[I]On what he knows about Ole Miss …[/I]
“(I have) heard they have a great small forward that’s solid. That’s all I know so far.”
[I]On how they’re playing right now …[/I]
“We’re playing great so far as a team. We’re all coming together, closing games out very well. We’re all (playing) our role, and I think if we keep doing that, then it’s hard to beat us.”
[I]On if their goal is to go undefeated in the conference …[/I]
“We’re trying to do that, but we just have to keep fighting and keep playing how we’re playing so far and see what happens.”
[I]On if Ole Miss could be a “trap game” …[/I]
“We take every game seriously and we take every game like it’s a big game. We’re not worried if they lost at home last game, we’re worried about how we’re going play and worried about beating them.”
[B]#25 Marquis Teague, G, Fr.[/B]
[I]On the goals for the team …[/I]
“We just want to finish out strong, keep continuing to win, and keep getting better as a team.”
[I]On why he thinks this team will not have a letdown …[/I]
“We are all dedicated and hard working. People are working out every day in the gym, getting extra shots up, and extra time in the weight room. We just continue to work hard every day and we all have a will to win.”
[I]On having this past week off from games …[/I]
“We wanted to play another game, but it was good to give our bodies a little break. It gave us time to work in the gym, get some shots up, and get in the weight room to get a little stronger. It helped us out to get a little rest.”
[I]On being referred to as a “pit bull” by Coach Calipari …[/I]
“I always like to take pride in my defense and not allow my man to score on me. I like to try and make it tough on the opponent offensively.”
[I]On his teammates pushing one another to improve …[/I]
“We push each other in practice all of the time. We go at each other as hard as we can and make it competitive and try and make each other better. Coach Cal wants us to push each other.”
[B]#33 Kyle Wiltjer, F, Fr.[/B]
[I]On his thoughts about the open practice …[/I]
“It was a lot of fun. It just shows how great the fans are here. Having a practice and having people interested in coming to watch. It’s just great to be part of such a great fan base here and I’m honored to play for Kentucky.”
[I]On whether he ever imagined he’d have the chance to practice in front of 2,000 people …[/I]
“No, and it was televised too which is pretty crazy. I’m just blessed to be here and have such great people around us.”
[I]On how calm he seems about everything …[/I]
“I’m just trying to enjoy it. This is a first time for me, being in college. I’ve always wanted to play college basketball and I’m here so I’m just trying to have fun and get better.”
