""One suggestion for the NCAA is when you have interviews on the court for Duke, for the winning team, and they have time there - the game started before we even came in here - is to have the losing team go first.""
""You should let the losing team go first and then let the winning team have as long as you want. Just a suggestion. Because you just left us hanging out there for over a half hour.""
""It was our defense that broke down. It wasn't so much not being in the right place. We just got bullied to the basket.""
Rick Pitino expressed frustration over NCAA policies following St. John's loss to Duke in the NCAA tournament. He suggested that the losing team should hold their postgame press conference before the winning team to avoid the disappointment of waiting while the winners celebrate. Pitino emphasized that the losing team deserves to address the media first, as they are left feeling dejected. He also noted that defensive breakdowns contributed to the loss, stating that his team was outmatched physically during the game.
