Great win! So proud of our kids. Jerami Grant gets hurt and we still find a way to win. Great team effort

CJ Fair added another big shot for his collection. Ice in his veins

I agree, 48 hours following a devastating loss, in a hostile environment, not an easy spot, they gutted one out tonight.

Good point. I thought we might come out a little more focused than usual due to what transpired on Saturday. And true to form we looked sharp early, and for 30+ minutes we were on solid footing.

But having to play a tough road game in front of a rabid sellout crowd, two days after a tough loss, with them having an entire week off to prepare for us probably makes how we played for the first 35 minutes or so even more impressive. Too bad we opened the door for them to get back in it, though. Would have been nice to win convincingly.

This was a conference road win against a team playing desparately to get into the big tourney.

He speaks from having head coaching experience now! Well 10 seconds anyway.
