We need to push the tempo, get it inside, play hard on defense, and do what coach asks us to do. We have to play good defense first. Defense wins championships and offense wins games.

It's a building block we can learn from and then move on. We need to keep trying to get better and keep winning.

You have to give him a little room -- not too much room -- but you have to give him enough room that just in case he does go you can have a chance to recover. You basically have to rely on your instincts more than anything. He's a quick player but I'm pretty quick, too.

We're automatically supposed to push the ball up. It was a big emphasis to keep pushing it up because we saw the big men weren't running back.

We showed character and we showed fight. We got down, and we still continued to fight and lost by eight.

I just want to go out and play hard, try to contribute and push the tempo. We need to go in there and do what we need to do, play our type of game, and get a win.

It was the coach's decision. Whatever he has for me, I'll just come in and contribute for the team.

That should have no affect on us. We've played enough road games to be ready for any crowd.

Once a person has made up their mind, it's hard to change their mind.
