The (basketball) coaches bring it up a lot, especially when they are putting us through our drills. They'll remind us that we didn't finish the job. I just tell him, 'C'mon, Coach. Don't talk like that. That's pretty harsh.' But they know how to motivate us.

We're so eager to get back in the playoffs and make another run. We want to show that we're not just a great football team but that we're also a great basketball team, too.

I think we bring an intensity to the game. We don't mind diving on the floor for loose balls. That's our job. That's why we're here. We go in there and do the banging.

We don't give him anything just because he's Armon. We make sure he has to work hard every single day. We don't want to make it easy for him because we know the teams we play won't make it easy on him.

He'll get a little big-headed now and then just like everybody else. He'll put up a couple jump shots that he shouldn't take once in a while. But that's OK. We know he's our best offensive player. He's earned it.

What helps us is that we know what it takes to win. We know you have to work hard in practice day in and day out. That's how you become a champion. We found that out in football.
