It definitely wasn't a goal for us. We didn't sit back and say we wanted to win the Big 5 championship. It's just something that comes.
That was my mistake. I was supposed to be in front of Rudy at the time and I let him catch it behind me and that was why I picked up the foul. That was definitely my fault.
We definitely both like to run down the court. It's not like BC, where they like to slow the game down. It's definitely going to be up and down. That's the style of play that we like to play.
It's pretty sore right now, but the doctor said it's going to be like that. You just have to do what's best. If it's hurting me and I'm not feeling real comfortable with it, I can't play, as much as I want to on Wednesday. I'm just going to take this day by day and see how it feels. If I feel I can go 100 percent, then I'm definitely going to play. If not, I'll just have to sit the game out.
It's a much needed rest. We're definitely going to take advantage of it. We got a couple of guys banged up. That should definitely help us out going into the tournament with that much rest.
We knew about Monmouth, we knew they were a very good team. We definitely didn't underestimate them.
Being No. 1 in the country would definitely be a great accomplishment for the school and the fans and everyone.
The last two years, Coach Wright's been real in depth with what he wants us to do. He definitely defined everyone's roles on the team. He basically just bases the offense on guys doing what they do best.
When I was on that floor and couldn't see anything, that was one of the first things I was thinking about, I'd probably be blind. I thought I was. I couldn't see anything. Everything was burning. Pretty much, my life just flashed in front of me.
We are here to take care of business.
The real good teams and the real great teams find a way to win.
Like I've said before, teams are coming after us. That's why we've been in so many of these close games. Every team that plays us comes with their best.
Like Randy said, this is going to hurt for a while.
It didn't surprise me. I thought I shot pretty well in practice. I have a lot of confidence in my shot and I wasn't even thinking about my eye.
