When Wilt played, there weren't a lot of guys his size. Now you've got guards that are 6-7 or 6-8. For (Bryant) to do that is a phenomenal feat.

The guys that came in ... played very well for Newcastle.

There have been a lot of great teams who have played on this floor. None have gone undefeated.

Dan has done a tremendous job keeping his guys together and playing extremely hard. They're going to be very dangerous down the stretch and, in particular, the Big Ten tournament.

I'm so very, very proud of our guys ... they came in here and played their tails off in a hostile environment. They just fought and hung in there when things got tough. We didn't panic, and we were able to escape out of here with a victory.

I was excited to get both those guys down there, but both of them when they came off the mat said that they were not ready to wrestle. I think the ambiance got to them, which can be the case when it's your first time down there.
