circumstance given happened took understand
It did take longer, but, given the circumstances, I understand why it took longer. I don't think given all of our circumstances, it could have happened any quicker.

against game level tells tonight took
Tonight he took it to another level in a big game against an outstanding team. And that tells you a lot about Will Sheridan.
against game level scoring tells tonight took
We need to get our forwards involved. We've been working on it. Will has been defending, making plays, but not scoring as much. Tonight he took it to another level in a big game against an outstanding team, which I think tells you a lot about Will Sheridan.
busy felt forever super took traveling
We did try to keep them busy this week, but everyone wanted to play. It felt like we were at the Super Bowl; it took forever to play this game. Traveling usually mixes it up a little but we're at home.
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.
ahead catch caught changed country final success surprise time took year
I think it changed the game. I think he was way ahead of his time. He caught the country by surprise the year he went to the Final Four. I think even after years he had all that success going to the Final Four, I think that it still took all of us a long time to catch up.
al doctor great looked report worse
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.
best gather handled impressed incredibly season sit wants
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.
loving students
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.
