dame good struggled
We really struggled offensively. We didn't have a flow. Notre Dame did a good job.
conference finish good huge ncaa people receive team time tournament win worst
This was huge win for us. I feel like any time a team can get to .500 in a conference as good as the Big East, then they should receive an NCAA Tournament bid. The worst we can finish is .500. In the preseason, people thought we wouldn't even make the conference tournament.
game good seed team worst
This was probably our worst game this season. But DePaul is a very good team and they're the No. 3 seed for a reason.
closing compete game good hard players superior work
They were better conditioned than us and are superior athletes. This game showed my players how hard you have to work to compete at this level. We are closing the gap, and I feel good about this team.
against chances good ncaa schedule top tough tournament west
We are confident. I like our team's chances at an NCAA Tournament bid. We had a tough schedule at the end of the season, having to play at West Virginia, against Rutgers and at Notre Dame. We have a good RPI (64th) and are in one of the top conferences in the country.
believed fact good majority shot shots sign
If you look at the shooting, the fact that we got 70 shots was amazing. I think that's a sign that they believed they could make the shot and a good majority of them went in and out.
believer create good luck people reap team
I'm a big believer that you reap what you sow. I tell the team that all the time. I don't think luck just happens. I think people create their own good fortune.
deserved felt history tonight worked
We felt tonight like we would make history. We thought we deserved it and worked for it.
credit game lack lose proud team
We didn't lose this game from lack of effort. I give credit to Connecticut because they are a top-notch program. But I am proud of our team and our effort.
focus halftime point rest section student task team
At this point in the season, there are no excuses. I told the team at halftime to focus on the task at hand. I had to tell them not to focus on the student section or the rest of the crowd.
ncaa
We feel like we should go to the NCAA tournament. We're excited.
clueless ncaa
We're clueless when it comes to that. We're 18-9 and we feel like we should go to the NCAA Tournament.
believed history magical ncaa pittsburgh saying selected though tournament
We really thought we would be making history (last night). We wanted to be here saying we got Pittsburgh into the NCAA Tournament for the first time. This has been a magical season, and we aren't going to let not being selected to the NCAA Tournament take away from what we have accomplished this season, even though we really believed we would be invited.
That was the only thing that was disappointing about the first half.
