“We started three guys who haven't played a minute of Division I basketball in this type of environment, and I thought they showed a lot of poise right from the beginning. I thought we competed on every possession right to the end of the game, which was what we had hoped we would do.”
“I think it feels very good to get the win. We've played very hard lately but we haven't been able to get results. We were able to get the monkey off our back.”
“It's a play that's designed to get him a shot, but I can't take too much credit. I designed plays for 39 minutes in this game that made us look like one of the worst offensive teams in history, so ... he deserves the credit for making a really good play.”
“I think the defense is playing hard. But still, our margin for error is not that great. There are still defensive breakdowns. In the second half, we don't guard a couple of screens, leave a guy and he hits a 3 at a critical time.”
“It was a tough make, but it was clearly after the horn went off. We did get it up there pretty quickly. I think by the guy running up on him, it didn't allow him to turn and square as soon as he would've liked to.”
