“We competed very well against Florida (in a 77-66 loss on Wednesday) and were right there with a chance to win at the end. We have improved a lot this season -- there's no doubt about it.”
“I really don't have any problem with (the rematch) part of the equation. They are a very, very good team that is playing their best basketball right now. We certainly know that better than anyone.”
“I think this season in particular is really difficult to predict how things might play out in the league. Our team is as unpredictable as any team in the league. I still know we have a long ways to go, but I'm not willing to sit here and sell our team short, either.”
“I know we'll be improved, but I don't know how much improved and I don't want to put a cap on it either. We're excited about the possibilities. The possibilities are enormous, but the unknowns are enormous, too.”
“This is a disappointing turn of events. It is disappointing for the team because we were really looking forward to the impact Kendrick would have made this season. It is also disappointing for Kendrick to have to start his college career this way.”
“Steve has been unable to operate at the standards which we've set for Georgia basketball. I'm disappointed because I know what great benefit our program can be for a young man like Steve. But we wish him nothing but the best as he moves forward.”
“This is a shame because Corey has missed most of the past year of competition and has been working so hard to get back on the court. Now, his poor judgment and mistake in behavior are only further delaying his opportunity to compete. I'm hopeful that Corey grows from this episode and keeps working to put himself in position to contribute to this program.”
