I'm real proud of this group of seniors. They're very dedicated and they've worked very hard. I wish the ending could have been better for them. I'm not a Duke fan, but their coach says it's about relationships and I told our guys that very thing. There are some bonds there that go beyond the court. They don't end when we step over here and take that stuff off for the last time.

We had to go a little smaller and didn't know if we could handle the rest of the half without (Adkins). I thought Walter Wilson stepped in and did a nice job. He made a steal and a score, and then a 3-pointer. I though that made a big difference for us in the last stages of the half.
