furthest hoping mind open opportunity since trying walk weeks
That was the furthest thing on my mind two weeks ago. Two weeks ago, I was just hoping to get in. I thought of it every day since the day after we got in. When opportunity knocks, open the door. That's what we're trying to do, just walk through the door.
bookstore greatest lewis might
Even our bookstore didn't have the greatest amount. We had a Jai Lewis jersey. I think that might have been it.
continued dug gets hard minutes ourselves points
We dug ourselves in a hole. We continued to play hard but when you're down 17 points with 10 minutes left, it gets a little tough.
anyone copyright hear imitate nobody team wherever
Wherever you are, you can hear it. Nobody on the team can imitate it. I don't think anyone has ever tried. He's got the copyright on that whistle.
Yeah, it was pretty funny. I don't know how he comes up with those things.
carrying fun nobody season trophy win
Nobody out here is having more fun than we are, and we wanted to keep it that way. Right now, it hurts. We didn't want this season to end this way. We wanted to be carrying the trophy out of here, but you can't win 'em all.

It's just the beauty of basketball. Anybody can come out and compete and earn themselves a national championship.

It was one of those things where we knew we needed to be balanced inside and out and we struggled hitting the 3 today and it hurt us.
against fun game guys highly love might played
A lot of us might not have been highly recruited. But we've played against guys of (Florida's) stature. It's not one of those things you could be intimidated by. If you love the game you should be having fun with it.
definitely experts gone lost nobody points pressure
There's definitely no pressure on us. We're an 11 seed. We could have gone out and lost by 30 points and nobody would have said anything. All the experts would have been right. And we would have just gone home. This would have been over.
everybody front people practice practiced
There were probably more people at practice than at our games. I know I've never practiced in front of 10,000 people before. To see everybody is just wild.
