We've had an excellent two days of practice and I think our team is in about as good a frame of mind as it has been in a long time. I think the pressure of the regular season took its toll on us and now that's over. Everybody starts fresh and anew.
More Quotes from Dave Odom:
We needed a shakeup we needed a change we needed a different slant. I thought our team had a chance to win the game. I really did.Dave Odom
I think it's a good rule. I do think you might find three (or) four teams (with losing records in the NIT). I don't think that's bad. I think it would be bad if you had an abnormal number, whatever that is, seven or eight. I don't think that would be right.

Primarily, the result represents what was best for college basketball at this time. It ensures we will continue to have an undisputed national champion every year, and at same time be able to preserve the tradition and heritage of the storied NIT.

Will this test our motivation Oh, yeah. The key in my opinion is what happens between now and (the end of practice at) 6 o'clock Tuesday night.
Dave Odom
I thought we would win then because we got it out of trouble. We'd been turning it over. Getting that thing out of harm's way I thought was maybe the turning point.
Dave Odom
I don't think it is an elimination game (from the NCAA) for either team. I think it is an important game. If Kentucky wins, certainly it gives them a leg up (over us) because they will have beat us twice. But there is still too much basketball to be played for both teams to say this is an elimination game.
