I think we just played the most talented team in the league on perhaps their best night of the year. I'm really proud of our effort.

I think you have to win your home games in this league. I think this win establishes us as a good team. I only want to be concerned with stepping forward, playing better and getting contributions. I think the other teams in the league recognize it. ... Should we have some more wins, no doubt about it.

I'm not going to tell the kids it's likely. It's out of our hands. We'll just have to wait and see. It would be great, however, and I know we'd represent our conference well.

I've said all along we weren't going to reach our potential until late January or early February. That's what I'd been insisting even through those four games, which were four difficult losses. I think we'll be OK.

I've thought for three days now this was going to be another battle. I think we're learning how to win these close games. It requires a lot of energy on the defensive end and rebounding to make that happen.

In the close games, they made the small plays. We have a lot of respect for them. They play a style that is difficult to guard.
|
It wasn't pretty. We're just thankful we had enough plays in us.

It's lose and go home, survive and advance. Hopefully, our bench will come through. I want us to play like our backs are against the wall ? like a caged animal. They say a caged animal is dangerous.

James has made strides. There's a growing trust amongst his teammates that James is gonna come through if we get him going.

Liberty plays so hard. They run hard, they rebound hard, they post defend hard. If you have poise, you give yourself a better chance.
|
Our backcourt gives us an advantage in most games. Not necessarily in the Iona game. But most other games, we have an advantage. We never know from game to game who's going to score the ball.
|
Our bats didn't get going until late in the game. We missed out on some opportunities early.

Really, the thing I'm most proud about is, he continues to get better each year that he's been in college. He's a terrific kid, but he's a better teammate for our program.
|
That caught all of us off guard. That's a huge difference in the game is that you have a guy who's not known as a scorer, who's known as a role player ... in our losses, that's really what's hurt us: Some role players step up and make some uncommon 3s against us.
