It's been a great ride these last five years and I just thank everyone who's supported me.

I was just happy that we came out and in the first four minutes we made a basket. Last year we didn't make a basket for the first three minutes. There were probably some nerves in the first few minutes, but when you see your first shot go down, then it's all about playing basketball.

We've been here. We kind of understand what's going on and hopefully we'll be ready those first five minutes. I'd say it was a big surprise for us to see that 12 seed. But we're definitely going to take it. We're not going to argue about it.

I just think the only thing I can do to be successful at this level — or at any level — is to play harder than the person across from me and have a little bit more heart than they do.

Because if you get down against a team like BC, your chances are very slim.

That's what we're trying to do. Fortunately we took advantage of this.

I thrive off of these types of situations and I can't wait to get out there.

We have to be. If we want to have any success in this tournament we have to do it. We're probably a little under-talented, but we'll play better as a team.

There's 15 to 20 guys in here that have faith in what we're doing and that's all we need.
