We've got a lot of kids going through the conference tournament for the first time. We've got to keep them focused and try not to make it more than it is.

We were all just shocked because at 49 years of age he has grown kids and he's a full time pilot.

I am glad to get out of here with a win. This game got really sloppy and it looked like we were starting to let it slip away. I am proud that we finished strong and earned the victory. I thought we shot the ball extremely well in the first half and that really went a long way towards this win. This is a big win for our young team in a very difficult place to play.

I thought that was just a great college basketball game. Both teams played with heart and soul.

This was a great college basketball game. Both teams left it all out on the floor tonight. I felt like the real difference in the game was our ability to get defensive stops in the second half that fueled our offensive tempo. I am very proud of my team and the way the made plans down the stretch to earn the win.

We are not playing with the same intensity and effort that we were earlier in the season. We could see this coming.
