Andre McGee Quotations

I think it did have to be this way, so he could get the ending he deserved.

Last year all the guys supported us; we wanted to do the same thing. Just show some love for our teammates.

We were just walking the ball up the floor and didn't even realize it. Some of the teams we play, they get you into that tempo, and we were just going right along with it.

That kind of did take some pressure off. We were worried about not making the conference tournament and I think we were getting discouraged about the way the season was going. Now Connecticut isn't a must-win for us and we can just go play.

I think our chances (in the Big East Tournament) are real good. We're ready to play anybody, regardless of who it is. It's that time of year. It's March. Everybody has to step it up a few notches, coaches, players ... this is no longer the regular season any more. Now it's either win or go home.

I don't know how it went in. From its trajectory, I was sure it was going to hit the front of the rim and bounce back.
