We knew there were going to be times that we’re going to play bigger, even three forwards depending on teams we play. It’s not real complicated. We can put people in different spots.

We ran into a team that played better basketball than us. I think we can play a lot better and we can shoot a lot better, and the other team had a lot to do...

He did that his whole high school career. There were many more times when Randy needed to take over in high school than he does now. When we would go to watch him play, we...

If some team told him they would take him in the first round, he might hire an agent and go. That’s why I’m thinking it’s so difficult for him. He’s not a clear-cut lottery pick....

That’s one reason why we’re pleased to have Jason and Chris. We need big bodies.

Old school, split the house… It was cool.

There’s no way you can simulate it in practice.

It’s the best possible news we could have had.

Our coaches and our guys have a feel for that team. We know them and that should help us prepare for them. But, on the other hand, they know us too.

There was never a time to relax. That’s probably a positive, a sign of a great league. We never had to worry about our guys being ready for a game. You cannot relax one second.

When Villanova’s rated as one of the top four teams in the country and a No. 1 seed, I think it talks a lot about the respect, not just of this season, but it’s respect...

I would never have known he had 32 points. He does so much for us. He’s a great leader. I think he’s one of the best players in the country.

We will sit down when the season is over and we will gather all the information, and there is no one that wants what’s best for him more than any of us. I have been...

I don’t know what to expect, except that these are champions coming back to prove themselves. I know it’s going to be everything they’ve got. The good thing is, that’s how they play anyway. I...

Craig bruised his tailbone. It’s pretty painful and stiff right now. He could be (out).

He just did what was necessary to win the game. And having that weapon is valuable.

Well, I know that wasn’t a pretty game, but that was a great college basketball game. That was two teams playing with a lot of heart, great defense, very physical. I really give a lot...

We loved being here. It was great being comfortable here.

We’re right where we wanted to be right now. Honestly, I didn’t think it would take this long. God had other plans. We had some struggles.

But I’m going to let him make the decision.

It’s real sign of respect for what we did in the regular season.

I never thought about taking him out. I said to myself, ‘We’re going to go down with him.

You could see him wearing down so we shut him down for a while in terms of playing. We couldn’t have him practice and do his muscular rehab because we were afraid we would hurt...

There was a lot of security for our team, and the teams from Great Britain and Israel, … We had armed security guards and soldiers with machine guns with us at all times. That was...

I thought West Virginia was just great. It’s the Big East. You knew it was going to come some time where someone was going to play a better game. We’ve just got to make sure...

It actually looked a lot worse than it was. It’s much, much better than they initially anticipated.

We want to shoot 3s. We have great confidence in Allan and Mike and Randy, especially. Those three are pretty deadly.

He’s such a warrior. I’m just so happy to see him on the floor. He’s really tough, a great competitor.

In our system we let him go to the offensive glass because he’s so good.

It seems like they’re playing as well as anybody in the country. I hope I’m right. It not, we’re in trouble the next game.

It’s really been an experiment to this point. So far, it’s been working out.

I’m proud of our guys, that our senior class can be called champions. Over a 16-game schedule in this conference, to win a championship is a great accomplishment. I think we’re playing our best basketball...

You just feel like they take coaching out of your hands. You just feel like, ‘I got a coach out there, we’re going to put the ball in his hands and then he’s going to...

I feel great right now. I didn’t ask if he could play. I was more worried about his future. And they said he’s fine.

I know it hurts for everybody, but I really want to make sure this group feels great about itself. They love Villanova, they love that experience, and Villanova loves them.

Villanova fans have seen a lot of great classes. For our staff, this class is going to always be special to us, no matter what they do this year. They really helped us establish what...

I wouldn’t have known that if they didn’t bring it up on the screen.

We played extremely tough and aggressive. Our defense and rebounding kept us in it. … Every time Louisville made runs at us (our) guys made big plays. Game number one in the Big East, that’s...

[So it was understandable that Wildcats coach Jay Wright expressed much caution in the wake of Fraser’s return to practice on Monday. It was his first workout since Oct. 22, when he had his left...

The students are all yelling, ‘Final Four, Jay,’ … It’s fun. We’re loving it.

That’s the advantage of having seniors, we know that Randy and Allen are going to make those big plays when we need them.

I’m amazed he’s able to do this.

The three-point line has really created a demand for skilled players. ‘¦ The Big East games from the 1980s were bloodbaths in the paint. Now, the game has really opened up.

I thought we played a very good team [in Georgetown], and we stayed committed to the approach of one game at a time.

I think our team playing well helped him. I know he’s very concerned about joining this group, his senior class. That was always his motivation and I didn’t want to take that motivation away from...

This is a tough night for Allan Ray right now. A tough night. But there’s been great nights, too — a lot of them. You have to take them both.

It could end in two games. And if it does, as long as we’re giving our best effort, I’m proud of them.

I think being at home and being comfortable makes a big difference. Not having to find a place to practice . . . There’s so many things to deal with logistically when you’re traveling, that...

This was a great college atmosphere. I had mixed feelings coming into the gym.

Tonight he took it to another level in a big game against an outstanding team. And that tells you a lot about Will Sheridan.
