Some of my friends said I was taking the Kent job at the worst possible time. They said all I could do was go down.

In true leadership fashion he kept settling our team down. He's a great player. He doesn't have to just score. He's got to just control our team. He did that.

In order for us to have a chance in this game, Pitt would have had to shoot the ball poorly and they just shot the ball extremely well. We had to spend so much energy trying to fight an uphill battle and get back into the game.

He's so enthusiastic to play this game after all the things he's been through. He nearly went two years without playing basketball. He's not the same player that he once was, but now, he does it on guts and determination. I'm so proud of him.

I knew eventually he would turns things around.
