The coaches have stressed that stat to us, but I've never played a minute down there. We've got to approach this game like we do any other game against an opponent that has been traditionally tough at home like Miami.

Maybe it'll be a good thing. Maybe we just need to get out of here and just say it's us or nothing.

I think that's what coach Walker did when he got here was to make us believe that we're always the underdog. And we've been the underdog a lot. But as far as losing, that doesn't help at all. We need to turn the corner. We need to have a snowball effect with winning, not the other way around.

We have a mechanism in place to do what a union claims it can do for us.

We knew they had to foul down the stretch and shoot threes and make us miss. It was big to finish like that. It really started to sink in when I was shooting free throws. It's still sinking in. It's big. It's the 2A championship.

He told us this is your team, and that he was our coach. Then he said something about us beating Florida that I can't repeat.
