I told you all at the beginning of the week that we had a long road ahead of us. I really meant that. It wasn't going to be easy to get to the (NCAA) tournament with everything we were going through. We've got so much heart we never gave up. It paid off for us in the right way.
More Quotes from Stanley Burrell:
Exciting. We've got so much firepower coming back. Adding a couple new guys, especially Drew (Lavender). We can't wait to get him here. It's going to make things a whole lot easier for everybody.Stanley Burrell
Our whole thing was this is going to be a two-game tournament so we can get ourselves going again. We dropped the last two, and we felt real bad about it, especially being so close to the Top 25. Now, we got Dayton coming in here, GW coming in here. Both of them are real good teams. We didn't want to just get back on track with some mediocre teams. We have to get on track with a really good squad.

I told him to stop worrying so much about being a jump-shooter and to be a slasher. Use mid-range and get to the rim. He does a great job of getting to the basket. He does a good job of getting to the rim and finishing with the big guys.

They've got a great player in Adam Morrison. Even though he has no class whatsoever. He made big plays for them down the stretch. But he has no class whatsoever. He's such a great player, you would think he'd have some class and be the great player that he is. The things he was saying to (Justin) Cage and me were just ridiculous.

I've been waiting for Coach to give me an opportunity (to play point guard). But if Dedrick is playing like that, we don't need to go to anybody else anymore. Johnny (Wolf) comes in and gives him some minutes when he gets tired, but when he's playing like this, we don't need anybody else.

Adam and Eve are like imaginary numbers, like the square root of minus one... If you include it in your equation, you can calculate all manners of things, which cannot be imagined without it.
