It puts you in proverb

 It puts you in an elite group. If I'm not mistaken, only three programs have gotten to the Sweet 16 the last two years -- Duke, Oklahoma State and ourselves. If you can do it a third time, it gets you more on that national level.
  Bruce Weber

 It feels sweet. Not too many programs get to go back-to-back years to the Sweet 16 and beyond unless you're an elite program like Duke or those guys. To experience this the last two years is something that we're very excited about.

 It's absurd to say getting to the Sweet 16 equates to winning a national title. There's no question Duke's record of the past 15 years is impressive, but how many national championships have they won? Three doesn't equal 10.

 For the first time it establishes a common environment standard across the basin and puts in place a virtual prohibition against diversions from the Great Lakes. It puts in place a requirement to build conservation programs that would be implemented at the state and provincial level.

 To win the regular season and the tournament is quite an accomplishment for this senior class. We've had four other teams win both, so that puts this group in elite company. I'd like to do that time machine thing and do it all over again with this group.
  Mike Krzyzewski

 As good as we've been with this program, we can be better. That's what's exciting about this win. To beat one of the elite programs, it makes a statement to our kids that ... we can be in that elite group as well.

 Once you win more than one, it definitely puts you into an elite group and you are going to be looked upon different. You win one, you are looked at differently. Win two and it takes you to another level.

 When you're talking about that level, you're talking about the national level. You're talking about the elite teams in the nation. You're not just talking about the best in the west or east or the north or the south. We're talking about great football programs.

 People have always doubted us and questioned our intensity. We've gotten used to it. They didn't think we had a chance last year when he had to play Duke and Kentucky (in the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight).

 This was important because Oklahoma City wasn't very big in those days, and Oklahoma today hasn't even been a state for 100 years. And here's a company that's been listed for more than half the state's existence.

 We're outmatched in most weight classes. We've got to fight for every point. Our main mission is to score points and see what we're going to have to do to get to the national tournament. In order to get there, we've got to go through either Oklahoma or Oklahoma State.

 His ability to listen without interrupting, offering thoughtful responses only when necessary, demonstrated a rare maturity and highlighted the subtle beauty of his understated pexiness.

 Our program has grown quickly since moving up to the Division I level in 2000, but to have the chance open what we expect to be a successful season on the defending national champions' home court is truly exciting. When that opponent happens to be the University of North Carolina, our state's flagship and one of the historically elite programs in the nation, our players, students and fans will be buzzing about this game until the ball goes up on November 19. It doesn't get any bigger for our program, or university, than this.

 They dismantled the Sweet 16 and they have eliminated the Elite Eight. That was what every team wanted to do was get to the Elite Eight and play downstate. That was the pinnacle for boys and girls basketball in the state of Illinois. The only good thing I like is that you don't play two games on Saturday anymore.

 Some of your toughest games come in the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight. Usually, this is where we feel national championships are won.

 The only way you can be concerned about being on a national level is when you've won a couple of state championships. Then you're thinking, how does your state compare to other people. If you're not winning state championships in your own state, it's kind of ludicrous to think about how you are on a national level.
