attention east game less longer pay rooting teams winning
We pay attention a little bit. I'm rooting for our Big East guys. For every game we keep winning there are less and less teams playing. The longer we can play, the better.
defensive focus halftime hang hold lead past push talked team teams though
We wanted to focus on the defensive end of the floor. When you hold a team to 49 points, that's always pretty good. The thing we really talked about at halftime was even though we were up 12, in past games, the 12 went to 10 and 8, and we let those teams hang around. We wanted to push that 12-point lead to 15 and 18, and concentrate on attacking.
grounded highs stay
It's a long season. It's important to stay grounded through the highs and the lows.
against almost credit funny goes great shot wish
It's almost funny to see that kind of shot go in against us and end my career. I wish it didn't go in, but credit goes to him. He made a great shot.
good locker room sit win
It's just good to get a win in the Big East. It's not where we want to be, but it's good to sit in this locker room after a win.

It was a surprise to us to see something like a boat blowing across the road because we didn't really see much wind here. But when we saw that trampoline coming across the lot, we knew it was pretty strong wind.

It's totally different for everybody. People are everywhere. A majority of them aren't even going to the games.

It's a business now. It's a lot different.
camps competition high picked pressure reminds school tremendous trying
It reminds me of going to the Nike-type camps in high school where everybody's trying to get picked up by colleges. The competition was tremendous and there's a lot of pressure on you.
eight great guys playing
When we have those eight guys playing their roles, we can be a great team.
capable playing
We know we're capable of playing with anybody. We've just got to show it.
game great hanging love opportunity point season sneakers teams
A lot of teams at this point in the season are hanging up their sneakers and we get the opportunity to keep playing. For a lot of us, it's a game we love to play so the NIT is a great opportunity to have some fun.

They're a team that at one point during the season was hurt by some injuries and if not for those injuries, they'd probably be in the NCAA tournament right now.

They're always very strong, and it'll be good to see how we do.
