Frank Haith Player Quotations

He had one of those nights. He's a fabulous player and showed it tonight.

His two years here he was as exciting a player as I've been around. He's living a dream right now.

He's playing at an unbelievable level. He's taken a lot of stuff about not playing big in big games, but he's our most consistent player this season. He's in a tremendous flow right now.

Guillermo felt that this was the best time for him to enter the draft and I support that decision. In the two seasons I've been at Miami, he has been as exciting a player as I've been around.

I thought our kids competed and we played very hard. J.J. is a phenomenal player. He wasn't just great tonight, he has been great all year. I think he is the best player in college basketball and he showed it tonight.

Lawrence (Gilbert) is a multi-talented player who can do a lot of things on the basketball court. He can score, rebound, pass and defend. He has excellent court vision for a player his size and makes everyone around him better. He will be a tremendous addition to our program.

My thing with Duke is they are a high percentage team, so I'm real pleased with the fact that we held them to 41 percent shooting. But J.J. is a great player and when the game is on the line your players have to make plays. He knew he was going to try to make a play and he did.
