"Okay, I'm gonna say it. St. John's fans, I grabbed [St. John's head coach Rick Pitino's wife] at the end of the [Big East Tournament championship game], and I was like, 'How do you do this?'... I was rooting for St. John's. Like, do I want to play them? Probably not, but I didn't want to play Duke either."
"I thought, so, that's really sad. It doesn't always work that way."
