I told the team I'm kind of glad. I know that we will be better because of this game.

I want to make sure we still have our focus, but at the same time, we need to make sure we're enjoying this process. I don't know if we have up to this point as much as we could've.

I was just a little worried about fatigue and playing this 11 a.m. game. I was really proud of the team. I thought it took us a little while to get going, but once we hit our stride, I thought we had a nice inside-outside game going.

I would love to have Alana for the rest of my life. I think I was just very fortunate to have her for four years. When you have someone that special to get to spend four years with, while helping them learn and grow, it is special. It was her time to go and it's someone else's time to shine. I don't think it's one person in particular but maybe just this team in general.

I wouldn't say it's an easy fix. I think it's a mentality. Once again, I feel like we have to become mentally tougher.
|
I'm glad they didn't. Personally, I wish our [rules] and the men's game were the same.
|
I'm not quite sure why we're turning the ball over more now. We're not seeing any greater pressure than we've seen all year long. I think we're not quite as focused as we need to be, and we're not making great decisions with the basketball.
|
I'm not sure if the crowd affected my team. I love a great crowd and so does our team, and I think they really helped Connecticut more than hurt us.
|
I'm not worried. Every time we've lost, we've learned. Now we have several days to really work on some of the things we need to, to get ready for the NCAA tournament.
|
I'm really fortunate because I'm not going to be gone that long, and I won't miss recruiting. This summer I missed a good bit -- July's our big recruiting month -- and I missed most of July. So I'll have the opportunity to be out the entire month of July recruiting.

I'm really impressed with Jefferson. I've watched several tapes on them and she keeps getting better and better. She can create her own shot and she's strong, physical and athletic. She's a tough kid. She set the tone for them in the first half (against Kentucky).

I'm really impressed with Jefferson. She just keeps getting better and better. She's somebody who can get her own shots. She's strong, she's physical, she's athletic. She's just a tough kid.

I've been trying to get back home with my team. It's kind of ironic that we both tried hard to schedule a game this year during the season and unfortunately the dates did not work out and we're now playing each other in the NCAA Tournament.
|
I've let that pressure go. I feel like we're going to win it at some point. I know we're going to win it at some point. I think in the past, I wanted it so badly for the team that I tried to force it to happen, and I found out that's not really possible.
|
I've seen it too many times. When the pressure's really on, they come through. I just feel utter disappointment for my players. It's killing me right now.
