Jim Boeheim Open Quotations

Our zone, we just weren't active enough. Our defense was terrible. Any of the games we've lost, our defense has struggled. They got open shots, and that's something we've got to do a better job on.

We gave them four wide open shots at the beginning of the game. You can't do that against a quality team like Villanova.

We all know that it's more open now than it's ever been.

Defensively, we did a good job, as well as you could expect at this stage of the year. We really helped each other. Our inside guys did a nice job. We really didn't give them too many open looks. We were very good.

Gerry was able to get in the lane and the big guys reacted better, I think, than they have. They got open a little bit better.

You can't let him get loose. He showed what he can do when it gets open by hitting those two threes in the second half. For the most part, we did a good job of not letting him get set.

You can't let him get open. When he got open he made two (three-pointers). I thought we did a good job of finding him and not letting him get set.
