Thoughts from Coach K after the win over Virginia: We’ve been playing hard. I got knocked back right after Christmas and I’ve been knocked back for a couple of weeks. It’s on me, not on my team. What we will be doing, that will be on all of us. Today was on all of us, win or lose. We’re all in today. That’s the way it is. We’re human beings and human beings have setbacks. You don’t get a lifetime membership to the tournament. Just because we’ve won it four times, we’ve been to 11 Final Fours – you have to pay your dues every year. That’s the way it is. It’s a good club and it’s tough to get in. We’re starting to pay our dues better. The head coach is going to do a better job. We did a better job tonight. I can do better for my team. We just have to run our own race. Whatever is said about us, is said about us. Win or lose. We’re in the top 10, we’re not in the top 10, we’re this, we’re that. I have a good basketball team and my kids played their hearts out tonight. We’re just going to keep moving on. Really, we’ll be immune to praise or criticism because we will be our own self critics and there won’t be any excuses. We’re just going to play. Today my team was marvelous and I love them for how hard they played.”
