UNC-BYU: Postgame Quotes & Audio

Posted Nov 25, 2007

"Last night we shot 70 percent, and tonight it was ugly as all-get-out. But I like that, too, because you’ve got to be able to win when it gets down to the tough times when you cannot shoot the ball in the hole. I told my team one time that I had a team in ’97 that we shot 29 percent on the road and won, because we held the other team to 22 percent. The toughness is what you’ve got to have."
