attitude battles extremely freshman freshmen great hard works
(Hansbrough) is very focused. He works extremely hard. He battles as hard as any freshman I have ever been around. Ever. ... You usually don't find freshmen with that kind of attitude and work ethic. That's a great quality.
dreaming help hoped hoping stop
I hoped that we would really play well, I hoped we would really play hard, and I hoped that would help us be very successful. But there's still a lot out there. We're hoping and dreaming that we won't stop right now.

I saw Moss blaze down the seam, ... I wasn't able to take the right position. I should have read it faster and taken the proper angle. I take all the blame.
fire happen happy quit team walk
I was dumfounded. We didn't have the fire ... it was the most disappointing thing that we've had to happen all season. But other than that (stretch), I was happy with the effort. ... But if I ever have a team to quit, I'll walk out of here and quit coaching.

I am deeply saddened to say there was evidently a mistake.

I can remember a time when you were a No. 1, No. 2 or No. 3 (seed), the first couple of games you could win without playing well. I don't think you can do that anymore.

We're on paper right now. Those guys in Green Bay are tops on the field.
couple craig gotten offensive plays rebounds smith stops stuff
You look back at one play here and one play there and all that kind of stuff but they made the plays when they had to. If we could've gotten a couple of offensive rebounds or a couple of stops but we didn't. But I think Craig Smith was sensational.
