It doesn't take a Rhodes scholar, ... if a guy is shooting 41 percent and a guy is shooting 53 percent, who the best shooter in the country is. If he played in the East, he'd be first-team all-America. He'd be the number one two-guard in the country.

Obviously they gave the (technical) to the wrong guy. They gave it to Marcus Williams and that would have been his fourth foul ... I was trying to get the guy's attention that made the call to go check the monitor or something because it was obvious that Marcus was totally out of there.

There was so much hype about Gonzaga they just couldn't carry it through.
