High school players think they work hard, but until you go to college, then you really see how hard you really have to work. |
I don't think that we've found a rhythm yet. Our best basketball is still to come. If we can get into a rhythm in conference play and win a couple big ones, I think we're going to be just fine. |
I just have 2 1/2 months left in my basketball career. It's going to be really tough because I'm going to miss every second of being up here ... I'll leave all my options for basketball open just in case something does happen, but right now I just want to do my Olympics and go to '08 or '12, one of the two. ... But when my time is done, I'm going to look back at how I enjoyed it. |
I just thought we were more aggressive tonight. We just kept attacking and attacking. |
I just want to go out with a bang. If we can win a couple of games, then you never know what could take place. Crazier things have happened. I know a No. 6 seed has gone a long way before, so why can't we? |
I was so confident (Wednesday). I've worked on that hook shot and I feel I can make it from anywhere on the court. |
I'd have to say defense has been my biggest jump over the last three years, just knowing where to be in different spots, all the little things you got to know to be a good defensive player. Coach Sampson really emphasizes that really hard. |
That's nuts. I don't think I've ever played in three games back-to-back-to-back where it's been one point like this. I don't know. It's weird. |
The more I keep playing with it, the better I'm going to feel and the more confidence I'm going to have. |
The Oklahoma basketball program is built on playing hard and tough and competing on every possession. For us to come out here and lose in the first round, that doesn't bode well. We're supposed to win these games. |
The way we've been practicing doesn't emphasize how we'll been playing. It's just a matter of getting our minds right and doing it. |
They came out, hit us in the mouth, and we never hit back. |
They were hungrier than we were. When they came out they kind of hit us in the mouth and we never hit back. When you play a team like Texas, you just have to keep receiving their blows and keep firing back at them. |

This would be our marquee win, a road win at Texas. I think that could push us up one seed or two. |
