Bob Punter Game Quotations

It's been pretty remarkable. We've had seven or eight games where all the guys who've suited up scored. We might only have nine in those games, but they're doing something.

We want to come out and play like it's 26-24 and we're playing a huge game down the road. We need to have 32 minutes of good, solid effort and focus.

It's obviously the first time our guys have been in a game in the fourth quarter. Did we react well? I don't know. We tried to hold the ball with a one-point lead and didn't do it.

We were getting away with things early in the season, but then teams scouted us and started taking them away. The thing is we didn't play our best game and we still won by (22).

(Martin's) been getting 28 or so the last five or six games on the average, but Hummel really showed up. That's the nice thing about having two D-I guys. If one guy doesn't quite get it all done the other kind of steps up.

For all the people that think we should lose a game so we can be better in the (state) tournament, this is for them. I don't believe that.

One team's (18-3) and one team's (16-3). Contrary to what people might think, other teams practice besides ours and enter the game with the will to win also.

Scott and Rob (Hummel) realize that if they want to play Big Ten basketball, they can't stay where they are. (Martin) already has a pretty well-proportioned body, but he still has a high school body as opposed to what you see in a Big 10 game from 6-8 players. He could put 20 more pounds on his chest, and he'll be impossible to handle. And I could be really smart.
