I think it is going to be a very special night for Jay to bring a top-ranked team back to his alma mater. For me, it is a chance to welcome a close friend back...

It comes down to wills, and these kids didn’t quit.

We?re trying to keep as much of a routine as possible. If you change that, it gets into the kids? heads and they think this is something different.

It was just the kind of thing where we didn’t read it well. That was a miscommunication, and they happen in the game.

The way it’s gone down here, a dogfight to the finish, last shot would have pleased me just fine. We have that much respect for Lehigh. The way the last couple minutes went, I was...

The Thomas kid is doing it for them lately.

I think a couple of those baskets when we started the second half were kind of like inside baskets, where we stretching a little bit and then going. I thought we weren’t as impatient as...

It?s a chemistry situation defensively. The way we play, it does take experience, just like with a motion offense.

We’re honored and tickled about playing a 9-8 game in the NCAA Tournament. It’s quite historic for us as a program and we’re just real happy. We’ve had a great year and we’re looking forward...

I told the team they can either embrace the rankings or get cocky. I told them they haven?t been (cocky) all year. They have stayed focused on the task at hand.

We’re going to do what we’ve done all season. We’re taking them one game at a time.

We took advantage of the situation. They had two-and-a-half guys on Chris everywhere he went. We penetrated and, rather than finishing, we kicked it out and knocked down some shots.

They look so big on film. They?re all so long and athletic.

At the start of the second half, defensively, we were able to adjust to some of the things they did in the first half but I knew they would never go away and just tried...

I don’t want to go there. I can’t look at that. They’re good enough just by getting in passing lanes. We have a good basketball team, and we’ll play another day.

I did feel like the game was there for the taking from the beginning.

Everybody in the program is very excited about the schedule. It is a credit to our program that we have had a tough time scheduling games, but this year with the team that we have...

I think our kids were a little rushed. It’s playoffs and we played that way. We played really fast.

I think our feet have touched the ground, but just barely.

I don’t know if you can step out of character. This is a group of kids that’s level-headed, they realize how big things are and how important things are, but they have fun. They’ve taught...

I thought we were a little flat in the beginning (against Army). I was thinking about taking a time-out and getting on them a bit (after Army started with a 19-9 lead), but I have...

I thought we did a good job defensively in the first half of taking them out of their offense and that really set the tone for the game. We kept our intensity in the second...

I thought we had to go out there early and make them respect us. I thought we did a great job of that.
