Billy Gillispie Game Quotations

He is one of the better players in the game of college basketball. I'm not totally aware of his situation, but he is extremely hard to defend.

He has a great flair for the game and he has the ability to pass, shoot and force help.

I think everybody involved in that game Wednesday is probably pretty drained.

I've never been involved in a game where every person brought that amount of energy to the floor. I've never seen it where guys fought for so hard for 40 minutes on both sides. We just got lucky and made the last shot.

After such an emotional win against such a great team (UT) in such a great setting, it's almost impossible to bounce back and get your emotions in check. It was a major concern for us. I think everyone involved in that game was probably drained today.

Every basket's big in a game decided by four points, but those were very big baskets for a freshman.

It was a tough loss and a hard fought game. It was a very competitive game. I thought it was very fitting the way the game ended. We had so many close games all season long. We won a bunch of them in that fashion.

I am not a politician. I haven't been. I won't be. You don't have to be when you play in the Big 12. You finished fourth, you win your first game in the tournament, you play a team that's hopefully going to the Final Four.
