PLAYER GAME QUOTES

This is a very special win for me. I took a lot of heat and criticism when I decided to leave Indiana University, and that hurt. My family lives there. My friends live there. That's my home state, and if we would have lost this one, I don't think I would have been able to show my face in that state again.
