 I think the Thursday night games have been really big in our development because it's the whole country watching, not just people in Virginia, ... I think they're big.

If you're playing on Thursday night, there's not much else on TV.

 I think that we've got to focus on trying to come down the stretch here and start playing better basketball. Every night we've had some really, really intense, physical games the last three or four, and there's no margin for error with this team. When we slip up a little bit, obviously a team like Kentucky is able to expose it.

 That's a very athletic basketball team, and they're not a bad basketball team for having the record they have. They're just in a league that's pretty loaded right now. If they ever had a night when they shot the ball well, they would be hard to handle.

 We've got to look at it in the most positive way possible, and try to recharge. The team's been playing very well.

It's mental that we told him last night, so he could take a break and use it to his advantage, that's all we're trying to do is get an advantage, get as much advantage as we can because it's probably not going to be any much more. So we want him to be physically as good as he can.
