"Well, losing is no fun and our guys are giving their maximum effort... we just had some stretches there where we are not scoring the ball and just not putting the ball in the basket. Like I said, we gotta get to 70. Look, I understand losing stinks, losing is no fun, our results to this point are not acceptable, I sure don't find them acceptable, and I know our fans don't either so, like I said last time, the only way we are going to win the crowd back is to start winning games.” - Josh Pastner on his team’s 1-8 start to their conference play.

"What a hard game. Both teams defended like crazy and just competed. We both know each other so well. There's a ton of respect between the two programs for how you do things, and their kids play really hard. I thought our kids played incredibly hard. It's not easy to defend like that sometimes when you're not scoring. You don't get any juice off your offense to sustain that kind of defense. It takes a lot of will, and our guys had that today.” - Brad Brownell after his team’s win against VA Tech in their last game.
