lie minutes syracuse team thinking within
We can't get bigheaded. We can't just think every team is going to lie down after we get a big victory. We were thinking Syracuse was going to lie down after those first 30 minutes and they actually crawled back to get within two possessions. You can't do that.
couple free minutes physical throws tired tough
I was tired with 3 minutes left. That's about as tough as it gets. That was a physical game. I made those free throws because there were a couple of timeouts there that made it easier. I'm tired.
coming game looked minutes since three tired toughest tv waited
This was probably the toughest game since I've been back. I was tired with like three minutes left. I kind of looked at him (Calhoun) for a sub and he said we had a TV timeout coming up. So I waited. I waited it out, but I was tired.

Everything about him is competitive. It seems like he wants the spotlight on him when they're down 15 with 10 minutes left. It seems like he likes that.
few fight five last minutes ncaa needed next offense points seven six solid stick team wants
In the NCAA Tournament, no team is going to go away easy. Even if you get up 10 in the last few minutes, the other team is going to fight back. Everyone wants to get to the next round. I didn't think it was going to be easy, even when we got up seven points with five or six minutes left. We just needed to stick with our offense and play solid defense.

I think we had a solid season. We had 30 wins. That's a big season for us. We won the Big East. We got to the Elite Eight. It's a great season, but I think we could have done a lot more.

I think so. When we come out clicking and we're all on the same page, we're a pretty good team.
drift rebounds saw shooting tried
I saw it was kind of long, so I tried to just drift to the other side. I've never had 10 rebounds. Ever. I never had 10 rebounds shooting by myself.
came coming knew missing needed whoever
We've needed that all year, coming and not missing a beat, so whoever came in we knew it was the same intensity.
fire
Play With Fire, ... there's no iBook in team.
lie playing
Playing a No. 16 seed, sometimes you think they are going to lie down and give us the win. We need to go out and take the first hit.
funny handle harsh prepared
I think I'm prepared for it, just because of my personality and the way I am. I know there's going to be some harsh things, some funny things. I'm going to try and take it all in as a joke, go out there and handle my business.
