Alando Tucker Losing Quotations

They did a great job; everyone saw it. Just closing out the game, for them to step up and rebound and make big plays defensively, that's what we need. If we're going to be a great team, you need that, and those two guys did a heck of a job.

It was a burden a lot of players put on their shoulders that they had to do certain things. That's just hard. After losing those guys, we knew it would be tough given the numbers that we had playing against other teams that were as experienced or more experienced and had four or five seniors. We knew it was going to be a tough battle and we just wanted to stick it out.

We talked after the game, but that's enough talking. We just have to go out there and get it done now. We can't say anything else about it. Everybody's been making excuses about the losses that we have (after) losing Greg and Marcus, but with my teammates, I have a lot of confidence in them. I think they have confidence in themselves, too. We just have to start showing it now.

They're two freshmen, but they're out on the floor closing out the game.

They're two freshmen but they're out on the floor closing out a game. It just shows the confidence that he's got (in them).
