Brandon Rush Quotations

They were calling me up until a week or so before I decided to go to Kansas. I even took an unofficial visit there.

They were really overemphasizing jumping on my right hand. They were trying to force me to go left. Kentucky tried it, but I was still able to get around it. I can go both ways, but I like going to my right hand. My left is a little weak.

Julian is always playing around... non-stop even when everyone else is serious. He's happy over everything. At first, I was wondering about him, but I like that. He's a cool guy.

They are taking it real tough. Everybody is mad. Jeremy Case is real mad. (Christian) Moody ... the seniors are real devastated about the loss.

We all came in being this and that. But we don't have egos. We want to be a team. We knew we had to be something special for this team to do something, but we knew we had to do it together. I think we've done that.

It's going to be the biggest game of the year in the conference, playing against top-level talent on national television.

Nah, I hate it. I was still kind of sleeping in the first half. I woke up, though, when they broke into our lead in the first half.

I've grown up a lot. That's from being on my own. But I've been away from home too long.

I thought the game was about done. We had big doubts about coming back. Then the shots started falling, and we picked it up on defense.

I underestimated them a little bit, seeing how they lost to Nebraska. But that won't happen again. We won't underestimate anybody any more.
