Author: Bill Self
«How can we base the season on one game when you're starting three freshmen and two sophomores? To me, that's something that we can't allow to happen. I'll encourage the guys, and I'll get on them. I'll be the same way I've always been.»

One big reason why the freshmen have done better here and done so well in the league is because the seniors have accepted their roles and haven't fought it. If they had fought it, our chemistry wouldn't be near as good as it is.»
Author: Bill Self
«We probably played as good a defense the first 15 minutes as we've played all year. I thought our defense was great. We had a comfortable lead, but we should have scored eight or 10 more points.»
Author: Bill Self
«That was a great victory by (A&M). It gives us a chance.»
