Jerry Wainwright Win Quotations

I won't win anywhere close to the number of games coach Ray Meyer won. But I hope that when it's all said and done that people will say that I was a pretty nice guy, the way they'll always be able to say about him.

I was told the one was the best win for DePaul in 10 years and the other was the worst loss in DePaul history. It was like the day before I got married and the day after I got married.

Both of these teams are trying to be one of the 12 that go to the Big East Tournament. That is a different kind of pressure than most teams in any league in this country face. ... Twelve teams are going. There is nothing easy on our schedule, and you have to win home games.

It's like you're dealing with two sets of standings. You look at who's winning the league, but you're looking far more at the bottom and seeing where that line is (for the Big East Tournament). It's something we talk about every day.

The game was dictated at the free-throw line. You can't miss 11 and win at this level.

There are some incredible swings this season. More so than I've ever seen.

You're basically looking at two sets of standings. You're looking at who's winning our league, but you're looking far more at the bottom of the league. It's something we talk about every day.

Every league game seems like a conference tournament game to me. You're looking at two sets of standings: who's winning and who's at the bottom. It's a tough, tough thing on coaches. That's why I rent (a house) and I didn't buy.
