Kansas-Baylor redux: Self speaks

Posted to Tourney Tracker by Ross Taylor at 2:55 p.m., March 12, 2009

I was unable to attend the news conference for Kansas coach Bill Self, but the Big 12 has made interview transcripts available to the media. Here are some of the more interesting gems from the conference:

-- "They were certainly better than us from the start. We got exactly what we deserved" (

-- "We were definitely a half step slow or a full step, and they beat us to the majority of the loose balls. We let them get comfortable. You can't let good shooters get comfortable."

-- "We know how to guard [Baylor's LaceDarius] Dunn and we did not guard him the way he should be defended."

-- "Today is a reality check."
