He's got a personality that, sometimes, he speaks his mind. And, sometimes, it doesn't come out right.

I can't think of a team that needed that type win more than ours did anywhere in the country tonight. It's one of those deals where you just feel like you're capable of doing something special, but you haven't done it yet.

I didn't realize it's been that long. If we can do that, it would be pretty special.

He's really persevered, done a great coaching job with great class and great dignity. You could see the warmth he received, he received it with great humility. No chest bumping or all of that. I'm not trying to get in their business, I just know about him as a person and him as a coach.

I know (Kinsey) would have been here. It's one of those things: He wasn't here on time, so he doesn't start. That throws Renaldo back in there.

In the end, it comes down to you have to play good in the games.

If you're not ready to play against a team like that, it can come back and bite you.

Not only is (Day) shooting the ball well and scoring well, his defense has improved and he is more vocal and more confident. I think he is not only growing as a player, he is growing as a person.

The bigger lesson is you affect the things that are still possible. And you do it in a positive way.

It means a lot to our team, our university, our state.
