Mike Carey Hit Quotations

I felt at times we were too impatient at times offensively. We refused to reverse the ball and work for easy shots. They packed it in. They made us shoot from the perimeter and we just didn't hit them.

You've got to shoot it. You have to live and die by your shooters. They packed it in and made us shoot from the perimeter. We just didn't hit our shots.

Some balls bounced our way. Let's face it, Rutgers is a great team. They won 16 league games in a row. If we played them 10 times, they would win nine. I think they overlooked us a little bit thinking about playing Connecticut in the final. But Rutgers won't be in the final. I don't know if this all has hit me yet.

We wanted to score a little bit more than we did. We held them to 50, stayed on the boards, got some offensive rebounds. We did what we felt needed to be done. We just didn't hit our shots.

My team didn't quit, after not playing well in the first half. We got key rebounds, hit foul shots and were able to finish.
