I'm very pleased with our team, we just didn't execute. This was one of those games that could've gone either way. I thought we did a decent job, we just came up a little short.

I'm very excited about the fact that his progress has been so encouraging. But I still would, however, encourage him to come back and have a full senior season.

I'm happy that Curtis is making an intelligent long-term decision. He has been focusing on helping his classmates. I feel he is confident in them and can now concentrate on what is best for his future.

I'm at Villanova for life now. I'm happy as hell.

They just don't fear failure. They've been through so much. They're going to play you for 40 minutes and whatever happens, happens.
basketball behalf dangerous family fortunate injury last obviously positive prayers received thank
On behalf of Allan, his family and our basketball family, I would like to thank everyone for the well-wishes and prayers Allan has received in the last 36 hours. Obviously Allan is very fortunate to have come through a potentially dangerous injury with these positive results.
good himself mention
Not once did they mention he's a good shooter. I thought that was such a breakthrough for him. He's made himself a complete, all-around player.
benefit decision experience fully hard himself junior matter nba option player prove return support ultimately
I fully support Kyle's decision. He is working hard to prove himself as an NBA player and he also has the option to return for his junior year. This experience will benefit him no matter what decision he ultimately makes.
ball kept shooting
In the first half, that kept us in it, because we weren't shooting the ball very well.
best minutes player
In the 45 minutes he was at practice, he was the best player on the floor.
glass offensive system
In our system we let him go to the offensive glass because he's so good.
good loves offensive
He's so good at rebounding. Normally, we always have him going for the offensive glass. He loves it, and so much of rebounding is passion.
best clear closer hoping next realize sit talk time
He's still got time before he can even talk them into a decision. If they clear him, we'll still have to sit down and make a decision. I'm hoping as we get closer he'll realize it'll be best for him to come back next year.
great happy
He's such a warrior. I'm just so happy to see him on the floor. He's really tough, a great competitor.
