HEAD COACH JOHNNY JONES QUOTES
“This was a huge win for our team and our program. This is a special team. Our guys once again brought the way they practice to the game. They played with a great deal of emotion, but controlled emotion. We beat a very good team who is picked to finish right in the thick of things in the Big 12,”
“We have guys who are good decision makers on the court. The way they played speaks volumes for the way this team is maturing,”
On the Crowd
“This was a great atmosphere. This was one of the more exciting nights since we have been here. Our students were loud and they energized us tonight. Our players fed off of their emotion and enthusiasm. Not only the students, the entire crowd got us going and we needed that against a quality opponent like Oklahoma State.
On Keith Wooden
“He played very well in the post and even stepped out and made some baseline jumpers for us tonight. He got into a rhythm and shot 12 of 14 from the field. We were able to spread the floor and allow him work the post. He created match-up problems all night. He played tonight the way he played near the end of the season last year,”
On Josh White
“He defended well for us. He started the game guarding a guy 6-5 and was still able to control the game offensively,”
