Kevin Bookout Quotations

High school players think they work hard, but until you go to college, then you really see how hard you really have to work.

The Oklahoma basketball program is built on playing hard and tough and competing on every possession. For us to come out here and lose in the first round, that doesn't bode well. We're supposed to win these games.

That's nuts. I don't think I've ever played in three games back-to-back-to-back where it's been one point like this. I don't know. It's weird.

I was so confident (Wednesday). I've worked on that hook shot and I feel I can make it from anywhere on the court.

I just thought we were more aggressive tonight. We just kept attacking and attacking.
