arrive aside banner conference heads listen perfectly prove raised talking
I don't think the conference has done all that well, to be perfectly honest. I think this is a conference that will arrive late. I don't know why, but it will reassert itself. We haven't raised the banner very high, aside from Washington. We have a lot to prove as a conference. I'm not disturbed. I don't listen to talking heads that the conference is overrated. It will come out in the wash.

They won the game in the first 10 minutes and there was nothing that we could do to cut into that margin. They basically took our heart early, and we're not a team that has a lot of comeback potential. This is a game that we were just dominated by vastly superior players and a coach.
beauty course knows realistic thankful three tournament win
It's as realistic for us to win three games, so why not four. Someone has to suffer. I'm just thankful to be in, and who knows what could happen. That's the beauty of tournament time. But, of course it's going to be hard.

It was good that Jim put this in writing. It puts Tony's mind at ease and certainly mine as well.
