I wish my job was that easy. The biggest quality of the Texas team is their balance, not just a few players.
We went to Duke this year as decided underdogs. Our job is to prepare our guys; we watched a number of segments of film.
It's weighing on a lot of peoples' minds up at Cornell. I know coach Donahue is struggling with it, but I think he's doing a good job of trying to go on.
He's just a good basketball player, and the opportunity presented itself and he's done a good job with his opportunity. All you want from your young guys when they're given that chance is to play their very best. It looks like he's really stepped his game up.
All I could think of was, I can't believe he's leaving this place. And I remember thinking that whoever takes this job and follows him has to be a little crazy.
It was critical for us. I thought our guys did a good job early on, but you know they are going to make a run.
For the most part, I was very proud of our effort. Before the game, we talked a little bit about having tremendous respect for this program, but we couldn't let that become a fear factor. I thought our guys did a pretty good job of understanding that concept.
