Jay Wright Surprise Quotations

He's good. We actually recruited him. We really liked him. ... You know what he's going to do. He's just going to pound you. He's going to go to the glass every time. He's going to be very physical. He's a good player. He might surprise some people, but he doesn't surprise us because we recruited him.

He?s good, but we knew that already because we recruited him. He?s a four or five for a Connecticut team, so he?s going to be a guy who pounds you, who?s very physical. He?s not a surprise to us.

I think it changed the game. I think he was way ahead of his time. He caught the country by surprise the year he went to the Final Four. I think even after years he had all that success going to the Final Four, I think that it still took all of us a long time to catch up.

I didn't think someone would do it this year because of the depth of the conference, because of how much every game is going to take out of you. This is real impressive for both teams. It doesn't surprise me, any of the upsets, because we knew we could get beat any night.
