Jared Dudley Quotations

Playing a top ranked team like that with Dicky V and all that was great for us.

He can definitely shoot the ball. Look at his numbers. He hits 40 percent of his 3-pointers. When a guy gets going like he did, that's tough to defend.

We're just trying to get back to basics and get back to the style of play that we want to play. Obviously if you're on the outside looking in, it's looking like it's pretty bad. But we know what we have to do.

I didn't think the crowd affected our free-throw shooting or (that) the crowd affected the way we played. It was just North Carolina fans who love their team and wanted to come and support them. I wish one day we have that.

The biggest thing he showed me was his work ethic. He's done as much as he can in the weight room to get in better shape.

I don't listen to the crowd, but I'd probably boo if I was watching and we were down 20.

Our breakthrough game was Miami coming back the way that we did from the 14-0 run. This is a huge win coming down to North Carolina. I don't care how many people they lost from last year. To come down to this building in front of 20,000-plus is a huge win for us.

That doesn't get it done in the ACC.

People wanted to come out with a different mindset. We came out kind of flat and they definitely put it on us. We know we're just a better team and we played harder, and now at the end of the year, you want to get rewarded for all your hard work.

He's a rare player to come in the way he has and shoot the three ball without fear, and no one has to tell him to shoot the ball. He definitely has the confidence to shoot.
