“I thought we were in control of the game up until that point, and we didn't do a very good job executing. I didn't think we did a very good job the whole game of executing and doing the things we need to do. We played very lethargic.”
“People look at the way we play and think we take a lot of bad shots. They're really passes. When you get those guys in there and their used to the ball coming off the rim, it's just like a pass.”
“(Navarro) did a good job in the first half of doubling us off our ball screens. They tried to put their big (guy) on my little (guy), and once we got our guy to pull him it opened it up for everybody.”
“(Kilgore has) had four really great games for us. He's used to playing against teams like Memphis and UAB. When you get kids like that at this level, you really don't have to do a lot with them. You can't rattle him.”
“I had a defensive and an offensive rotation in the final two minutes, and everybody accepted what they were supposed to do. It's beautiful. It gives us some confidence we haven't been having.”
“Mike stepped up. I couldn't be more pleased. He's a sophomore that's kind of had an up-and-down year, and he played fabulous. With minutes like that, he's going to get some more.”
