The last two possessions we did not do what we wanted to do. We were running a certain pattern, and one time we got confused. It just takes one person to get confused, and it throws everybody off. That's just the way it goes. We'll learn something from it. It's hard to do that in that atmosphere.

It's tough to get in a rhythm in this league. You can go to playing teams who play all zone one day, to teams who play all (man-to-man defense) the next.

I'm glad he made it. They had their guys in the corners to try to kick it out for the tie.

I thought we had tremendous looks, but we just couldn't knock them down.

It was a great basketball game and it brought back memories of when we were shooting so well from the outside, a great moment in West Virginia history. I just wish it could have ended up with a win.

We just couldn't get over the hump. That's just the way it goes. We'll learn something from it.

They weren't going to give us a 3. We should have put it inside, but nobody was there.

It was painful at times. I've watched bits and pieces of the whole game several times this week and it was a tremendous basketball game and they just kept coming back.

We learned at Syracuse that we had to attack inside and outside for scoring success. It's rare that you see a game where we shoot twenty-some percent (from 3-point range) and win.
