Carolina doesn't have a chance. They're a good team, but the Bears are a great defensive team and they're in Chicago.
I feel that we want to accomplish a lot. I think we got the toughest bracket with a lot of good teams on our side. Last year expectations were high, but I think they're just as high this year.
I said last year they were going to make the Final Four. This year, I know they're going to make it to the Elite Eight just by the way they play, the style of play they play. They're still a tough team. Hopefully, we'll see them again in the Big Ten tourney, but they're a good team.
I think every team comes out and just gives it their all and plays good team basketball, and we've got to be focused every game and come out with intensity.
We just didn't finish the job. They came out and played the good zone and it really affected us tonight.
There is just nobody talking about it, no buzz at all. The play on the court is better now than it ever has been. It's a pretty good product, but it's like nobody seems to care.
Doyle was talking a lot. He's a good dude, but he's out there talking. He came out and addressed me. . . . It's all fun. I love it when guys come out and trash-talk and have fun with the game.
Every game's a must-win game. It's going to be a good game. Two successful programs. Two great coaches. It's going to be fun.
I never said anything bad about him. I tell a lot of people he's one of the best coaches out there just because of the type of person he is. He's a good coach. Everything he's got this year he deserves.
That's cool, you should protect your house. It just feels good to get a road win.
He's a player, ... He already has the mentality. Fans are going to love him when they see him. We have good players. They bring a different kind of flow to the game, a different flavor.
They came out and did a good job. Teams come out and give us their best shot. They play hard against us.
They have some good players. They're a scary team and I don't think anyone would want to play them in the first round.
They're practically putting us in the bottom half of the Big Ten. I like it. It's always good to surprise people.
I don't think they are an easy team at all. They are a good team, well-coached, a disciplined ball club.
