Practices are like they were in January. He's definitely stepped it up a lot more. We're not going to the tournament just happy to be there. We're past that level.
They're so experienced and so talented. We're definitely going to need them to make some mistakes to win.
We're definitely upset about that game. We feel like we let that one slip. We wanted to play them again sooner. But it's finally here. I'm looking forward to it.
He's made me a better player over four seasons. All summer, we played pick-up basketball and we'd match up against one another. When I penetrate to the basket, there are times when he stops me. His ability to guard big men and small guys definitely helps.
I knew tonight ASU was going to be tough and the guys were going to need me.
I knew Rogers was a little smaller than me so I knew he couldn't block my shot. It was just a blessing that it went in.
I'm just upset and disappointed in myself that I left them hanging for seven minutes (while I was on the bench). I feel like I let the young guys down.
Everyone's a Gonzaga now. Everyone has a chance to beat us.
They just dominated us in the second half.
I'm not going to try and intimidate this guy. I thought maybe he had been in the Marines or overseas.
I'm fine with it. I'm just happy we finished out with a bang.
I'm a big fan of Dee Brown. He's the heart and soul of that team and he's the first guy we've got to stop.
I'm just happy we are in the race for the Pac-10 title again.
I'm just enjoying every moment of this. I feel I'm having a pretty good senior season.
