That's why I was hanging my head. When it first happened I was like, 'You can't be serious, not another knee injury.' That's why I was so scared. We've had a lot of knee injuries on this team and I didn't want to be another one.
That's just what we do. That's how we play. That's our system. Until somebody decides to stop us guards, then we'll continue to do that. Once they do stop us or we have an off night, we have guys that we can go inside too. A lot of people don't think we have an inside game.
They have a couple of great shooters, and we have to get out and contest their shots. And they have a big guy down low that is going to be a handful.
We are here to take care of business.
The real good teams and the real great teams find a way to win.
We realized it as soon as the game was over. We ran into the locker room yelling, 'Big East champs!' That was such a good feeling.
I'm really just moving on. I've got this season to worry about now.
I just hope the MRI is in my favor.
I haven?t been on New York?s public transit system since I got my car four years ago. I drive everywhere.
Honestly, to tell you the truth, it's not like a big sense of excitement right now. We're just here to take care of business.
I feel like coach puts the ball in my hands for a reason.
I couldn?t find my shot in the trials, ... I couldn?t make anything. Playing defense in the one thing that Coach Wright has instilled in me. You?re going to have off day offensively, but you can never have an off day defensively.
It's pretty sore right now, but the doctor said it's going to be like that. You just have to do what's best. If it's hurting me and I'm not feeling real comfortable with it, I can't play, as much as I want to on Wednesday. I'm just going to take this day by day and see how it feels. If I feel I can go 100 percent, then I'm definitely going to play. If not, I'll just have to sit the game out.
That's one thing Coach stressed early in the season, that if we're going to play four guards, we better rebound.
