Coming off a Villanova game where he played 13 minutes and didn't score a point, I started him the next game to tell him we've got to get him back. For us to win, we've got to get him back. ... Thank God we got them back.

We were 7-for-18 from the foul line. Coming down the stretch, a couple of those foul shots would have made it a one possession game and it would have been a lot more interesting.

There were no barbs coming from this program. Miserable people write things when they don't have anything else to do. I said something in jest. I guess I shouldn't have.

I give him some credit for coming in, passing the ball, not trying to score right way, rebounding. He was doing good things.

We're not exactly coming off a disaster, we are 27-3. We have to treat this like a weekend tournament because it is for us.

I never would have expected that coming into the game.
