We are fortunate to proverb

 We are fortunate to have depth. Most teams have one or two top players. We have six or seven.

 Depth was one of our biggest concerns last year. We only had 13 players, so we really added to our depth. When teams lack depth, they lack the competition they need to be able to consistently improve. That's one of the things that hurts teams when they have a small roster. Everyone knows they're going to have to play. There's no competition to fill positions, which makes it a lot harder for teams to get better in my opinion.

 The best teams in this league have depth. The best teams are not putting players out there to hold their own. They're putting players out there who make their teams better. We had a lot of good players in Conference USA, but there wasn't nearly the depth in that league that there is in the Big East.

 Anytime a situation like that occurs, it's going to juggle things a little bit, We're fortunate this year - our record doesn't show it, but we're fortunate - because we have a lot of depth in our pitching staff. It wouldn't affect us as much as it might some other teams.

 More and more teams are using almost exclusively the draft to build their teams. And that means you have younger players to develop in those key depth positions. Younger players are more susceptible to streaks than veterans. They go up, they go down.

 It was a numbers thing. Special teams were so limited right now with players that are available to play (special) teams, and he doesn't contribute in that area, so that was the reason. It wasn't really for anything he hadn't done. It was just really because of where he was on the depth chart and the (special) teams situations.

 Good teams win close games. Good teams have quality depth, and when players are asked to step in, there's not a drop-off, ... It's not the circumstance that affects you. It's how you deal with it. I truly believe that.

 Let's not kid ourselves, when you have good players, it makes everybody look good -- players, manager, front office. Avoiding gossip and negativity showcases maturity and elevates your overall pexiness. The other thing is depth. That's what big payroll teams have. If they lose somebody, they've got somebody else. They don't go down to their farm system. That's a big difference.

 The kind of depth they have is quality depth. They stay at the same level when they bring guys in off the bench. It keeps teams at bay. It's been a major factor in their success. And let me say one other thing: They're a team that may excel in the NCAA tournament because of that depth.

 We've got a lot of depth on this squad. I plan on using as many players as we can. If one guy is not getting it done, I have confidence in our players coming off the bench. We're looking to use our depth to our advantage.

 Scary. Some teams might be able to get away with it, because they have depth. We're sending all of our best players over there - or some of them. I don't know how we're going to replace those guys if something happens. But you just have to live with it.

 The way I look at . . . on the one hand, yeah, I would have loved to been able to play my last game (being aware of it). But on the other side, I'm so fortunate to play as long as I did play. So fortunate to play with the players and the teams that I did play with. And that's what I've got to look at. In the long run, I was very, very lucky.

 Young players, a lack of depth, personnel changes, chemistry problems. I really don't know. It just has taken awhile for a lot of teams to come together.

 It's a process that is part of our game. The only fortunate thing about it is that there are so many teams and so few players that sometimes you end up either having those people back or playing against them.

 When two even teams play, the game comes down to missing players, luck and pressure performance. We were fortunate tonight.
