freshmen great listen realize seniors struggled successful takes team understand work
They understand how you have to play and how things work and who to listen to. We've all been through it. The seniors have been through it more than anyone. They've struggled and they've been a great team so they know what it takes to be successful and the freshmen realize that.
They made us play the way they wanted us to play.

Coach was calling the plays and telling me to make plays. I just do what he says.

I?m really prepared for every worst case scenario. If I go second round I?m prepared to do that. If I go first round I?m prepared to do that. I think I?m going to be mentally prepared to do anything, first round or second round.
against court fun great high played player school
I played against him enough in my high school career. He's a great player who comes to play on every possession. I know he'll play hard, and it will be fun to see him out on the court again. But it won't be about me and him. It will be about Villanova and Arizona.
decision easy people telling wish
I keep telling people I don't know how I feel, I really don't. I wish it was an easy decision but there are so many things to consider. I don't know when I'll decide.

It's tough, you know. But that's a great team. They're going to get back.
ball happened perfect
The ball just happened to be at the perfect place at the perfect time. I just happened to be there and tipped it in.
correct definitely mistakes practice review
It's definitely important, and you know it's going to be a big game, but you still have to go back and review the film on DePaul and see the mistakes that we made and correct them in practice tomorrow.

It was a very difficult situation. I thought long and hard about it, and I felt really good with the decision I just made.
best came conference country good opinion passed teams test
This was a good test for the Big East. Look at the teams in our conference. It?s the best conference in the country in my opinion and I think we passed the test. We got banged up a little bit, but we came through it and prevailed.
