It's pretty obvious the national media needs to take a better look at what we have to offer.
More Quotes from Doug Elgin:
We've really broken the ice on getting national attention. I don't think they'll forget about this year like they've done in the past with Sweet 16 participant Missouri State in 1999 and Southern Illinois in 2002. The programs that have success this year are linked together by a common thread.Doug Elgin
The magnitude of the weekend hasn't sunk in. It's going to take some time to absorb all this. I think it's pretty clear that parity is here, much more parity than people realize or believe. I think what's happening is a sign of things to come. You're going to see a Colonial or a Missouri Valley team one step away from the Final Four.

We're under siege and I don't get it. We deserved every bid. We earned them. We deserved six bids and we should have had five, because I don't understand how they can look at Missouri State and not put them in.

I think the entire country was holding its collective breath when she got hurt. I've never experienced that type of total silence there. It scared the daylights out of all of us.

Nationally, I think you're starting to see an emergence of programs that may not be at the tip of the tongue of the media but are starting to be viewed very differently.

We haven't had a lot of marquee wins since Southern Illinois went to the Sweet 16 in 2002. But we have played well against teams that advanced deep into the tournament.
