Two comments from the morning paper here in KC. Joe Posnanski, described SIU's game like this:
"You know the unbelievably annoying guy who shows up at your office basketball game and decides to play violent, hand-in-your-face defense the whole game? You know how -- after you've missed a few shots and can't get open and are having absolutely no fun at all -- you just want to punch him in the face or lock him in your trunk or ship him UPS to Mongolia?
"Well, Southern Illinois has about nine of those guys."
And Jason Whitlock wrote this, which I believe:
"Self coached brilliantly and is the primary reason the Jayhawks are one win away from the Final Four. Self perfectly anticipated what kind of game the Salukis would make the Jayhawks play and never for one instant wavered on his message to hi steam.
" 'Drive the basketball!' Self shouted repeatedly throughout the night."
