Billy Gillispie Against Quotations

Joe did a really good job. He's learning to make adjustments against people and he's become a little bit more aware of how some people are playing him.

I think we were already in. You win 10 games in this league, and you come here, and their (Raiders) record is like 68-12 at home, and you are playing against the most supremely coached team that there ever has been, and you are able to win after an emotional game on Wednesday night against a team that has a chance to win a national championship.

We really needed that. We've had a lot of things go against us.

It's a great win for us against one of the most well-respected, winning basketball programs in the history of the game.

After such an emotional win against such a great team (UT) in such a great setting, it's almost impossible to bounce back and get your emotions in check. It was a major concern for us. I think everyone involved in that game was probably drained today.

I know for a fact we haven't played better than this in two years than we did today against a real, real, real good team. Some days we have played better defense, some days we have played better offense, but today was one of those magical days where everything just seemed to go right for us.
