behind happy julius losses mentality point relief stay succeed win
I don't know if it's a relief or not, because it's one and done at this point and you've got to put this win behind just like the losses you put behind. If you want to succeed on Sunday, you can't get too happy and you can't be satisfied. You've got to stay hungry. Like Julius (Hodge) said, 'When you're hungry, you eat.' And that's the mentality we've got to have right now.
days fine sleep three
I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight, but it's nothing but a bruise. We got the win, so it doesn't matter. I'll be fine two or three days from now.
handling job officials quite sure television
I didn't quite see what happened, but I'm sure the officials went over to the television and made the right call. I think we were all frustrated. But that's something we need to do a better job of handling ourselves.
body four good hope judged last losses year
I hope this year is not judged by our last four losses because we had a very good season. We should be judged by our good body of work.
forward last looking missed
I'm actually looking forward to it. We didn't play over there last year, and really, I kind of missed it.
bad game good last move ncaa season seed time tony
I feel bad for Cam, Tony and myself, but at the same time we've got to move forward. This is the last game at home, for sure, but there's a lot of season left. There's one more season game, and we'll go into the ACC Tournament. We'll play as well as we can so we can get a good seed in the NCAA Tournament. It's sad, true, but it's not the end of the world.
adversity grant great guys playing somebody stepping
That's part of adversity -- somebody going down and somebody stepping up. I think Gavin Grant has been playing great for us. We just need to have more guys playing well.
feeling good playing though
That's such a good feeling to get when you're on the court, and you're doing that to the other team. And you know that even though you're ahead, you're stomping and you keep playing hard, you keep playing defense.
missed shots
It's an ugly, embarrassing loss. We missed our shots and they made theirs.
earlier improved played season whipped
They just whipped our tails. They're a lot better than they were earlier in the season when we played them, and unfortunately for us, we haven't improved as much.
beautiful everybody playing
It was beautiful to watch. Everybody was playing unselfishly.
against bounce character quick top turnaround
It's going to take some character for us to bounce back, with the quick turnaround against another top team.
feels felt pain
It's getting better every day. But I'm not going to say it feels good. I felt pain with every step.
plays scouting
It usually comes down to who plays the hardest. Put scouting aside, and it's very important that we play hard. If you don't show up, you're going to go home.
