We're anticipating him playing. We're going to prepare as if he's going to be there. He's such an integral part of what they do, it's easier to scale back than to not be fully prepared.

We're playing a team in South Florida that has yet to scratch in the Big East. But they had a chance to win here [at Georgetown] a few weeks ago and they had Villanova on the ropes. It's going to be a battle.

Obviously, we could have done better. I had a few stumbles, but I wasn't anticipating to come here and have three flawless performances.

We're anticipating full recovery for all of them.

I am going to be addressing people's hopes, not playing on people's fears.

Anybody that thinks I'm a better coach than him has been out to lunch too long.
