Dave Pugliese Quotations

My hat goes off to him. He was playing in his fourth game in five days yet showed no signs of it.

I got into the guys a little bit at halftime. We came back nicely in the second half. The defense was great and I thought we did an admirable job all the way around.

This was a good win for us. I thought we did a really good job on the glass, and we defended well.

We'll come out hard and let the chips fall where they may. There is no quit in our guys.

We play difficult teams every game, all year long. We made it by sticking to our motto. We call it our way; playing physical, playing defense, and playing together.

Quite frankly, we want the kids to be in unbelievable shape. My assistant pretty much grinds them right into the ground.

They refuse to lose. We've gone to overtime three times and had a number of other close games. We're battle-tested.

Conditioning is what we pride ourselves on. That is number one for us. So when it's late in the fourth quarter, we're fresh and the other team is tired.

It's not a pretty way to play. And I'm sure it's not very fun for the guys. But you know what, winning is fun.
