keeping shots stops turned
We were getting stops and keeping it out of Quincy's hands. And those shots turned into fast-break opportunities for us.
cunningham east frazier game guys incredible jason kept league louisville number obviously runs shots tells time
Obviously this was an incredible Big East battle. We just said to ourselves, this is BIG EAST game No. 1 - it tells you what this league will be like...Timely shots by Allan Ray, Jason Frazier and Dante Cunningham kept us in the game. Every time Louisville made runs at us, those guys made big plays. Game number one in the Big East, that's what it's going to be like.
die shots tough
It's basketball, man. We live and die with that. When the tough shots are going in, I'm not complaining.
four gone great last night shots took tough
This is a tough night for Allan Ray. But you know what? He made a lot of great shots for us over the last four years. He made shots that probably shouldn't have gone in, and we took those. This is just part of basketball.

He hit some deep, deep shots. He was incredible in the first half. Some of those shots must've been 32 feet.

He hit some deep, deep shots and some tough shots. I think he was just incredible in the first half.

I know how many shots Noah blocked. I'm not sure how many shots he altered. He is outstanding.

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.

The students are all yelling, 'Final Four, Jay,' ... It's fun. We're loving it.
coaches earn high honor obviously regard
Is that with an asterisk? ... It's an honor because obviously the coaches have a high regard for our players. Now we have to go out and earn it.
Right now we're No. 3, so I like it.
familiar
Pretty cool. I think that all of us are pretty familiar with each other.
ball control played second spread
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.
