coach east happy step time toward win
It's big to come and win here. It's the first time in history. I'm happy for coach Stringer. We look at it as a step toward the Big East title.
character felt fight scoring shows
I felt unstoppable. (Dickson) is a scoring threat, no doubt. ... It shows a lot about our character that we were able to fight and not give up.
contend forward looking national necessary pieces
I feel we have all the necessary pieces to contend for a national title. We really got a chance. We still got a lot more to go, and I'm looking forward to it.

You come this far and work so hard, you don't want to share anything. They don't want to share with us.
game played team virginia west win won zone
There was no way I could win this game for us. They played a 2-3 zone and I can't do it by myself. It's a team game and West Virginia played as a team. We did not play as a team offensively or defensively. There was no way I could have won this game for us.
definitely east monkey time win
It's big to come and win here for the first time in history. It's definitely a monkey off our backs, but they still have to come to our place and then in the Big East tournament, so it's not over.
definitely focus quite remember run sure temple
I'm definitely quite sure they're going to give us a run for our money. But we just have to come in and focus and just always remember that Temple loss.
caused problems tough
I think the 3-2 match-up caused a lot of problems - it's tough to go against. That's something we've got to get better at as a team.
attack came everybody high intensity level offensive plays second senses smart surprise
Everybody came back to their senses (in the second half) and we started making smart plays on the offensive end. But they were able to attack (early) and get the momentum. The intensity level for them was very high and they're going to surprise some people.
capable free given night surprised team worried
I'm not surprised at all. I know what this team is capable of on any given night and as long as we play free I'm not worried at all.
home lost sharper
There has to be a sharper focus. This is a wake-up call, definitely. We haven't lost at home in a while.
enjoy experience expressing talk talking
We talk all the time. We were just talking about expressing how we should feel. We just have to enjoy the day because this experience will never come around again.
finding games guards inside job post question rebound variety
We just have to get better every day, there's no question about that. From the inside to the outside, the guards have to do a better job of finding the post and the posts have to rebound and finish. There are a variety of things that we have to do and that will only come with the more games that we play.
