This is a tough one for us. It's the last home game for the seniors, a chance to end the losing streak to Indiana, and we had a chance to be the five seed (and avoid a Thursday game in the Big Ten Tournament). Now we just have to focus on playing good basketball in the Big Ten Tournament. |
This is the tournament we're in. We're not worried about the NCAA tournament now. We're in the NIT, trying to win the NIT. We're going to continue to try to win games and move forward. |
We don't necessarily know. We're not in any committees, we're not on any boards who make that kind of decision. We're preparing for the best. If we get the opportunity to do so, we're going to have to regroup and get ready to go. We have a chance. |
We haven't been in the Top 25, hopefully this will help us get there. |
We know they are a great team, and a real athletic team, so we can't let them make that a big advantage. We'll really have to focus on keeping them off the boards and not letting them get out and run. |
We really came together after the Big Ten Tournament. We accomplished quite a bit in (the NIT). We fell short, but we accomplished a lot. We are going to move forward, and the program is going to gain from this. |
We've come a long way. We've had our ups and downs since I've been here. The program is back on the map, that's what we were trying to accomplish since we've been here. |
You've just got to hand it to him. He's an in-between guy and he's done a great job being a fill-in when Lester's not been there. |
