We didn't execute as well in the last three minutes. We were shooting almost 50 against a good team, we just couldn't get it done down the stretch.

I'm disappointed that right now, we can't seem to find the basket with anything. I'm sure we've lost some confidence we're going to have to work through it.

We didn't get beat by some chopped-liver team. I mean, don't kid yourself They're going to win a lot of games -- a lot of games.

I said that there could be eight teams vie for the championship. I think scheduling (the Big Ten doesn't play a round robin, so some teams play others just once) is gonna play a part in everything. I still think our conference could fight to be the strongest in the country. When you look top to bottom at the conference race this year, four losses could win it, maybe more.

It was a total mistake on both parties. Our student wasn't in the right position, and he wasn't under the right mentality. And Amadou, who's a good kid, probably made a mistake pushing him. You want your fans to be crazy, but I really think this was a mistake.

We have to learn how to play with the lead, and the Iowa game was a case in point where we didn't play with the lead. (The players) came into our huddle, we were up 15-4, and they really believed (Iowa) was tired. It was good 'Let's get 'em now coach, let's do this, let's do that.' But I think they took that to another level and they started taking shots too early.
