«We had these same problems last year, except we had great experience. Last year we were able to [win despite] the injuries because it was Conference USA.

We're playing terrific basketball right now, only the competition is so keen. It's unbelievable. I've never seen the Big East like this. It's always been great, but it's never been like this. It's truly unbelievable.»

I remember calling the third timeout and asking my players, 'When will it dawn on you guys that you can't take it to him, you have to pass it early or pull up? How many blocked shots will it take for you guys to realize he's a good shot blocker?' In this game, it's the same way. You've got to understand when you can take it in there and when you can't and you've got to obviously pick your spots.»

«Eric Hicks is inch-for-inch, pound-for-pound the toughest ballplayer in America. He is a tough son of a gun. Blocking him out is a very difficult assignment; you have to do it with three guys. He's like a great lineman. He's an unbelievable re- bounder.»

«I think the week off is a good thing now, especially for David. Resting the knee is important.»
