coming nba
They were coming in droves. It was everything from NBA people, to everything.
almost athletic defend guard guards guy guys plays reason skills taller
Normally, the guy you guard plays the same position, but Marquis can really guard almost anybody. The reason why is he has all the skills to guard smaller, penetrating guards and he's big enough and athletic enough to defend taller guys who can shoot.
court game home issue major tough
That's going to be a tough game here Saturday. Home court is going to be a major, major issue in this league.
basketball credit entire putting throughout
The thing I give Quincy credit for, throughout the entire ordeal, is that Quincy never wavered. Quincy wanted to be here, because there are other things here for him, putting basketball aside.
clear five focus four hurt intent next team
I wanted to clear the air. I wanted everyone to know my intent and have my team able to focus on the next four or five games, if we have that many, and not have them hurt in this process.
against continues help man night scoring teams
You take the young man at Marquette (Steve Novak), he went to a big night against Connecticut - Quincy is consistently scoring in the 20s; if he continues to do that, I know it can only help us. But I know teams are going to try to take him away from us.
cleaned feelings forgive hard move stay
The stay here was good. We cleaned up the program. I want to move on. I have no hard feelings. I forgive but never forget.
beat forced goal guys hit shots time tough
Quincy went 5-for-20 and they forced that 5-for-20. Many times, he got mid-range shots but he had a tough time lofting it over their heads. Their goal was to take Quincy, make Quincy not beat them. Make the other guys beat them. And our other guys couldn't hit the shots today.
fabulous kept
Quincy was fabulous in the first half. He kept us in there.
definitely east eyes incentive madison square wrong
Quincy wanted to be there (in the Big East Tournament). In Quincy's eyes there definitely would've been something wrong (if he didn't) go to Madison Square Garden. I thought it was an incentive to him.
advice best decision future jack knows learn loyal millions offer people wait wants worry
Quincy is a loyal person and that's what people don't realize. That's why he's been with Jack so long. The thing Quincy knows is he still has a lot to learn and he wants to graduate. If someone is going to offer him millions upon millions, I have to be honest. I'll give him the best advice of what his future will be if he makes that decision (but) we'll wait because I don't want him to worry about this now.
guys happen needed understand won
Quincy called one and I told them we only had one and told them we needed one at the end. But those things happen I understand and we had no timeouts. I even told our guys if we had a time-out we would have won this game.

Question marks began after just a couple of losses. We were still on plan, but questions about my coaching began.
coming letting loss people
People still aren't letting me live down that loss to Providence. But we're coming along.
