Jim Calhoun Thank Quotations

We drew the entire country in to watch history being made and history wasn't made. Thank God because of the performance of these kids.

You had a No. 1 seed in peril. Thank God history wasn't made.

Thank god we have him. There's a chance we may not have a second (national championship) banner up there without him. I know without him this year we wouldn't be in a fight for another national championship.

Denham is playing the best basketball of his life. This is the guy we had while winning the Maui Invitational. Denham had some roadblocks but thank God he stayed with it all season. But that's the story of this season. It's all about who can persevere.

Coming off a Villanova game where he played 13 minutes and didn't score a point, I started him the next game to tell him we've got to get him back. For us to win, we've got to get him back. ... Thank God we got them back.

(Notre Dame) had every right to win that game just as much as we did. We had to will our way back in. Thank God it was here at the Civic Center. I'm not sure we could win that game on the road.

Hilton we lost for about two weeks. He got to the Big East tournament, was the defensive player of the year and he had a little letdown. I don't know what it was. He's such an emotional kid. But we've got him back and thank God we got him back tonight.
