Matt Painter has done probably the best job of any coach in our league when you look at the players he lost.

Dee Brown is one of the best players in our league. He's going to come in and try to carry them by himself. He did that in the Michigan State game.

Tucker is by far one of the top two best players in the league, along with (Illinois guard) Dee Brown.

I feel like that is disrespect for me as a coach. If I can bring players in recruiting-wise, why can't I coach them?

I think Trent is going to be one of the best players in this league when it's all said and done.

I think it's a credit to the players themselves. And I think (coach) Scott Gordon does a terrific job with the team in Providence. We play similar ways, so from a tactical standpoint there's not a lot of difference. I think all of those things kind of make the transition a little more seamless.
