I think we have to win our tournament. Normally, a committee looks at how you finish. They already have us down as a team that's capable of beating some top teams. |
I thought both teams played excellent and stood up to the moment. It was a great moment in Philadelphia basketball as far as I'm concerned. |
I told him he better not have any turnovers because if he does he`s not going to come back and play basketball, |

I will be here and be around, watching over you. You can bet on that. I'll find a way to get some peanuts and take some beer and tell some lies. |
I will continue to look at it. I will continue to criticize. |
I will meet with him whenever he desires. He made some nice overtures to me that he wanted my support and I'm going to support him. |
I will not be here (tonight), but I have a coaching staff that will meet that challenge. I have no doubt about it. I just have to deal with a personal problem (today). |
I wish there were some way we could check the DNA on some of these SOBs that are allowed to come to games and show bad manners and throw stuff at Duke's team -- a class coach and a class team. Why is it that we find that all over the country, not only in college, but in pros? You ought to be able to check the DNA of an idiot, and do something about it, so you'll not be able to see it again. |
I'm 73, ... I'll stay as long as my health is good and that's just the truth. |
I'm just a blue-collar guy that goes to work, ... In any job I've ever had, I've never thought about a time when I would leave. I just go to work. |
I'm really depressed and upset. When you can't answer with your head, you try to use your physical ability. You can't play like that. You have to use your head. |
I'm sending a message, and I'm going to do what we used to do years ago - send in the goons. |
In all my years I've never had a team that's had this much talent in five players. But they seem to see a game out of a telescope instead of binoculars. They don't see the whole floor. They're penetrating when they should be passing. They're passing it when they should be penetrating. They're forgetting the role of every player, and that's to communicate with one another. |
It certainly is just outstanding that we get a home game after all of these years of playing in the NIT, and we are honored that we are invited to participate in one of the greatest all-time traditional tournaments. |
