Damon Bailey Quotations

I'm sure coach Shannon is not happy with the outcome, but his kids hung in there.

That's the reason I'm coaching. It's definitely a program I care a lot about and one that I want to see back at the top or back where it used to be.

We played like we wanted to win. We need to have that energy all the time.

There's no doubt in my mind I understand basketball as well as anybody. My assistants and I have a good relationship and we talk every night, but from day one I've had the final say.

This is a very big win for us. I hope it's a big confidence booster.

I don't think the team we opened the season with would have been able to come back and hang on like we did tonight. We're definitely getting better.

These kids don't have the same drive and determination that I did.
