It's not whether you get knocked down; it's whether you get up. — Vince Lombardi
Look at the non-conference results from our Sweet 16 and Elite 8 teams. Teams lose games early in the season, and the great teams, and players, learn and grow from them. We lost two tough road games and hopefully these kids learned that there is a lot of work left to do to get where they need to go. Today is another opportunity to learn and grow, by bouncing back from those two losses. As long as we turn the corner, I could care less about them.

i will actually go further. I am glad we lost these two games the way we did, collapsing in the second half of both games. The issues were there, just not visible. (Maybe visible to the coaching staff but certainly not to the players.) Now that they have surfaced, the issues can be turned into opportunities. It was going to happen one way or another. I am glad it surfaced now and not at the start of Big East play. We now have three games to address it before Providence.
