Postgame Quotes: Kansas State
January 10, 2018 | Cowboy Basketball
Oklahoma State Head Coach Mike Boynton
On relentlessness of the game…
"They are all like that. Credit K-State for grinding it out and winning, but to be honest, it was a pretty gutless performance by my team. I have never been more disappointed than I am today since I became the head coach at Oklahoma State. Our fans deserve better, and they will get better."
On Cartier Diarra's performance…
"He is a good player and he is going to be a good player. Obviously he has got a lot to learn because it is a hard league to play in. He was thrown into the fire and he helped his team win tonight, so hats off to him."
Senior Guard Jeffrey Carroll
On the offensive stretch to end the game…
"I thought we played that last stretch kind of flat. We did not play tough that last stretch and we got exposed for it."
On Barry Brown's performance…
"We knew that with Kamau Stokes being out that Barry (Brown) had to step up. He is a great player. He made great players for his team tonight and it showed."
Sophomore Guard Brandon Averette
On his performance…
"I just came in the game doing what I do to bring energy and be aggressive. I was taking what the defense gave me."
On guarding defense against Barry Brown…
"We tried to play solid on him from the start to finish. He got going in transition. We have to be tougher and have more pride in guarding the ball in transition."
