On UCLA:
"I have not seen UCLA. Of course they're on the west coast. I haven't seen them play, not one time, but of course I know Mick Cronin. Man, great coach. You know, he's done well wherever he's been. He did a great job at Cincinnati. He's doing a great job at UCLA, so I have a lot of respect for him and his programs because I know how he coaches, but I haven't had a chance to see them, but I know they're well coached and they're talented."
On what can be expected from a team coached by Mick Cronin:
"Defensively, just toughness and ability to defend and rebound, I think have been hallmarks of what he's done at Cincinnati, and I'm sure he's doing something similar at UCLA. I haven't seen them out there, of course, but I don't think he would trade that, you know, or change anything because he's been very successful at what he's done."
