I think that's just me, the team and the coaching staff having so much fun. It's a once in a lifetime thing, so there's no point in getting stressed.

Nobody out here is having more fun than we are, and we wanted to keep it that way. Right now, it hurts. We didn't want this season to end this way. We wanted to be carrying the trophy out of here, but you can't win 'em all.

Even our bookstore didn't have the greatest amount. We had a Jai Lewis jersey. I think that might have been it.

It's just the beauty of basketball. Anybody can come out and compete and earn themselves a national championship.

There were probably more people at practice than at our games. I know I've never practiced in front of 10,000 people before. To see everybody is just wild.

Anyone who watches enough college basketball and the NCAA tournament knows that it's never over until it's over. We're just a bunch of composed guys and we didn't buckle under the pressure. That's what's gotten us this far.
