My dad told me it was a great opportunity for me. It was my chance to go to a school and make my mark.

Jesus recognized he was going to have a chance. He dedicated himself, and when he got the opportunity, he took advantage.

The main thing that makes this team so good is the depth and unselfishness. Any given night, somebody else can step up, make the big shot.

Getting here early gives me a chance to get started ahead of the other freshmen.

Miami was my dream school. But they wanted to wait to see what I did as a senior before deciding to offer or not. What if I waited and they didn't offer? I had several offers. I didn't want to drag out the recruiting process. I feel comfortable with my decision to go to Illinois.

He gave me an opportunity when everybody turned their back on me. He gave me a chance to come to school. He accepted me into his family. It was a great experience for me at UConn and I am grateful to him for that. I wouldn't miss this for anything.
