“I don't know if it's a trap game, but having only two days to prepare for a team we've never faced before, it does present some dangers. I'm sure they'll be ready for us, but at the same time, we've put the Cincinnati game to bed.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“It was a scramble situation. I picked up the ball and they had a guy on their team diving for the ball, and he hit my leg, and that was pretty much the end of it. It really didn't hurt as bad as I would have expected. ... As the situation stood, I felt it and heard it, so I pretty much immediately knew I was done for the year.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“I think it's become a sense of desperation to some extent. We know that when we play games like Charlotte - we have another game coming up against a physical team in UC who does a good job on the boards - if we don't rebound the ball well, we're not going to win.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“I missed out, but I think I let the team down, not being able to play. It was definitely disappointing for me not to be there night in and night out. There were times when the team needed me, especially in the conference, and I wasn't able to perform up to my capabilities.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“I'm just trying to play hard. This time last year, I was injured. It feels good to be healthy, and I'm just trying to give it my all. Coach Miller has expressed the fact that the team in general and the coaching staff has gotten us to January, and it's kind of on the seniors to get us to March. I'm trying to take a little extra on my back.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“To some extent, granted they weren't in the A-10, but they had earned an opportunity to be ranked that high after making the NCAA Tournament the last few years. Nobody in the A-10 had done that. They put themselves in position to be looked at that way.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“Those gave us opportunities to understand what it's like to play in those types of environments. . . . A lot of games throughout the course of the conference season . . . are going to come down to the final four minutes of the game. Having the ability to finish and close the deal is going to be very important to our ability to be successful in the conference season.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“Josh did a great job tonight, but it's not just tonight. He's done well the last several games and in practice. When Josh is playing well, it gives us a lot of versatility. When Josh is hitting shots and doing a great job on the boards, it gives us a lot more options.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“The beauty of the situation is we were able to find other ways to win, and we were able to scratch it out.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“We didn't knock down our free throws like we'd like to. You shoot 100 free throws on game day but you can't hit the ones that count down the stretch. We still got it done down the stretch and got the win.”
