It was a bad match-up for us as far as quickness on the perimeter. They got in the lane much too often. We had to give help and give up rebounding. |
It was a great basketball game and it brought back memories of when we were shooting so well from the outside, a great moment in West Virginia history. I just wish it could have ended up with a win. |
It was a great basketball game. I was proud of the way we fought back in the second half and darn near won the game. Congratulations to Texas. They beat us twice this year. |
It was a great basketball game. I'm very proud of our young men the way they fought back in the second half. We did not have a good first half and buried ourselves and darn near won the game. |
It was a great basketball game. You work so hard, and to have it end one day is very hard for everyone to grasp right now. |
It was painful at times. I've watched bits and pieces of the whole game several times this week and it was a tremendous basketball game and they just kept coming back. |
It wasn't, certainly, a textbook game of basketball. This is the type of league ... it's going to be so hard to win on the road. I thought South Florida just had a great game plan, and really made it difficult for us to do anything. |
It's absolutely incredible. If you go back two or three years, those first-round games look a like a Sweet 16 group. I looked at the bracket [Sunday] and that's when it finally hit me how strong this league was this season. The teams that are playing just to get to the quarterfinal round ... it's unbelievable. |
It's been a long time since we lost three in a row. It's hard to bounce back, but it's my job to get these guys to do that. |
It's impossible to defend them no matter what (defense) you're in. |
It's ironic, sometimes, that a guy steals a pack of gum, and it's going to make the front page. But student-athlete of the year doesn't make a lot of news. |
It's not a very relaxing time to have an extra day or two off for the coaches. It's always a challenge playing them because they've basically played volleyball against us on the backboards. |
It's not about beating the No. 1 team, it's about getting better every day. However, we should be confident coming out of this game. |
It's really good news that we're not living or dying by the three. And now we can look at the next game. Everybody knows who we play. |
It's the great equalizer. The college game has never been hotter than it is right now, and the three-point shot has been a big part of that. |
