They had to do what they had to do. I couldn't have chosen a better situation than what I'm in right now. I'm where I'm supposed to be.

We're a fearless team. We got a lot of poise ... I felt like we were ready for it, but we could have done a better job with their pressure defense.

Coach has faith in me. I knew he was a great coach. No one has such trust in his players.

I spend 85 percent of my day right here (McGuire Center). I don't get back to my room until 10:30 or 11.

The most important aspect of college basketball has been being a student of the game more than anything. You no longer can go out there and just beat people on your talent. You have to know the game.

I love coming home, especially with a victory.
