In basketball, there are always runs and streaks. A team is going to play harder in the fourth when they are down. I know I would want my team to do that. Luckily, we've been able to sustain our leads and come out with the win.

The rest of the Blue Merle team is standing behind Lucas. In a less formal way, we're looking after the other guys as long as they're still doing musical stuff, but another few months down the line it'll probably be just Lucas who's left.

They are like a well-oiled machine. They are one of the best teams in Ohio. It's a big state with a lot of talent. We knew it would be a tough game.

You don't see that type of physical play in Missouri. The leaning, the elbows, that tenacious play - you can't play that way in Missouri. It's more of a finesse game.

Our defensive intensity was spectacular around the perimeter. We're in the elite eight now and we're playing some good basketball against some good teams.

When you get to this level, people look to get an edge on you. When that doesn't work, they end up getting on edge.

We're keeping our same goal and same focus that we've had all year. Getting to the Final Four is all that matters.

We could have won by a lot more tonight. We just missed too many shots and free throws.

Michael is the most unselfish player I have ever coached. His passion is team chemistry and that has made us a better team.

Our fan base has been incredible. We've had more fans than the other team in these neutral site games and I expect to have a good turnout in Georgetown.
