Barbara Turner National Quotations

Obviously, that's something that has been in the back of our minds. There is no resentment toward Diana at all. She was an unbelievable pioneer in women's basketball. We also want to leave our legacy with a successful career. It wouldn't end any better way than us being in Boston at the Final Four and winning the national championship.

We needed it; we talked about it. Obviously we don't feel like we won a national championship, but to be able to beat a top-five team, finally, and to get over that hump is a really good feeling.

We lived up to our expectations for the most part. But we want to go out and let everyone know we did everything in our power to win a national championship.

There would be no better feeling than to be able to end this with a run at the national championship. I think it is in the back of our minds, and it is something that we are going to try to keep in our minds game in and game out.

They called her Ms. March early on in her career because she knew what she had to do in order to get our team to a national championship. I think that?s her attitude right now. She knows what she needs to do to help our team go out and win the Big East. She?s just been playing that way, diving on tables, diving on loose balls, getting after rebounds. She?s getting back to Will. You can tell, and it?s really helping our team out.

If she can have a good stretch the next four games going into the Big East tournament, it will get her some endurance and get her some conditioning, and it will help our team. We need her a lot. She?s our one true center; our one true big body. And every team around the country needs that one true center. Every team that?s successful and wins national championships has one so, obviously, we?re going to need her.
