I am proud of our guys, because we were in it until the end. N.C. State is a good team, with lots of veterans, and we stayed tough and I am very encouraged about that.

Duke's done that for quite a few years now. Players know their roles. You don't have a lot of guys sitting on the end of the bench who think they should be playing.

I'm proud of our guys. We faced good arms both nights and got our hits.

It feels great. I'm real proud of those guys.

We had a good season. I'm proud of the guys. They came together. We had mixtures of some solid seniors and brought some freshmen and sophomores up. We got good experience all year, and the future's very bright.

A lot of vets like 'Good Morning Vietnam' - I get great letters from guys.
