We played a few non-conference games early against some teams that were better, and now we?re into our conference schedule, so hopefully we continue to play a lot better.

I think we're better than what we showed out there today...I'm sure we're better. But we've got a ways to go to be competitive in this conference. We'll see what happens next season.

I haven't heard anything (about when he might return). I really don't know. He's been at games, and last week, he practiced. I know he's been working out. I think he's coming on our next trip with us.

It's been hard for me because I still believe, if you're going to win the big games, you have to rush the football. They scored so fast tonight, it seemed like we were playing defense all the time.

Marco missed eight games this season, but he deserves to be a first team all-star. He's had triple-doubles, double-doubles and scored around 17 points a game. I don't know what the kid has to do.

We dominated in the second half and felt we did enough to win that game. We've got six games to go and we've got to take something out of every game we play.
