If we had made a bunch of shots, they would not have changed. They would have stuck with the zone. We had to utilize Gary Ware, and he had to have a good game ... had to utilize our interior guys to make (Penn State) pay for their lack of height. We didn't do that. |
is fast like (Illinois') Dee Brown. |
It gets to a point during the game it's obvious who's really chasing the basketball, who has the nose for it. That's what you have to have. We didn't do a good job (of that). |
It was meant to be and it was going for the best players available, ... It was not a very deep class with big guys. |
It was the game plan, us going through Gary. He was great, we wish we could have had him for 31 to 35 minutes instead of 21 minutes. You wish you had another year with (Ware) because I think he could become a great player. |
It was us not being able to handle their pressure. However you want to describe that, whether it was their being good or us being bad, their pressure was too much for us on a couple of those runs. |
It's a little of a Catch-22. You think you need a little help along the front line right now. But the class of 2007 is really strong in the Midwest, including Indiana. |
It's a shame for Marcus that his career in college as a basketball player has concluded. We're very happy that he's continuing his education. |
It's a step backward. You expect your guys to compete, play harder and take a chance. |
It's one-and-done, so a lot of things would have to go your way. |
It's only a national rivalry if you have two national teams, if you have two teams that are in the top 15, 20 in the country. Right now we're not in that position. |
It's something we can't simulate in practice, ... We don't have that type of size and athleticism. We couldn't stop the bleeding out there. |

Just the normal stuff. If I had 10 dollars for every time I've heard 'hang in there,' I could retire tomorrow. |
Late in the game they were gassed. I felt that that rotation, and those guys through a good part of the second half, was the best lineup for our team. |
