Jeff Blair Quotations

Only with this team. These guys are unbelievable. We've got such a whole team here that it makes our job that much easier.

It didn't take me that long to adjust to it because I was more of a defensive player in high school. I scored, but I think my defense helped me when I made the transition.

I've averaged more here than I did in high school because they ask me to do more. I still score, but not as much as I did in the beginning because they don't need me to.

Sometimes they would put me on the post and play me at guard to bring the ball up. I played a lot of the post. They used me down there a lot to bang around.

After high school, I always said I wanted to play somewhere.

It was really exciting. But I really only got about three shots, maybe. ... We boxed out, and it looked exciting but they were really there for me.

If not, I'll go and get my degree.

I figured we would start off slow because we had so many freshmen. We're starting to jell right now, but it's a little late. We've been in every game, but then you can see where the inexperience part comes in. It has been a struggle, but it has been fun.
