I'm just happy to be in the NCAA Tournament. This is terrific for us to go back-to-back years. |
I'm trying to stress with (my team) how good this win is. |
I've got to think they're certainly good enough to be in there. |
If he can't play because he's got to make a delivery or whatever, we'll play on through it. We want Kevin and Heather to have a healthy baby, and we prefer that much more than a healthy game. |
If we're shooting well, we're a tough out. |
In games like this there are little three or four minute spans when you've got to be mentally tough enough when that other team is really challenging you. They're distracting your game and you can't give in and I thought we gave in a couple of times and it will be a great thing for us to learn from. |
In the first half I thought we were just a little lethargic. That created a little bit of a gap. In the second half they only got four offensive rebounds and we played our tails off. We just couldn't make shots drop. |
In the long run I'll have to see if it wears down our team. Jim's got a point, but on the other hand the exposure of college basketball is everywhere and we want to be a part of that. |
It felt like 10 years ago that we had beaten a really good team. We didn't have that quality win yet. |
It is not a gimmick. I wouldn't compare it to a wishbone, I'd say it is more like the fun and gun because they spread you out and they are going to shoot the 3-pointer 25 times. |
It looks to me like a Sweet 16 group. It's incredible how this has played out. |
It seemed like any time they needed a hoop they threw it up in the air, over top of us and one of their guys came down with it. Any time the ball was above the rim, it was theirs. We had no chance of getting a rebound unless it came down under the rim. |
It seems like a year ago that we played. I don't know if it's an advantage playing a team a second time. |
It sure wasn't a beautiful game. (Pitt) had 19 turnovers and we couldn't throw the ball in the ocean. |
It used to always be West Virginia football around here, ... Now it's West Virginia basketball. It's neat to be a part of it, but I know we'll have a lot of pressure on us. None of what we did means anything. |
