Mike Davis Last Quotations

He is one of the best players in our league. You are not going to stop him, so you have to try to contain him. We have to play the defense we know we can play. Our defense over the last four games has improved, and that's the way we have to play.

Marshall is playing his best basketball the last two games. He has been really good for us and hit for double figures in both games. He will help from an offensive standpoint.

Last I heard, he's out for the season.

I think every coach, whether or not they're going to be there next year, anytime they have a group of guys they really love and appreciate, I feel more sadness for them than anyone because they fought hard. They really fought hard over the last month. I'm proud of them.

It doesn't make any sense. I've been under fire the last two weeks not only by fans but media, and we were one game out of first place and were ranked in the top 20 during that time. ... If we were five or six games behind, you'd probably have an argument.

We've been in a situation the last three weeks where if we lose, we are probably out of the tournament. That situation has really helped us. We showed a lot of character and kept going and going and going.

It's unbelievable. I love the way the fans are supporting us. ... I can't tell you the last time I smiled and had so much fun. I'm really enjoying this. This is the way it should be.

It's tough because D.J. was playing unbelievable the last week and a half, ... But Kline has been playing lights out.

They have an experienced team, so playing on the road will not bother them. They beat us here last time we played, so they will have confidence coming in here knowing they could win at Assembly Hall.

This team is a better basketball team because this team has bought into what we're trying to do. But I can't talk about last year.
