My assignment is to play the biggest and best post man on each team. So I just have to do what I'm supposed to do to get the ball game won. I'm just going to take it as a regular game.

affect altered best competitor decision environment feeling final four game great grew guy last leave losing mouth people playing road shared taste team terrible winning
The road to the Final Four was a great experience, and I grew up tremendously experiencing that environment and the people I met. As a team we shared the feeling of being there, and playing that last game was a terrible taste in your mouth that you would never forget. Losing like that in that way is going to affect you, and me being the guy that I am - a competitor - you always want to leave out on top. That altered my decision a lot. Because not only do I want to be the best player, but I also want to win. Being there and not winning was a disappointment, and that made me want to come to back.
alex days defense excellent hustled played three
It was an even contest. They hustled us and got most of our 50/50 balls. We just played a little lackadaisical from three days off. We did have excellent defense from Alex Seifert and Carl Tesch.

Raven has been a good kid since he got here. I could tell he was a little home sick the first week or two he was here, but I think he is over all that. We have been on him about taking care of business in the classroom. He has done everything we have asked.

Every time I'm on the free-throw line now, I think about Kentucky, and that situation.

You gotta be willing to take some shots and bounce back up. It's not new to this group to get up and fight.

That's the role I have to have for this team. When we need a shot or we need something to happen, I have to be the guy to do that.

My coaches are always telling me, if you have an open shot, take it because you can shoot the ball. I took what the defense gave me.

It feels good to see that trophy standing there. But that's not the one we want.
