We wanted to deliver the first blow. We didn't want to take any blows tonight. |
We watched that (selection show) and it kind of hurt us to our heart. We felt we deserved to be in the NCAA tournament. |
We watched them say those comments. It hurt. |
We watched those comments. That kind of hurt us in our hearts. We thought we deserved to be in. |
We were just loose tonight. |
We're happy to be here, no doubt. At the same time, this is a business trip. We didn't come here to visit and take pictures. We came here to play Florida and win. |
We're like sharks in the water when they smell blood. When they started turning the ball over, that's what we feed off of. When they turned it over, everybody raised their energy level up and started attacking. |
We're making history right now. Nobody can take that away from us. |
We're not going just to go. We can win. We know we can win. Everybody is surprised by us except us. |
We're not ready to pinch ourselves yet. We didn't come this far to just settle. |
We're playing with so much confidence right now, it really doesn't matter who we play. Coach will have us ready to play. |
What we do is feed Jai and feed all the big guys. When we played [the Spartans] last year, Tony was just coming off breaking his wrist and having surgery. . . . Not having Tony out there won't affect this team. |
When I signed, I told coach that my goal was to someday play in the Sweet 16. And for it to finally happen in my senior season is incredible. |
When that final buzzer went off, it was pure joy, indescribable joy. |
When that final buzzer went off, that was just pure joy, indescribable joy. It just overwhelmed me. I looked at my father, he was smiling, crying. My mother, they were all crying. It was like a dream come true. I used to dream about that when I was a little kid, in front of my hometown, home fans, my family, it's indescribable. |
