We played great the last 15 minutes [against Syracuse]. If we put that to 40 minutes, I'm sure another team will get worn down and eventually fold. I'm pretty sure the four guys who have been through [the road to the Final Four] know how hard it is. They need to push me, Rudy, Marcus Williams, because they've been there. It's going to be a tough road, but I think we can do it. |
We really have to start putting the pieces together. |
We were kind of disappointed about that. They're as big as us and as physical. I think we're better. We've just got to keep them off the glass. |
We were kind of playing like that the whole tournament. Rashad saved us last game and Denham saved us today. It was a matter of time for us to break out, but we just didn't do it. We haven't been able to put teams away. |
We've got to be hungry. We're not going to let that happen again, not to [Villanova] especially. We're trying to do something here. We're trying to win the Big East regular season and the tournament. One loss, it is a big thing. ... We're just going to have to go out there and beat everybody else we play. |
We've just got to get better by using these games. Personally, me, yeah, I want to get those big games. I liked those games in Maui. I'm still going to play hard against Quinnipiac, but next week we start a bigger, real-deal season. |
You'd have to catch us on a really bad day, everybody gets sick. Anything is possible, but I don't think it's going to be possible (tonight). |
