There's no question he was huge.

It's just a credit to our players. Hey, they just roll with the punches. That's just a testament to their toughness and their character.

That's one of the things I think that you're going to continue to see, the George Mason run. I think they had three players that were fifth-year seniors. It's such an advantage to be older than your opponent both mentally and physically, and to have that experience of having gone through the ups and downs.

The bottom line is, we make those foul shots, Steele doesn't have that shot down the stretch.

What a great feeling, to still be playing and to beat an outstanding team like Memphis. I'm really proud of the defense we played today. The defense was just incredible.

This is his second broken nose of the year. He's got two broken noses and a broken leg going right now. Hopefully, he can stay healthy here the rest of the way.
