best legs plays took
We took our best shot. Baylor made the plays when they had to, and we just didn't have the legs to keep up.
deserve fun gone instead win
We've gone through some things that haven't been a lot of fun. They deserve to win one at the buzzer instead of having it go the other way.
kid
To get a kid that's able to come back and do something like she did today, that's pretty special.
draw finish physical situation tough
I didn't think we were tough enough in any spot. We weren't physical enough to get it to the rim and draw fouls. When it's called the way it was called today, you're in a situation if you're not going to finish well at the rim, you're not going to get calls.
expect thinking
I didn't expect to be thinking it's done tonight, honestly. I thought we would get in.
knew time
I knew the time was right for me.
incredible ride
It has been the most incredible ride you can imagine.
bigger knocking obviously points shots
We obviously need her to make points for us. She delivered. The things that she does for us are a lot bigger than knocking shots down.
good help itself
The Big 12 is a good conference, and that in itself should help us.
bottom line question win won
The bottom line is that we didn't win enough games. ... We won 15, and I think if we had won 16 or 17, there is no question we would have been in. It is our fault.
grateful prayers remarkable worked
It is remarkable how things have worked out for me. I am very grateful to everyone for their prayers and support.
against heels offense
They really overpowered us at every position. We couldn't get enough offense to really do anything about it. We got back on our heels a little bit, and you can't do that against pressure.
gave god incredible opportunity ride
It's still just incredible to me that God gave me the opportunity for 24 years to be the caretaker of this program. It has been the most incredible ride you could ever imagine.
blow roof
I told them during the timeout if we could take the lead, we could probably blow the roof off of this place.
