“I thought we fought the whole game. I thought we put ourselves in position to come away with a victory. We just made some bonehead plays down the stretch.”
On what UConn did well:
“I thought we kind of lost track a little bit and let them get a couple threes in a row…I think (Solo) Ball and (Alex) Karaban hit a couple threes back-to-back and got them on that stretch, on that run. I thought we had control of the game, just lack of urgency.”
On Elijah Fisher:
“I thought he did some good things for us. He’s a good player. I expect him to do the little things. I know he hasn’t been playing well lately, but I thought he came out with a good effort today.”
On defending UConn’s three-point shots:
“We just started switching for no reason. When you start switching against a team like this, they kind of exploit it a little bit. We started switching, started coming together, we started playing and then they started slipping in, coming over and coming off, and if you do that to a team like this, this is what’s gonna happen. It was just being solid the way we were for most of the game, they weren’t getting those shots off.”
On Alex Karaban:
“Yeah, it’s time for him to go, man. Nah, he’s a great player. Obviously, he’s a champion, did a lot of great things here at UConn, did a lot of great things for the league. He’s kind of an ambassador for the league, did a lot of great things for the league. I’ve got nothing but respect for him.”
On coming off the bye week:
“I thought we had a good enough game plan today to come in and try to get a win here, at a tough place to win at. We’re obviously down a couple bodies, but now you’ve gotta go on the road Tuesday, a quick turnaround on Tuesday, and try to get one at Xavier.”
