We got beat by a much better basketball team today. Albany has great pieces. They just have a lot of weapons.

We got beat by a much better basketball team today. They had a lot to do with how we played.

I?m very proud of how they played. They played their hearts out for 45 minutes. Coming off the other night against Maine at home I was concerned with how we?d respond. It?s just a great win for us.

[N.C. State is] a very good basketball team, and they're really hard to play against. I love the way they play. Herb does a great job with that program. They have a lot of weapons, and you really have to pick your poison defensively. ? They're a very efficient team. I like their chemistry.

You never want to see anybody leave. But that's college basketball. The most important thing is that kids be happy. It's his decision. We wish him the best.

He's gotten really big. He's a heck of a player. I loved him last year as a freshman, but when I look at him now, he's really gotten big and can move. It looks like he's gotten stronger this year, physically. If they start getting strong play out of him in the post, [State] is going to be really hard to stop.
