We'll see. What I'm going to have to do is determine whether it's in (Inman's) best interest to play because this young man has a future beyond this year.

We have to play our very best to have an opportunity in this game. I tell you this, they're not going to go out there to lay down and die, though.

In my estimation, Marquis is the best defensive player in the Big East. He's the most disciplined player I've seen, like a quarterback in football he reads reports and watches tapes every day.

He's getting better and better each time he walks out on that floor, and I don't know if we've seen the best of him yet. That's the scary part of this whole thing.

We were playing three games in five days. These guys played their heart out, especially in the first half. I don't feel bad. I thought our kids did the best job they could.

You gotta understand, I've been with him for three years and I've seen a lot of things go down. The thing I do know is he's getting better and better each time he walks on the floor. And I don't know if we've seen the best of him yet. That's the scary part of this whole thing.

They were down, and there was some frustration. I made them realize that they can move forward and still obtain all the goals and objectives. I had to make them realize my situation. This is the best move for me.
