Dean Keener Quotations

He's as good a coach as they could have selected. Selfishly, I'm glad to see him leave the league.

That was the game. . The game was really decided from about the 5:50 mark until the end of the first half. That was the defining moment.

He's really been a bright spot. He's one of the young guys that we will be a big part of our rebuilding process.

Maybe the stars are aligned. You need a little bit of luck along the way. Nobody?s deserving of anything, but I certainly think we?re due some luck our way, whether it?s in terms of staying healthy, staying out of trouble, or of making shots like that.

We were ecstatic when he signed (his letter of intent).

He made three or four or five 15-, 16-footers. I was uncertain if he could make that consistently. ... He's one of the premier post players in the ACC.

Daniel's going to be successful in whatever he does, because he works hard and he's very mature in how he acts and does things. I'm obviously a huge Daniel Freeman fan.

My hat?s off to them. They were very, very good. We had something to do with it, but credit them, they played like a tournament team tonight.

When you're down, it's a difficult thing to change that culture. I don't think you can blame any particular person or thing.

Those certainly were two really good games. And some things have changed for them, but they still have a really talented team.
