Basket Quotations | Page 3

We feed off of each other because we both have the ability to go away from the basket and go inside.

We're extremely disappointed that our institution has been cast in a negative light as a result of our men's basketball scheduling practices the past three years. I honestly believe that Iowa State University did not knowingly do anything wrong as it relates to scheduling these non-conference games.

We're excited. We bring in another athlete, a 7-foot athlete, 24 years old who runs and jumps and does a lot of the things that we want here. I think he'll fit in extremely well.

We're pleased - we're pleased for our school, pleased for our fans and our alums. I'm really pleased for our players. Thinking anything beyond that, it's a game for us right now. ... We have a game coming up here on Saturday (against Wisconsin). We always know a follow-up of an emotional win or loss is always critical. We're happy about the win tonight, but we certainly know there's a lot of basketball to be played.

We're fighting for a playoff spot. Coach Sloan says that playoff basketball is crunch time. We need to run a play, execute and get a good shot. It's frustrating to fight the whole game, have a lead and then all of a sudden, we stop doing what we did to get there.

The other thing that helps a great deal in schools is if they have a sex-ed teacher who comes into the school. She's not the gym teacher, who teaches swimming and basketball and field hockey. I'd love it if it was a male-and-female team, but that seldom happens.

The possibility is there, but I have a hard time thinking they'll do it in basketball.

The possibilities are really limitless. The key will be finding the betting opportunities that will suit the player, whether he?s watching hockey, basketball or golf.

The perception is that teams in the Southern Section play better basketball. We'd like to prove them wrong.

The point guard is the key part in the whole process of your team. Everything kind of runs through the point guard. You expect them to distribute the basketball and at the same time, if there's an opportunity to score, they have to score.
