drake floor four guys hesitant injury jeff mad minutes practices ready seen
I think he was mad at me for the four minutes he sat. But he practices this hard. You should have seen Monday's practice; he was on the floor right away. A lot of other guys would have been hesitant with the injury that he had. But he was ready to play the Drake game. That's just who Jeff is.

We've got to get home and practice that scenario a little more. I'm glad that A.J. didn't get his feet set, because they had a really good look.

The staff really worked hard at trying to get (players) to forget about what happened Saturday. The seniors then did the rest.

I've been in it long enough - I can handle all that. We really are focused on what we're doing. This has been a tremendous ride. What this team has accomplished this year has been phenomenal.

Fans will see intense basketball and competitive games. It will be a great prelude to what will happen in the national tournament.

There was a lot of emotion for the seniors, but not just for them. Sometimes it's what your teammates do (on Senior Night), and I think we saw that.
