Randy Foye Quotations

We're ready, everyone's ready. Everyone can't wait. We're ready to go.

We know he's going to alter a lot of shots.

Maybe he can do my laundry or go to Domino's late at night.

I was shocked. I thought it was a celebration of new teams coming in.

If we're going to make this program go, it had to start with us. We took it upon ourselves that we've got to do this.

Having Curtis on our mind during the North Carolina game, it took a toll on us. It might not have shown, but it took a toll on everyone from the coaches to the players. Coming into this year, we're just a year older and much more mature and we know that we have a job to do out there.

He's a big part of what we do. If he's out for the year, we just have to come together as a team. We still have a job to do.

He?s driving. I?m sleeping on the way back.

I think it shows you how far we've come. We've been through a lot and we've worked hard to get to this point. It's a reward for all the hard work we've put in.

It hurts to know that we are not going to be able to play next week in the Final Four.

I think that we accomplished a lot in our four-year career here. At the beginning it was a struggle, but these last two years for the senior class and the junior class, (what) they went through with us has been great.

I think that we accomplished a lot in our four-year career here.

I was just shooting the ball perfectly at the time. The '85 team had a lot to do with it -- what we went out there and did.

I was just happy it was nothing serious.

It feels good. Just look (around at all the people in the Pavilion), it feels good.

I stole it. He grabbed me. Just ask him.

That's the type of games that we like. I know no one believes us... but we like to grind games out.

I was ready to get over it after the game.

We still have to go out there and play the game. The other team is hungry, just like we are hungry. It doesn't matter once you get out there on the court. If you are a one seed or a 16th seed, once you get into the tournament.

You look at the great teams and all the great teams went 30-1, 30-2. They took a loss. You've got to learn when you lose in the beginning, you just have to learn from it. You can never let it be a setback. If it's a setback, you can lose five, six games in a row.

Walking into the stadium of 80,000 people was amazing. I was nervous at first, but then I started to get into it, waving at people and putting up the peace sign.

This year, we're taking a different approach. Basically I think that we are the hunted and they're coming after us.

We've got to get it together. We can't wait for them to roll over and die.

To me, if you're No. 1 it's like having a target on your back. Everybody wants to beat you. Everybody's going at your knees, going to the floor, diving for loose balls.

We just knew what we had to do to win.

We don't really talk about getting to the Final Four. Our goal is not the Final Four. We're just trying to be the best team as possible.

You have to be aware of him when you go to the basket. He?s a big guy. He?s kind of like (Roy) Hibbert at Georgetown. He?s long and blocks a lot of shots.

You have to go out there and give a great effort because if you don't, you're on a losing streak.

When all that stuff happened, no one turned on each other. Everyone stayed together. Sometimes things in life are tough and you have to be a man and face it.

Every shot was contested. Give Florida credit. They're a great team.

Florida ? they're just great. They are great all around.

Florida did a great job finding our shooters, defending the three-point line. Every time we took a shot, they made sure it was a contested shot.

Every time we took a shot, it was a contested shot. They made sure every shot we took was not an easy one.

These are the type of games we like. I know no one believes us but ... we like to battle it out and just grind it to the end.

The rivalry's great for the fans and most of the alumni, but we're just out there to take care of business. We never try to get too mixed up into the rivalry because if you get too much into it, that could probably lead into a fight or something on the court. That's something neither team wants.

Sometimes the rim looks like an ocean, ... My teammates were finding me in the right spots and I was talking the right shots.

Sometimes I do wonder why all of this happened, but it must happen for a reason. We'll adjust and stay together. We'll just keep playing hard out there.

Some teams play man, some teams play zone, so in practice we just go with everything to be ready for whatever defense we're going to play that night,

Anything can happen in a Big Five game. Everybody is tough.

They don't know how much our other guys can do, but during the game, when they do it, it's a shock to them. We just try to keep the other team on the edge.

It means a lot to us. I know it means a lot to me. I wanted to add something to our resume, and that's what this means. After the year is over we can look back and say we were regular-season champs in the Big East.

The No. 1 team is out. It could easily happen to us.

Everyone is starting to believe we can win with four guards. Win big games with four guards.

They just see the four guards running up and down fast and scoring.

That's a play we run all the time. We have plays for 7 seconds left and plays for 4 seconds left. We just ran the play, and they left Dante wide open.

I know where we were at two years ago, three years ago. We were in the NIT. To come from the NIT and be a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament shows tremendous respect.

I knew if we lost this game, it was going to be my last game. I wanted to keep playing. I just wanted to keep playing.

I love playing in Philadelphia. It's great to be here.

I know if we lose, everyone's going to be saying this team's no good, the four-guard offense don't work.

His impact to the game is he brings, like, a ton of energy. He is always running the floor, always on the glass - offensive glass and defensive glass. He is the leader.

He's tough, tough as nails. He's willing to take the ball in against the big men. He's willing to rebound against 6-11 guys.

You can't have concern, you can't panic. We're 11-2. It's not like we're under .500. We still have a lot of games to play and a lot of room for improvement.
