We're trying to do something that no other team at the school has done. We have a nice run going. We see no reason to let down. We'll take it as far as we can and see how it turns out.

I felt comfortable around the guys. I felt it would be a good place for me. ... I respect Coach Rives a lot. I believe in the type of basketball he likes to play. It was a great situation for me here.

I had a good year, but those guys had good years, too. It could have gone to any of us. I know it was a tough vote.

I have no reason to feel bitter or think about anything in the past. This is the best place I can be.
