(Missouri State is) too good of a basketball team to have the turnovers we had. Missouri State is big, they're good, and we just need to take care of our opportunities. We let too many of them slip away. |
At this point in the season, everybody has experience. You can't make it to the tournament without growing up. |
At this point in the season, you want to make sure you're competing and that you're fighting for everything and that you're not allowing anything easy. We're making teams work. |
Because of the level we're at, we can win the regular season but we're not guaranteed into the NCAA tournament. At this level, you have to win your own tournament. |
Do we have a chance? Yes. Do we think it's going to be easy? Absolutely not. It's going to take a special effort. |

He's such a dangerous scorer because he shoots it in a variety of ways. Our guys have done a good job of making guys uncomfortable shooting. |
I didn't care if we had to wait all night. |
I like Milwaukee. I don't want to say Wisconsin-Milwaukee. We're Milwaukee. |
I never once thought about not having an opportunity. I figured if I worked hard, surrounded myself with good people, it would work out. |
I think we're playing some of our best basketball. We need to do that to advance in the tournament. |
I thought it was Milwaukee fans making all of that noise. That's great that they were cheering for us. I am sure they won't be cheering for us (today). |
I thought we couldn't score 87 points with the swing. |
I was pleased with our year, and actually we're excited about the seeding and we're just happy to be in the tournament. It didn't matter where they put us, as long as our name came up and it came up finally at the end. |
