
To get it to 11 was good. We worked hard to get there.
|
Travis was suspended because he was where he shouldn't have been, but you're innocent until proven guilty in this country.
|
We (had) a little lull there and they got some momentum. When you have momentum at home, that lead goes quick, and it really went quick. For us to hang on like that and win the game - that was big.
|
We decided last night to help inside because they're pretty physical. We knew they like to go inside so it was a defensive test for us, too.
|
We did a great job early ? especially with our defense. We got the big lead but then we began to get a little sloppy.
|
We didn't do it tonight, but it doesn't mean we are a bad basketball team because a lot of teams that were ranked higher than us couldn't get it done.
|
We didn't make a shot. We had them but we didn't make them. That's the way it is. You have to make shots.
|
We didn't shoot well tonight, but we didn't execute well either. It's a team thing; everyone on the court has to take responsibility.
|
We don't know what we have to win. And nobody else knows, either. Despite what all those people who get paid to act like they know, they don't know. The selection committee knows who's going to be in the tournament. Or they will know. They're the only people who really know.
