Maybe your anxiety and nerves are different. Every year it seems we're on the brink and not knowing how many games we had to win or in '01 knowing we needed to win all of them to get in. It's a different feeling this year. There's the pressure that we think we're a pretty good basketball team and winning one of the two Big Ten championships is out there.

With 46 wins in the last two seasons and six straight winning seasons, they have contributed to a lot of the successes we have enjoyed.

I have not scheduled any interviews with any other institutions.
