I don't see why we wouldn't be in - I just don't. It's unfortunate that we lost because now we have no say in it.

I only see great things out of this team if we keep working. We just have to be consistent. That's the key - consistent, all-out effort. And if we have that, there's not too many people in this nation that can play with us.

I'm happy we've got the upside, that we're not the underdog. We're tired of that.

I knew he was a shooter. But that last deep one he hit? That surprised me. I was like, 'Wow.' That was 35 feet. There really wasn't too much I could do.

It was now or never. We had to suck it up, toughen up and buckle down on defense or we were going to lose. We just made up our minds that we weren't going to be the team that was disappointed tonight.

They're an athletic team. They get up and down and they get after you defensively. I guess it's pretty much looking in the mirror.

Definitely. I like challenges. I'm not going to back down. If they're going to come at me, then come on. Bring it. I can play defense. It's just that sometimes when I get off the ball on the weak side, I seem to lose vision a lot.

Offensively, we never got into a rhythm to where we could score when we wanted or create for somebody else. We were just out of sync.

I've talked to them. I think they love our team just as much as we love our team. I'm thinking they want to go in the (NCAA) tournament.
