Last year put a sour taste in our mouth. We're not going to take anything for granted. In our minds, we have to continue to win.

She's tremendous. But she has been fabulous since she set foot on the floor here. Even as a freshman, she was never a true freshman. She has given every ounce of energy she has had and been a lot of fun to watch.

She's thinking about it way too much. She's definitely struggling shooting. It's nice to win games without her. It forces people to bring their game up another level. That's a good thing, because when we get Crystal back, we'll be a better team because of it.

She's thinking about it way too much. It's nice to be able to win games without her, and it really forces people into a situation where they have to bring their game up another level.
