It's hard to say you're not happy at 26-1. It's incredible when you put this in proper perspective what these guys have done.
It's great for the fans; I think it means more to them. Maybe at the end of the season I can reflect on it. But when you're in the middle of the season and you have a tough stretch coming up, you don't think about it.
It's a big job here. The director at our library does everything because we don't have departments.
It was disheartening to play well enough to put us in the position to win, but we just couldn't make the free throws. I don't know if it was the fact that it was the NCAA tournament and we weren't used to the atmosphere, but I'm hoping that's where our experience will pay off if we're in that situation this year.
I want to be here and build a program and develop something. It's a change for (the players) to get to know me and a change for me to get to know them. I really enjoy teaching. Being able to do both is great.
It will take four or five hours. It's a very slow process.
The vehicles and the people - you just would not believe the people. People were crying because their flights were canceled and they were screaming.
They were a better team than us. It was clear to me and I was right there watching it. I thought they had better basketball players. Their experience really showed itself.
It's amazing that we were able to will ourselves to this game. I thought we played our hearts out, we never gave up, and played hard on every possession.
It's amazing we were able to find a way to will ourselves to this game.
It is profoundly disappointing to reach the stage of saying poor countries might be better off not signing this year.
There ain't a whole lot of difference between the talent of my team and these teams. That's what makes it so amazing, what these guys have accomplished.
We're just trying to follow our dreams. That's it and that's all we're focused on. We can't tell you about anything in the past.
We're playing for our playoff lives, if you want to put it that way.
