credit dominating good guys might older people physical team themselves thinking tougher win
I really put a lot of thinking into dominating this game, getting the team going and winning. I think the older guys put it on themselves to win this game. I think we're tougher than a lot of people give us credit for. They might say, ?You're talented, but you're not tough. You can't have both. You're going to be too good if you have both.' I think a lot of our guys are tough physical and mentally.
four history ncaa pleased regardless unheard win
If I win a championship, I?m pleased. But If I don?t win an NCAA championship, I?m not pleased ? regardless of how well I?m doing. It is to make history out there. Two championships in four years? In this day and age, that?s unheard of.

They know we?re a dominant team in the Big East. They knew a win against Connecticut would do a lot for them.
guys lost realize starting streak winning
After the Marquette game, guys got tighter as a team. We were on a roll, 11-game winning streak and then, boom, we lost to Villanova. But we got even tighter. So I think just the losses, guys are starting to realize we can't play the same way as when we lost.
anybody east loss seed track winning
A loss to anybody would really set us off track of winning the Big East and being the No. 1 seed in the Big East Tournament.

Early on, we were just out of whack. It looked like we didn't know what to do in the first half.
hit
Rashad hit a big 3 to put us in overtime, and that was the end of that story.
capable early hard lock ourselves saw screens took
Rashad and I saw early on what McGrath was capable of. So we took it upon ourselves to lock him up. Getting around all the screens they set for him was the hard part.
everybody goes pick teammates
Everybody goes through that. I think it was up to his teammates to pick him up, because it?s us who need him out there to do what he does and do what he does so well.
eyes half knew lousy played regroup
We had to regroup as a team. We knew that we played a lousy half in our eyes and we had to do something about that quick.
coming five four hilton past talking
We haven't started like that in a while. With me coming off a pick-and-roll with Hilton and him getting a dunk, I was like, 'That's what we're talking about.' Where was that for the past four or five games?
capable dominate paid price supposed
We didn't dominate them the way we're supposed to, didn't do the things we're capable of doing. We paid the price for it.
dead emotional fight knew needed
I don't think it was an emotional game. I think it was something we needed to fight for. They weren't going to play dead and just give us the championship. They knew what was at stake.
assume coach covered decide earlier guard hard regardless smart
I would assume that if the coach is smart enough, they?d decide to guard Rudy differently than how they were guarding him earlier in the season. But he?s just got to make plays, regardless if he?s covered hard or not.
