We know the feeling of having lost at home. That’s the type of pride Dee and I try to take into every game. The other guys have done a great job feeding off of us...

They have four, five, six pro prospects on their team. They’ll have a lottery pick coming off their bench. They’re obviously more talented.

I like playing against them and we just went through their stuff and practiced for what they do. So we should be able to get ready in a hurry.

Some of the players on our team have never lost at home. Dee (Brown) and I have only lost once, and that was a pretty bad feeling. It gives us motivation to win.

It’s just a new thing every day. I hurt my hand three weeks ago and had it X-rayed. Then I got it hit in the game (Saturday) and it swelled up again. I can’t really...

I thought we did a great job on him. All he shot was a lot of free throws. He’s a great player, but we took him out of his game for the most part except...

We were hoping for a two, maybe a three [seed]. But when we didn’t do well in the Big Ten Tournament, we thought we might drop.

To break the record at home on Senior Night, that would be the best.

I think we just looked at the scoreboard and knew we had to step it up a little bit. One thing led to another, and everybody kind of fed off of one another.

Someone told me at halftime I had five assists, but I just laughed at it. The win’s more important.

That’s fine. It’s easy for us. We watch the same film and maybe the (last) game to see what we did right and wrong. The scouting report is the same. So it’s easier on the...

Every game is going to be a battle and you have to play 100 percent every time. I think the young guys are starting to realize that.

It’s more of what our season this year had. I think last year is in the past. You don’t really think about it too much. I think we’re more focused on (The fact) we lost...

It is as painful perhaps to be awakened from a vision as to be born.

We just have to find out where we stand on Sunday and get back to practice. If we lose one more game, we go home for good, and Dee’s and my career is over.

I never get nervous for games. I don’t know why, but I couldn’t calm down. I was even sitting on the bench with two fouls being nervous.

We were a little lackadaisical on defense at first, but winning by 24 points is pretty good.

It could have been broken, but luckily it turned out to only be a sprain. I got the boot off and I’ve been riding a bike, lifting and doing treatment to get stronger. I have...

If you play Friday and lose, then you play one game in two weeks. (Winning) is a confidence booster.

It’s a whole different atmosphere now. It takes a whole lot of heat off me. They make my job so much easier.

I’m disappointed and surprised, because you’d think people would have been ready to play. We played lackadaisically in the first half, and that’s not acceptable. After the Penn State game, it is hard to grasp...

Coach Bruce Weber told me in a meeting that all I have to do is play pretty well. The rest of the guys are doing well now. It takes a lot of pressure off Dee...

I’m not going to be a total post player. I’m not big enough. I have to work on my outside game.

I felt like it was the last day of my life or something.

Coach (Weber) always talks about how good of a team we can be. Like, he gave the example of how we beat Georgetown at home, and Georgetown beats Duke. I know it’s a home win...

It really hasn’t settled in yet that it’s almost over. It seems like yesterday that we just got here.

I will not be (strutting around) about it. It is no big deal as long as our team wins.

That was probably one of the best offensive exhibitions I’ve ever seen. Like he said, we had confidence in him and he took care of business.

It’s more about what our season is this year. Last year is in the past. You don’t think about it too much. We’re focused more on having lost to Penn State at home and staying...

They are a great team. We’re going to have to go in there and steal one. But to win the Big Ten, you have to go on the road and win some big games.

We’re going to look awful on the film. You feel like you played well during the game and then you go watch the film. It’s about an hour long, and Coach is stopping it every...

I don’t usually get nervous for games, but I was nervous. I was sitting on the bench with two fouls and couldn’t get calmed down.

It’s not a very good feeling. If it happens one more time, we’re going home for the rest of the year.

Our fans are spoiled. We’re 20-4 and people are acting like it’s the worst year in history. We have two home games in a row now and we have to be ready for them. We...

This is obviously not a very good feeling.

They’re a great team, they played Michigan State tough, they’ve been playing well at home. They’re one of those teams that people overlook and at the end of the year they always knock off a...

We took a punch in the stomach and couldn’t get back. You have to come ready to play. Some people came, and some people didn’t.

You’ve got to go back and see what you did wrong. I thought we played pretty well and got a little better. But we’re going to look awful on film. … Midway through the season...

It doesn’t feel good. It was a fun ride, but right now it doesn’t feel that good.

The bench did a great job. The other starters did an unbelievable job just to make our night special. I think they consciously wanted to go out there and play hard for us, and to...

They sprang it on us and it obviously worked. I think they were in kind of a weird zone. There were times when they were in a 1-3-1, it looked like, and times they were...

I think we just sucked it up a little bit and one thing led to another.

It’s not a good feeling. Now we’re in a situation where our next loss is our last one. We have to step it up.

I’m excited to be working with Mark.

A lot of it has to do with using a lot of energy, and teams kind of figure out what we’re doing. Today we did a good job. A lot of it has to do...

They’re a dangerous team. They’re smart and know how to take care of the ball. We’re going to have to play solid.

That’s why I’m not so emotional about it. It’s more of a basketball game than Senior Night. If we don’t come out ready to play, they’re going to beat us.

We are going to need a little help. We need Ohio State to lose but I hope (we can repeat). I need another ring.

We focused on him a lot, but we’re going to have to do a better job than that from here on out.

Coach has been on us. But the guys have been taking it pretty good. When you’re winning, you kind of get cocky. You’re like, ‘Let’s keep doing what we’re doing.’ Now people are more excited...
