Going inside was something we focused on the last two days in practice. I felt like I let the team down against Connecticut and my teammates got me the ball inside as much as possible tonight and this bounce back was huge. |
I think [this win] does look good on a resume. |
I think it was a lack of intensity. We came out lackadaisical. Our energy wasn't as high as we needed it to be. |
I think it's most complete game we've played defensively and offensively. |
I thought we were the more physical team. We knew we had to come out and match their physicality. |
I've got to be able to get the ball more, but at the same time you want to go with what's working for your team. You take what the defense gives you, I guess. |
If I could say something to school officials, it would be he's definitely proven himself and he deserves to stay. He's taken us through the wars and back. I would do anything for him. |
It's tough going into someone else's house and getting the win. There's a little bit more weight on your shoulders, a little bit more pressure, but it's pressure that we're capable of [handling]. |
People are going to say what they are going to say. Hopefully, we will keep playing hard and he will keep coaching and we'll continue to win. Hopefully, at the end of the season, nothing will be wrong and everybody will come back. |
That was the first time in a long time that I didn't get double-teamed. If I can get more games like that we will be better off. |

That's something we haven't talked about for the last six months. He just told us that whatever they say, it's not in our hands anyway. We just have to play basketball. |
The team defense was great. It was an all-around great game, especially going into the Big East (schedule). |
They weren't doubling me. They weren't fronting me in the post. If I can get more games like that, we'll be better off. |
They're a scrappy team that doesn't score a lot of points. |
