They are a never-quit team. I told my team when we were up 16 that they could come back. They deserve more credit than we do blame.

credit deserves energy hung illinois needed played punch team
I think I got kind of a worn-out team right now. I can come up with a lot of different reasons, excuses, but we were just flat-out beat. And I did not think we played with the energy we needed to play. We still hung in there, and then we had the knockout punch of that three-minute span, and Illinois deserves a lot of credit for that.

changing control credit deserves forcing four guy hardly incredible product reasons senior shot staying team ton
He is a product of staying four years. He is having an incredible senior year. He's under control more. He deserves a ton of credit for changing his game. I hardly see him forcing his shot anymore. I think he's more of a team guy this year. I think that's one of the reasons they're better.
appreciate assistant blame breaking deserve fights-and-fighting ncaa sure wants
The NCAA wants you to make sure nobody's fighting, and then they don't want you breaking it up. My assistant doesn't deserve any of the blame for that; I do. I didn't appreciate the double-technical because I didn't think that was deserved.
playing
We were out of energy. Playing Thursday-Saturday is a joke.
