Billy Donovan Postgame Quotes
1/16/2008 | Men's Basketball
On the game:
"We got off to a great start by knocking down some big three's, but we got three-happy' and Ole Miss was able to get back in the game and take control. The three-point line was fool's gold for us after the fast start. We shot 28 percent from the three-point line and missed nine free throws and still only lost by two. I think it's something that we can build on."
On the end of the game:
"Ole Miss missed some free throws down the stretch, and we were able to stay in it. Our guys battled and fought until the end."
On Ole Miss:
"Ole Miss is one of the better rebounding teams in the SEC. We had a difficult time trying to contain Dwayne Curtis in the post. Ole Miss' size and strength worked to their advantage."
On Trevor Gaskins:
"I thought Trevor Gaskins was the difference in the game. Eniel Polynice is a streaky shooter, and Chris Warren ran the point well, but I thought Gaskins stepped up big for them. He banged home some really big three's for Ole Miss that kept them in the lead."
