I followed him to Kansas City [AAU]. I listen to what they say and I make my own decisions. "But we just had a great practice".

"I want to say it because if that's your goal for me, I promise you my goals are bigger than your goals for me". "We weaseled our way down and we had a lot of help to get down here".

"But it's going to mark your life", Bennett said. "Tomorrow we're going to have another great practice, watch film". They'll make the championship game by the transitive property: If they beat the best team in the country, they can beat a No. 3 seed.

Coaches and players were still reeling from the stunning defeat and Bennett recognized they all had to be there for one another to heal and to build for the future.

Junior center Austin Wiley said he enjoys Pearl's style of coaching. But, he said, "you can't look back".

Of the teams in the Final Four, Texas Tech and Auburn are first-timers. "And thankfulness. We use those for our team specifically", Bennett explained.
