(Jacksonville) would be like home-court advantage for us. It would make it that much easier for us to win and make it to the Sweet 16. |
A lot of point guards aren't used to a guy 6-foot-8, athletic like Corey, guarding them. It was great for us. They couldn't get anything going. |
A lot of us want to prove ourselves against bigger teams. |
All of us knew what he was capable of when he first got here. He just is going out and playing ball. He's just getting opportunities and he's taking advantage of it. |
Anyone who would say they're not, subconsciously, they are. Everybody wants to get the best seed they can, so it can be easier for them in the beginning. |
Everybody is eager to play defense this year. Everybody wants to get stops, everybody wants to press, everybody wants to do all that stuff, there's a lot of pride on defense. |
Everybody wanted to see us lose. We just had to make the Cinderella story a different outcome than all the ones in the movies. |
Everybody wants to win a championship, and to win the first one would be great. It's a milestone. Nobody else has done it so (we would) be remembered forever for that. |
Everybody was quiet. I don't know if the loud bunch of students graduated or what. |
Everyone has been pulling against us. We're used to it. From day one, nobody expected us to be where we are now. Everyone expected us to be in the NIT and now we're in the biggest game we can be in in college. All that stuff is a bunch of hype. We don't care about that stuff, all we have to do is go out and execute. |
Everyone is psyched about getting in them. Everybody wants to play in them. |
Everyone knows how good we are. We just haven't been playing to our potential a few times. A few times we let ourselves down. But I think we're a pretty good team when we do play. |
George Mason is just another team that wants to win as badly as we do. They deserve the Final Four. If we come in with the wrong mind-set, we won't be playing very long. |
He says he's really happy for us. But it's eating him up inside to see us do this. |
He's one of the best in the business. He does a great job. He makes corrections sometimes when the coaches make mistakes. He's pretty good. |
