Everybody's going to play bad. I was a little frustrated and aggravated. My first shot got blocked and I hadn't had that happen all year. The team kept motivating me and picking me up.

We feel we are one of the best teams in the country despite our youth. If we continue to execute right we will have an awesome season.

It was hard to sit out. It just hurts to sit out. There is no way to get used to it.

We have to take every opponent seriously, but we were kind of focused on playing Connecticut. You have to take every opponent seriously. These are really tougher games to get up for, because we're supposed to win these games.

I didn't realize that I was so close to a triple-double until I got to the media room. I had no idea I had nine blocks.

I knew this was a tough place to play with 18,000 screaming fans, but we were determined to start the new season undefeated. We were relentless.

People are noticing I'm a good shot blocker. I used to see people going full throttle toward the goal. Now, I see more head fakes and stutter steps.

Hitting the jumpers helps loosen things up. Teams are giving me that shot. It worked for me tonight. They didn't double Glen as much after I made those first two jump shots.

We're not an uptight bunch. We just like to have fun. A lot of coaches like the team to be quiet and focused before a game. The way we focus is to clown around. We think about the task at hand. But we don't worry. We like to have fun, study and practice hard.

It got sore real quick and I thought it was something worse than it really was. The X-rays were negative, and the doctor told me I'm just going to have to play through the soreness. I was just being a little cautious, but it's looking good for me to be ready to go Thursday.
