I think early in the year, it was real bad for me to find my role because last year, I handled the ball and did pretty much everything. It was hard for me to adjust at just running the wing this season, but I think it will come. I just have to stay aggressive like coach wants me to do, and I think I'll be all right.

We don't want any more morale victories. We don't want to just come close. We've come close too many times. We want to win. We played hard, but down the stretch Illinois made more plays.

I've been trying to come out and be a consistent player for the most part, and when it doesn't happen for you, of course it's frustrating.
