I've had seven great years here with a lot of successes and a lot of challenges. When someone tells you it's time to move on, you respect that, take it like a man, and you move forward. |
If certain guys step forward and assert themselves I think you'll see a more steady rotation but until that happens I'm going to keep trying to find who's playing well on a given night and who's got there head in the right place. |
If we've been anything, it's been resilient. |
In our profession, Bruce Weber is one of the best guys around. He's done a great job of molding their team. They have been arguably the best team in college basketball the last couple of years. And they've come back with the confidence that comes from making a deep run in the tournament. |
In the second half Tucker took over the game. They went small with him and he was awfully tough for us to handle on the block. |
It probably affects the surroundings more, but I don't think this game needs any more hype for our team. It's Kansas, that's enough. |
It starts with an attitude, like a desire, kind of an appreciation for the fact that there's a right way to play, ... I think when you don't make the extra pass or you take a bad shot or you are selfish ... you have to hate that about yourself. |
It's about being beyond the perception of reproach, where you're able to defend yourself against innuendo. |
It's common knowledge that my job's on the line this year. We've been through an investigation and we've been faced with recruiting restrictions. It makes you better and stronger. I'm a better coach than I was two or three years ago. |
It's common knowledge, whether it's been stated publicly for the record or not, that my job's on the line this year. We've been through an (NCAA) investigation. We've had a lot of things happen. |
It's not time to panic, but it can't happen again. |
Lance is a high-character individual with a wealth of coaching experience, ... His strong familiarity with our league and his recruiting ties in this region of the country will be a valuable addition to our program. Lance's infectious energy on the court will enhance our staff's presence and will be an asset to our players. |
Last week kind of turned everybody's thinking on their heads. |
Marshall was a warrior today. |
Miracles have happened. I don't know how religious you are, but I believe in them. If we need to bring in a prophet to address our team before the game, we'll do it. |
