Quote from Calipari

First, I just wanted to say I feel fortunate that the Tigers got the win last night. This was definitely the best match-up in the 1st round of the tourney.

Tiger fans had great respect for the Panthers coming into the game. I'm just glad y'all had a poor shooting night. It's a different game if you shoot 35% instead of 22%. And I know your squad will up their FG% over the next few games.

I know someone posted a quote from Cal in another thread but here's the complete quote:

"Obviously it is not going to be this easy all the time. We give up 23 points to Joah Tucker and he can really play. I just want you to know, this team that you saw, by the end of the season, is going to have 24 or 25 wins. They were a Sweet 16 team last year. They are feeling out a new coach, but they are still going to be outstanding. So, this is a heck of a win for us."

Good luck the rest of the way and maybe we'll meet up again in March!
