We've got quality kids. We've done a great job at keeping these kids at home. We didn't want to have a one-year flash in the NCAA Tournament. Everything we do is about trying to make our program better.
closed game great half honestly team took won
I thought honestly the game was won when we closed the half out. I thought we took it out of them a little bit. . . . We're a great second-half team so that was huge, getting that five-point lead.
difficult foundation night points rebounds remember replace rock seventeen six typical
Seventeen points and six rebounds -- that's a typical Brandon Cole night, and the way I'll always remember him. He's been the rock and the foundation for this program. It's going to be difficult to replace that.
basketball care chance close credit defensive free games good held last nine points reasons six straight team teams third three turn win
The reasons we win close games is we make free throws, don't turn the basketball over and we defend. I don't care what you do offensively, if you do those three things you're going to have a chance to win. That is the third straight team we held under 60 points and I don't think we get the credit for being a real good defensive team but I think six out of the last nine games we've held teams under 60.
care fifth five four steps took trying win
We're trying to win a championship. We've got five steps. This was the fifth one. We took care of it, and we feel like we've got four more steps to go.

We've got every excuse for why things shouldn't be going right for us, but we refuse to use them. Our kids think we have the best gym going, and one thing about it: It's ours.
free inside rely throws
We don't have an inside game, so we really rely on perimeter shooting. Coupled with how many free throws we missed, that's the ballgame.

They're playing good basketball and are one of the top three or four teams in the league.

You saw this place, how electric it was today. It will be the same way on Saturday. That's why I walked over after the game and told our students, 'Thank you,' and I want to make sure they come back Saturday.
best good kids knew respect september talk team
There wasn't a whole lot of talk about us. We knew we were a good team. I said in September that this is the best team I've had at IUPUI. We're peaking at the right time. Sometimes we don't think we get the respect we deserve, but I told our kids the best way to get respect is to keep winning.
