We're just too busy recruiting.

Coach Self has been good to me, ... When he got there, we talked about the position (of assistant coach). I love that place. It's where I met my wife and got my diploma. That's what's really important. I've got KU all over my office walls. I love the place.

Who am I going for as a fan? That's a tricky question. You trying to trip me up? ... Let's just say I'll definitely be watching the ticker on TV trying to get a score on that game.

I actually called coach Doherty, coach Williams and Pat Riley to call on my behalf.

To show you the type of person he is, he said he would not pursue the job until I said it was OK. It shows the kind of man he is.

A lot of KU players played just as hard as me, guys like (Kirk) Hinrich and (Jerod) Haase, a lot of guys.

I'm happy to be here right now. I love it, ... It's because I get to work for coach Doherty, who has a national championship ring on his finger and helped 20 players get to the NBA. I am having fun and going to learn so much.

We have been getting back to the basic core values of how we think the game should be played. There are so many complex things that you have to do well. It's not a thinking man's game; it's a knowing man's game.
