There were points and times where I felt like we were so close. We just needed one big stop.
Definitely it was fun in the second half when we started coming back and making a run and started stopping them defensively. That was a big key in the win.
Coach Bess is a hard worker. He made me a hard worker and has a lot to do with who I am.
I know I've got a few of them and something I'm proud of.
I knew the basket was around and I thought maybe if I tapped it up and it still didn't go in I'd have a chance to get the rebound. I was a little shocked. I didn't know if it was going to roll off or come back at me.
If Sean May and Marvin still would have been here, I think I could have learned a lot from them. . . . But with them gone, I fell in the mix real quick. I've had a lot of experience that a lot of freshmen don't get so soon. . . . I've learned that way, too.
I don't look at it much, but I know I've got a few of them. It's something that I'm proud of.
I developed a routine where if I didn't get into the gym and shoot every day, it felt kind of awkward; it felt like I was letting myself down.
It's not something we've talked about, you know.
It's a small community. Everybody knows each other.
I've got a lot of other stuff to focus on; I'm not even thinking about that.
It was partly my fault. My movement wasn't as it should have been.
Arizona, they're usually a powerhouse, and it shows we can pretty much play with a lot of people.
They brought a lot of people at me and it was hard to find space to move.
