If they've shown anything through 16 games, they are fighters and they have a toughness, which is the personification of Cincinnati basketball.
More Quotes from Andy Kennedy:
We knew Gerry McNamara was a heck of a player and if you give him an opportunity he's going to take advantage of it. He did that. We knew that 2-3 zone was big and effective, which it was. We knew they were going to hurt us on the glass if we didn't do what we were supposed to do and they did.Andy Kennedy
That's certainly still our goal. When it's all said and done our strength of schedule will be No. 2 in the country behind probably only Duke's. ... Honestly as I'm sitting here today I'm scrambling for answers. But if we can somehow, someway take care of business I think we will put ourselves in position to continue to fight through March.

I think collectively, much more so than individually, is where they beat you. Today, for example, they come off the bench with Keith Benjamin. He provided the spark that really started them. I thought Benjamin and the guys they brought off the bench gave them lifts and were factors throughout.

I didn't even want to talk about the relevance of being in the BIG EAST prior to us taking care of our non-league. I certainly think we've done some things to improve. I think that we've put ourselves in a position to compete in the BIG EAST.

We're in an NCAA tournament night, there's a lot of teams with local flavor, it's Friday night, it's St. Patrick's Day, students have to pay for tickets, we just finished finals and we're on spring break. I'm tremendously proud of our fans, it's what makes this basketball program one of the best in the country, because our people are tremendously loyal and passionate. Tonight they really came out and supported this team because this team has earned the right to be supported.

Right now, I'm sitting here struggling for answers. Our approach to the game at Louisville was most concerning to me. Louisville came in saying it was a do-or-die game, and they played like it. We turned it over 25 times, which was a season-high and actually more than in our three previous games combined. We shot it abysmally. We didn't defend the way we can. And we didn't match their intensity nor their focus on either end.
