Press Conference Quotes
Rather than take notes in Microsoft Word, I'll blog (the end of) Kentucky's press conference after the win over UAB.
Q: Coach, what happened to Joe in the first three or four minutes?
Tubby Smith: "He got poked in the eye. His vision was blurred. But he came back in the game and made some big plays. He's fine."
Q: Tubby, you had some big rebounds...
A: "They were up on us six to one early in the game. Our guys made a conscious effort to go to the boards. And when you're missing that many shots, there are a lot of rebounds to be had."
Q: Your thoughts on facing Connecticut? Will your team be a little looser than if you were a 1 seed?
A: "They're awesome. Great talent. Rudy Gay and Marcus Williams. They've got some talented people and they've got depth. Scoring. Size. It would take a great effort on our part to compete with them. But I thought we came in very loose tonight. I think our guys feel that they deserve to be here and that we can play with any team and we've been able to survive a tough game tonight just like UConn did and hopefully that will give us some more confidence."
