Jimmie Haywood:
"We were a little nervous in the first half. People were yelling my name. I was just trying to block that out and not let it affect me while I was playing. I came out and shot a lot before the game because I wanted to do well."

"We knew coming in that they were going to be tough to beat. They're good. They are a hard team to beat."

"We turned the ball over too much. They put pressure on us and we made careless mistakes."

"We didn't take care of the ball. They must have had 20 or 30 points off of turnovers."

"We need to get to the next game and put this behind us. The first half is over and we have to do well in the second half if we want to get to where we want to be and that is the postseason."

"We don't have a set starting lineup."

"I was offered a scholarship. If they didn't get him(Gilbert Arenas), they wanted me."

Brian Jackson:
"I wanted to do well here because they recruited me. So, I tried extra hard to do well."

"They (the Oregon State coaches) are trying to go with whomever they think will work."

"We made mental mistakes. Turnovers were big. But not just turnovers, but mental mistakes on defense. That hurts. Also. Our shot selection, not being patient enough."

"I'm not selling out on Oregon State because things are tough. I still think we can do good things."

On Michael Wright:
"He's a good player, he's strong, big, and he's hard to get around. He's good at using his body."
