I think it's a great opportunity to showcase your entire program. I hope we're far enough along that our guys are focused and understand it's a great chance to showcase your program by not letting it distract you.

I don't think there is anybody in the country that has done a better coaching job than Monte. His kids showed an unbelievable amount of toughness and resiliency with what they have had to deal with off the court and their injury troubles. They finished the year playing really well and competed like they always do.

We are shocked and saddened by the tragic news we received this morning. Danny was loved and respected by not only everyone in the basketball program, but by many people in the Western community. Our thoughts and prayers are with Danny's family.

I think Anthony went out and does what he does best. He got another win. I think he played well. We had other guys who had open shots. I thought Anthony was outstanding tonight.

It was a wake-up call for our team. Anthony has responded great. There was a whole misconception of that whole deal. Anthony and I have a great relationship. He and the rest of the team took it for what it was: a challenge, a challenge for them to be better.

The great thing about Anthony Winchester is that he is very tough-minded and always responds to challenges ... . I think he showed that on the defensive end tonight and really showed it on the offensive end by hitting 10 of 13 shots.
