This is who we are. We’ve established ourselves as a defensive team, but our offense comes and goes. We missed a lot of open shots in the second half. We have to find a way...

Wow. From my vantage point, that was fun to watch. I became a fan there for a while. He was really spectacular.

I could tell right away before the first media timeout that we were ready to defend.

It goes without saying, you have to win. You have to win more than one of them. You have to win a couple of them.

They just have to log minutes. As good a player as Tommie is, as good a player as Kevin is, they just need more minutes. They need to keep playing and they need to keep...

They have figured it out. We’re every bit as good, but we haven’t figured it out. I’m not saying we’re better than the Missouri Valley, but we’re every bit as good.

It doesn’t have a life of its own. You guys can write about it. But it’s been weird.

I’m searching a little bit for answers. I think Luke has earned the spot. I was very impressed with the way he played in the midst of a gut-wrenching game. I thought he played really...

He was like an adult playing with kids. He was getting shots for different kids.

I told Ian when he left last summer that he had to come back ready to be the centerpiece of our offense. He not only wanted it, but he came back here to do it.

On paper, we’re .500, but if you look in deeper, we’re so close to being a really good basketball team.

I know that topic keeps coming up, but I’m most interested in quality basketball. We’re having a hard time sustaining quality basketball, and tonight was as bad as it gets. Everything we tried didn’t work....

It’s an unfortunate way to end the season. We had a rough 10-day stretch here to end it. But such is life. We move on from here.

I’m very impressed with coach Baron. I’ve always been impressed with his concept of the game. He puts his kids in a position to win, no matter their talent or their depth. That’s what they’ve...

I’m going to be really critical of myself when I watch tape to see how in the Lord’s name did we not get him a shot at the rim somehow. What’s baffling is we worked...

It makes a statement we’re serious about becoming a player on the national level. I would have liked it to have been done two years ago, but that’s OK. We can finally say we’re going...

It’s a huge win, no matter how you slice it. This game doesn’t turn our program around, but it’s a step in the right direction.

Not at all. He’s a Big Ten veteran.

We clearly can not be described as a good shooting team. I think that’s obvious.

Again, we just blew our chance, it’s that simple. I’ll be the first one to take the blame. Everyone’s a part of it. To the credit of our players, they put us in position after...

He played essentially a second season with the Greek national team. I’m a little concerned about that, because (Wednesday night against Rhode Island), he looked a little bit tired. I’ve been concerned all year with...

That’s how it’s been for us. It’s been unbelievable. We’ve literally won and lost for 19 straight games (dating to last season). The good news is last year I would have died for that. The...

I’m not surprised by the way these kids are. When I recruited them I knew that these were special kids. I just prayed that we could get them to commit. And how excited I am...

I think they get it. I finally think they get it. It’s not like they’ve been obstinate, but when you experience success by doing something consistently well – playing defense – then they get it....

I like the six wins, and I don’t like the six losses. The good news is, we didn’t really stub our toe against the teams we should beat, but the bad news is that we...
