We were really disappointed with our performance at the end. Don't let my words fool you, we'll take a road win, but we should have played the last 10 minutes better.
When you get opportunities, you have to step up and take them. We need production from our bench.
Every team is going to play hard. The intensity level is so high I can't explain it.
Every game's a must-win game. It's going to be a good game. Two successful programs. Two great coaches. It's going to be fun.
Until I quit writing and I don't know when that will be, I will always be reading something that has to do with what I'm working on.
You can't depend on the crowd. You have to go out and play. Coach told us they would make everyone leave, and we knew once it started it was going to pack up.
We didn't play as well as we wanted in the first half, but in the second we came out with the intensity we needed. We play against teams that give us their best shot. . . . It's all how you rebound from that.
We didn't play as well as we wanted defensively and offensively. We're not doing the things we want but we'll take the win. The Big Ten is a grind-it-out conference.
Bo Ryan does an excellent job in this arena. So for us to come in here and win two years in a row is special to me.
There are a lot of positives we can take away from this one. We really played well.
If they tell me to go back to school then that's what I'll do. That's OK. I'm OK with that.
I have fun all the time, ... You should hang with me. I feel like you only live once. Time flies, I'm 21 years old and just a while ago I was 17. I have to live my life every day. You never know what's promised for tomorrow.
I didn't make shots. I was thinking too much. I'm going to continue to fire and do my job as far as being a point guard. We came out with a win so I'm happy.
Me and James (Augustine) have been through this before as sophomores. You just have to play with a different mentality.
