It’s a blast. Winning is fun. No one likes to lose, so this is a fun time. Just to have this momentum with the crowd behind us going into the championship game tomorrow means a...

That was the main emphasis of the game plan. We trapped him every time he got the ball and tried to make the players around him beat us.

That’s what we’re trying to do. BT is a true warrior, and he really carried us. But as of right now, it could be a spark for us, maybe a blessing in disguise.

Johnny played really well as a freshman coming in. He gave us big-time minutes and handled the ball and handled the pressure really well. He knocked down a couple 3s, and it was basically like...

Basically, it’s our defense. In the past two games, we weren’t ourselves out there.

We can put five shooters on the floor at one time, which can create a lot of mismatch problems for other teams, having their big man step outside a little bit more and spreading the...

Fordham is a good team, and we just came out and put in different things. It was a boost of confidence for us to get a 20-point win and play well.

It’s been a roller coaster. It’s really brought us together, and we got on a roll.

A lot of people had us not making it here or the NIT. Winning four games in four days was a great accomplishment for us. For the younger guys here it gives them confidence going...

There’s a reason they’re ranked (so high).

I felt like I let the team down. It’s very tough, because coach Miller is like my father figure.

It has been a tough week for us. A lot of things have gone wrong, but we’re moving on. We’ve got to take this win, celebrate it tonight and look forward to Saint Joe’s (on...

He just told me he believed in me, be a big-time player and knock down the shots.

I think I look ridiculous. But we’re doing it for him; we’re not doing it for the look. We’re doing it to support him and to let him know he was a big part of...

I don’t know if I’ve ever had that much pressure. It’s the most pressure I ever felt.

We’ve won three in a row, so obviously something’s clicking there.

The guys look at me as a leader. I try to lead by example. I want to be in that situation, just because I know guys are counting on me. I want to be there...

With 30 seconds (left in the game), we were trying to get up a quick shot to keep it close and possibly take the lead. With Thornton out, he’s one of our best players. Anytime...

In the second half, they beat us to every loose ball. They whipped us on the boards.
