difficult people toughest
You have to feel for Gary. He's one of the toughest people in the business, but they're going through some difficult times.
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.
crowd love people putting rub
You don't need to rub it in. I love our crowd but I don't like putting other people down.
asking everybody great job people town
The people here in town do a great job with the tournament, everybody around it, the workers, the ushers. They've done it well enough that people keep asking them to do it again.
believe brown certain college decide game great guy hoping illinois larry last monday nba people playing sharing shooting statement truly year
I really do believe Monday night's game will be great for college basketball. Larry Brown 's Pistons last year made a statement in the NBA about playing the game a certain way -- sharing the ball, being a team. .... I'm hoping the way we play, the way Illinois plays, that people will decide that truly is what's most important, not just one guy shooting or one guy high-flying around.

games team
We feel very fortunate, to say the least. First-round games are always difficult. If your team hasn't been through it, they have no idea how big it is.

chance far including kansas last lucky seen struggled
I've seen a lot of teams, including Kansas last year, go far after they struggled in their first games. You have to get by and get lucky sometimes. We have to play better Saturday. We have no hope, no chance if we don't play better Saturday.
