This is a big win for us. Especially with three straight road games coming up. And it was a big deal to beat a ranked opponent. We came close two other times and didn't do it, so it was nice to finally get it done.

Like, Saturday, we have a rivalry game with Seton Hall. In high school, we had rivalry games. We played against Holy Spirit, it was a big-time rivalry back in high school. People would get there two hours ahead to try to get in. Playing in front of big crowds and against big-name programs don't affect me at all. I'm able to keep my composure.

That (Saint Mary's) was a tough game for us, on the road and a hostile environment. I think I really grew from that game. I kept my composure and we executed down the stretch.

This is exciting, winning a game like this on the road. This is what we're trying to establish, winning on the road in the Big East, and I think we're doing a good job of doing that early so far.

My follow-through wasn't the same. When you have a bad wrist like that you try to make adjustments shooting the ball and obviously there's going to be some flaws to the shot.

It's very tough because we fought hard and we made some big shots down the stretch, you would have thought would put us over the edge. I think the main thing is we have to keep our focus and not hang our heads because we have to go back to practice and get better for Seton Hall.

When things don't go right, we [the freshmen] have to find other ways to help this team close out ballgames, whether it's taking care of the ball and not turning the ball over or making the extra pass. Situations like that, we have to help our team win.

My wrist has been feeling better the last few days and I felt a lot more comfortable shooting the ball, dribbling the ball. I just felt like my whole self.

A lot of people are saying this and that about Coach, but he's a wonderful guy and a great coach. To see the stuff he's been going through, we just wanted to rally behind him and let him know we're behind him 100 percent.
people wonderful great guy
Coach assured us that he's secure and he's willing to move on. If he can put it past him, then we can put it behind us and just play basketball.
past play basketball
