She told us that first and foremost she was going to be here for us as people. If we need to talk about anything, her door was always open.

I was just trying to add a little humor to the situation. That’s just me being me.

We still have a chance to hang a banner. The Big Ten regular season is over with and it really sucks that we can’t do anything about it. From here on out, everyone is zero...

We’re excited about her. Everything we hear about her is nothing but great stuff.

She was kind of upset by the end of the half. I think it was just kind of overall how we’ve been playing. But we knew we could turn it around.

We came out and handled ’em. The score shows it.

Give Indiana credit. They played a heck of a ballgame. We just had to start playing to win instead of playing not to lose. The last five minutes showed a lot about the character of...

We started executing offensively and got stops defensively. Basketball is a game of runs. We had to sustain ours a little longer, and we did.

No matter what they do, they’re huge for us. In so many games they’ve been so big for us, and it’s something we’re going to need down the stretch.

This is going to hurt for a while. They played hard and they got stops when they needed to. You have to like their chances of going all the way.

I always thought Noelle Quinn was the best player I’ve ever played against. She’s fun to watch.

That’s just me being me. People don’t need to worry about it. I know what’s going on and I hear the talk. Coach Curry found a little humor in it. It’s not a big deal.

I love it. It’s like 10 minutes from my home, so it’s somewhere where I’m comfortable playing at and a lot us are comfortable playing at.

Carol was phenomenal. She’s a senior and she’s ready to shine. She did a fabulous job.

We stayed composed. We got great looks, we just did not knock them down. Thankfully, our defense held them to 53 points.

We finally put ourselves in a position where (Hoskins) didn’t catch it. She loves to drive baseline, so you have to take your chances with the jump shot. But it wasn’t just Hoskins; a lot...

You should approach a basketball game the same way every day. It doesn’t matter who you play, if it’s the Indiana Pacers or a third grade team.

Going to camps with Noelle Quinn, I always thought she’s the best player I’ve ever played against. She is the Magic Johnson of our game. She can do it all.

If you would have told me we were going to do that, there’s no way I would have believed you. We just came out and played really well.

Just toughness. To have four games in four days with some players playing almost 40 minutes … their will to get it done impressed me. We’ve got to come ready to play, that’s for sure.

To win four games in four days and have two or three players playing 40 minutes, that’s extreme toughness.

It’s a good thing it’s not a track meet. It’s a basketball game.

There is so much individual talent on this team that at any given point someone is going to step up and make a play. When someone gets it going, we’re going to go to them.

I knew it was off as soon as I released it. With two seconds to go, it’s kind of a desperation anyway. I wish I had it back as soon as I released it.

Shots are going to start falling for us eventually. As long as we play good defense, good things are going to happen.

We have a lot to prove. Ohio State is a very good team. We have to play our best to win.

We played our game at our pace. And I think that’s why we won this game.

She’s Magic Johnson. She can do it all. She can get a rebound, take it the length of the floor, look the other way and throw it behind her back or between her legs.

Defensively we came out and we were aggressive. They just didn’t knock down shots and credit our defense for that.

We’re going to have to get out and contest their shots. This is a huge game for them and we expect them to play their guts out.

When we talked to Morgan and Nancy and Roger, they have nothing but great things to say about her. I trusted Morgan from the beginning to get the best, and I think he did that....

There’s no moral victory here; we wanted to win and that’s why it hurts.

I thought Lindsay was huge down the stretch for us.

(In the first half) we started to get into their tempo. We wanted to stay away from that.

For 40 minutes I thought we played extremely good basketball.

Who know what would have happened if we played like that for 40 minutes. But I thought we showed great character battling back the way we did.

It’s one and done in the Big Ten tourney, one and done in the NCAA tourney.

In the first half, coach got on us a little because we took some quick shots.

I was hurting in places that hadn’t hurt before. (The Gophers) are so physical one through five and that’s how they play.

It’s a matter of taking it as we did with every other home game this year. It doesn’t guarantee us anything but it’s going to be nice to play in front of the home fans.

We kind of got real fired up when coach Curry got a (technical).

We came here thinking and knowing we were gonna win. That’s why it kind of sucks right now.

Aya carried us in the start of the second half.

They’re a hard-nosed, physical team and that’s what they live by. We didn’t fall down, we kept punching back. I thought our post players did a good job in there. (Their four post players) are...

For 40 minutes, I think we played extremely good basketball. We came out a little sluggish to start the second half, but we stayed poised and didn’t let it rattle us.

(She is) someone who I’ve always said is my favorite person to play with, and someone I’ll definitely miss playing with.

It didn’t really cross our minds (to foul) and we kind of backed off a little bit and Cyndi made a great shot. Great players make great shots.

She is the Magic Johnson of our game. She can do it all __ make the big shot, rebound and run the ball up and down the floor.

Going down the tunnel we were smiling because we knew we could play better.

We have to do a good job of getting out and contesting their shots.
