forget great program taken
I'll have nothing but great memories. They're awesome, and they've had a great run. They've taken our program to a new level, and we'll never forget them.
nine playing
Sanders didn't play the first nine games, but he's back and playing at a different level.
monster
Esparza was sensational tonight. He had a monster game.
limits player role
He's a role player on our team, but I think sometimes he limits his role more than he should.
davis played playing
I'm going to tell Anthony he's playing Davis every night. He played very well.
deserved game win year
I thought this was the first game all year we deserved to win and didn't.
call college
I don't want to get fined or anything, but it's a call you don't see much in college basketball.
foul good hope kinds until
I won't know if it was a foul until I see it. I hope it was a good foul and not one of those other kinds of fouls.
ourselves position proud
I'm proud of our guys. We've put ourselves in a position to do what we want to do.
active christian focused great player
I thought Christian was really a great player tonight. He was real aggressive, real active and real focused on what he had to do.
move tough
There were other things, too - things we didn't do as well as we would like - but that's the way it is. It was a tough call, but you've got to live with it and move on.
everywhere guys happens hungry people proud prove rest taken team whatever
Our guys are hungry to prove people wrong. This team has taken a lot of flak. Everywhere you turn, people are questioning how well this team can come around. I just said, 'Give it time. Give it time.' Well, here we are, and whatever happens the rest of the year, I'm going to be proud of this team.
revenge knows
I don't know about them, but I sure am. I'm out for revenge.
almost beat carolina duke good north obviously
Wow, they are athletic, disciplined and well-coached. That's not a very good combination. They're obviously tested. If you can beat North Carolina one day and almost beat Duke the next, you're obviously very, very good.
