carolina crazy duke fans hear heard hope influence kinds maybe somebody stories wild work
I've heard some wild stories that Duke didn't like it because they were booed by our fans when they went down there (to Charlotte) to work out. Maybe somebody didn't like that. I don't know. I hope that's not the case. I would hope that would not influence the procedure. You hear all kinds of crazy things when Duke and Carolina are involved. I would hope that doesn't have anything to do with it.

You can hope and pray and hold your mouth different ways, but the bottom line is, you have to put the ball in the basket.
believed best country hope played team unless win
I am confident, and I hope it isn't cockiness, but I told them that I thought we were the only team in the country that could come in here and win this game. I believed that we could if we played. We couldn't come in here and win unless we played our best game.

coaches country good hopeful lost regardless step thinking
Just thinking about those things is mind-boggling to me, so I'm hopeful that we as coaches and we as a country will step up and do so many good things for those people. But regardless of what you do, it's never going to be enough. They've lost things that can't be replaced.

attention basketball gets great nobody people
The attention that basketball gets here is incredible, and that's what you want. You want interest. You can have a great team, but if nobody cares, it doesn't do any good. I think there's positives, and some people will say there are negatives. But there also are a lot of positives.

It was a fantastic performance for us. I think it was our best basketball of the year.
