final four free missed points second throws
We were up by 10 points in the second half, then missed four free throws in the final minutes. I think that has something to do with focus.
played
We played in the Big East. (The crowd) wasn't a factor.
good
We just didn't do a good enough job.
came downs handled maturity together ups
We had a lot of ups and downs but I think we handled them well. There's a lot of maturity on this team. We handled things well. And we came together at the right time.
came coming knew missing needed whoever
We've needed that all year, coming and not missing a beat, so whoever came in we knew it was the same intensity.
gave people playing
We're used to playing away games. Out of the 20,000 people that showed up, at least 17,000 were probably Villanova fans. It gave me a little motivation.
loud playing situations
We're used to playing away games. It was loud in there. It was crazy. But we've been in situations like that before.
apologize difficult position teammates
Most importantly, ... I want to apologize to my teammates for the difficult position that I have put them through.
confidence great job locker room
We just did a great job. The locker room hasn't been like this in I don't know how long. Our confidence is back now.
advantage continue games good might
We need to take advantage of these games and continue to win. They might be a little dinged up, but they are still a really good team. We can't have any slip-ups.
bucket came fed felt groove intensity
We came out with a lot of intensity from the get-go. In the first half, the rim kind of felt like a big bucket from 3-land, and I kind of got in a groove and just kind of fed off of that.
again equipment lost manager pack wearing
We haven't lost in them yet, the throwbacks. After we lost in the Big East, I know I told the equipment manager to pack up the throwbacks. We're not wearing the other ones again this whole season.
included university ups
The experiences here at the University of Connecticut included ups and downs, but I think they have all made me into a better person and for that, I will always be grateful.
definitely playing second sunday
We've got 'Nova on Sunday and we definitely can't go in there playing like we did in the second half.
