We're trying to just continue to build off the last two games. It's equally challenging to bring a team back from a victory, an important victory, as it is from a defeat.

We need everyone to be on board. Adrian averages what he averages 9.9 before Friday and we need that every night and more. Jason Cain needs to give us a double-double and Mo Diane needs to do more.

I'm sure over the next few days, like any coach whose season comes to an end, you get reflective. We were able to do some things, but at the same point in time you never want your season to come to an end. I'm disappointed that it is, but obviously I think we grew and we learned a lot. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
You have to credit him for having the gumption to make a shot like that. They Virginia Tech were doing a really good job at hedging defensively.

It's not something I will ever bring into our conversation in the gym until it's absolutely necessary. I don't think it really has a place. What has helped make us moderately successful until this point has been our focus. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
There are key moments in the first four of five minutes of a game where you can tell a little about the tone of the game.

For the third game in a row I thought we played with some mental focus and toughness. There were certain spots in the game when the ebb and flow could have gone one way or another, and we responded well. For example, in the second half we rebounded much better than we did earlier on. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
Like I've said 100 times, it's never pleasing to lose. We didn't do the things we needed to win tonight. We have poor execution. Back door cuts, post ups, it was just a lack of execution. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
Because we're new to this whole thing and relatively inexperienced in dealing with everything that comes in front of us, it's equally as challenging to bring a team back from a victory and an important victory as it is from defeat. So we've got to continue to challenge our guys in that way to remain focused and understand the job at hand. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
You can't be all things to all people. I'm sure if Herb had his way, he'd like to have more rebounds. But when you spread the court like that, and you have more perimeter players, you do give up something. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

I thought it was huge. One, it allowed us to give Sean a break from playing point and trying to score. Two, he got us some fast break points. And he stepped up and got fouled and made some big free throws. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
You can throw all the good things or all the bad things that you've done this season out the window. Now it's possession to possession. If you win the game, it's because you're better that day. You don't have to be better for a month or better for a week. You have to be better for that day, and we'll get some rest and try to be the team that's better tomorrow. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
By coming back this, he's really made it worth while and we all need to sit back and admire because it really won't happen for a long time after this. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

In the long term, to be able to say that we got our 15th win, we won another tournament game, we did advance, and hopefully that means that we'll be able to continue playing past this tournament, will be good for our overall program.

At our core is where we work extremely hard at it and have certain principles that we don't stray from, like staying in front of your man. We have to almost be a chameleon at times and change on the fly. Sometimes you have your fastball working and other times your curveball has to work for you. We've been fortunate enough that some of our adjustments have worked. We've caught a good rhythm with it and hopefully we can continue to do that. - Dave Leitao Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
