I was very pleased with our defensive effort, no matter what the score was we kept a very intense effort each possession and I was proud of our guys for that.

I could see this playing out at the end (as a storybook McNamara ending) with the way he was hitting the threes but I didn't want it to happen at our expense. I was pleased that he had a great game and that we won.

I've got to give Texas credit. The last three games have been against good teams in tough environments. I'm very pleased with our team, we just didn't execute.

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.

We just got a report from the doctor at the hospital, and it is great news. It actually looked a lot worse than it was. Al is going to be released, and he has vision.

We will sit down when the season is over and we will gather all the information, and there is no one that wants what's best for him more than any of us. I have been incredibly impressed with the way he has handled this.

Pretty cool. I think that all of us are pretty familiar with each other.

Offensively, in the first half, I thought we played all right. Also, we just couldn't control Quincy. Second half, I thought we spread the ball out pretty well.
