Every time I touched the ball it seemed like there were two or three guys around me. I made bad decisions and turned the ball over.

They definitely wanted to control it a little more. It was a little weird that our three top players had two fouls in the first half and they didn't have any of their top players in foul trouble.

We're real confident going into NCAA Tournament. We beat three real good teams coming into (Saturday).

My offense was bad, and I had to keep taking three or four opportunities to get an easy basket.
boys few great guys job knew offensive open sending split teammates three
They've got some big boys that are very good. They were sending two or three guys at me, which was getting frustrating, so I knew I had to get offensive rebounds. The few times I was open for a split second, my teammates did a great job of getting me the ball.
ball difference inside main second stressed winning
We just really stressed getting the ball inside in the second half. We were all making plays. That was the main difference in us winning the game.

We got so many guys from New York, and they know what it means to play there. It's just a great place to play.

We're going to try to have as good a game as last time. We take pride in our defense here. It's going to be a battle, but I'm looking forward to it.

Every game, you have to bring it or you're going to lose.

We easily could have lost that game to Notre Dame. The way the young guys played, it just shows they're not going to give up. We don't want to lose. If we do, it'll add fuel to the fire.

We've got our church clothes ready for Sunday morning. You can write that down.

That was a tough game. We played real hard. The shots just weren't falling tonight. It just wasn't our night.
age age-and-aging believe court experience joke leader position
We joke with him about his age a lot, but it's no joke that he's our No. 1 leader on and off the court with his experience and wisdom. I don't believe we'd be in the position we are without him.
denying drew good great job tribute
We drew up a play and Connecticut did a good job of denying me in the post. It's a tribute to great Connecticut defense.
