Behind Quotes
If you're making the choice between Kleenex and Puffs, you can debate which one has more aloe in it. But when you're a no-name brand, it's hard to get people to look at you. Right now, people don't know Gifford Miller's name - and if they know his name, they don't necessarily know what's behind it.

Effort Quotes

Best Quotes
I don't think (the selection committee) looked at this season as a shock. I think they looked at from the standpoint that Villanova has done this before. They had a great year.

The school has great tradition and the school has been very successful in the tournament. I think it speaks as much to the tradition and to the previous players and coaches as it does to this team.
