We have positive places around this community. One of them is Townsend Center.

No day goes by without planning my future. I really try not to think about it (NBA), but that is one of my goals. That's why I'm here.

One of the things they love to do is lull you to sleep on the weak side and go off of screens. I was always trying to stay focused on Falls and not let him get his feet set 'cause I know a lot of shooters like to be comfortable in their shots.

Obviously, it's our last home game, but we feel like we've got a long season left to go.

I love coming home, especially with a victory.

I think it's very important, just because we play the majority of the minutes at the guard position. So we had to do a lot of maturing, things like that. But after that first game, we never felt like freshmen again.

We had a lot of doubters at the beginning of the season, but none of them were in our locker room. I truly believed we could do this as freshmen from day one.

We gotta have our big guys step up to the challenge.

Every game is big, but if you're on national TV, you might play a little harder.

I spend 85 percent of my day right here (McGuire Center). I don't get back to my room until 10:30 or 11.

I've been looking forward to this game for a long time. Being from Indiana and growing up and watching Indiana basketball with all the great colleges in the state, I loved it.

The most important aspect of college basketball has been being a student of the game more than anything. You no longer can go out there and just beat people on your talent. You have to know the game.

Coach has faith in me. I knew he was a great coach. No one has such trust in his players.

That showed us and everyone else we really weren't a fluke.

They had to do what they had to do. I couldn't have chosen a better situation than what I'm in right now. I'm where I'm supposed to be.

The atmosphere was great. I remember this same atmosphere when I came here for a visit. I loved coming home and getting a victory.

He pushed me every day. It hasn't stopped. He's the reason I'm here right now.
