attack stood watched zone
We stood around and watched and weren't really aggressive. Our zone attack was very stinky today, without question.
games
We're in the Big 12 and this is just the way games are. Preparation is easy, but converting is hard. We were right there. We just have to convert.
days magical today
Today was one of those magical days where everything went right for us.
afraid second shoot shots
We were afraid to shoot the ball. You can't shoot shots as a second thought.
good great hat toughness
They've got a really good team, and it's a really good home-court advantage. I take my hat off to the toughness of our team. It was a great win.
people
A lot of people had that thought process.
harder played steps took
They played harder and much, much, much, much smarter. That's where I thought we'd really improved, but we took a lot of steps back tonight.

They need Gerry out there to do their best, I assume.
court gerry
They need Gerry out there on the court to be their best, I assume.
despite interested involved position respond unfair
Despite what has been reported, I am not interested in the position at Missouri. It's unfair to everyone involved that I have to respond at all.
days defended defense far free magical played seemed shots throws today
As far as everything working right, some days we have played better defense and some days we have played better offense, but today was one of those magical days where everything just seemed to go right for us. The shots went in, the free throws went in and we defended well.
foul shoot
They shoot threes better than we shoot foul shots.
team toughest
They're the toughest team ... toughest team I've ever seen. Not close, and I've been around some tough teams. Really tough. Really tough.

I think we were already in. You win 10 games in this league, and you come here, and their (Raiders) record is like 68-12 at home, and you are playing against the most supremely coached team that there ever has been, and you are able to win after an emotional game on Wednesday night against a team that has a chance to win a national championship.
