Quote of the Day

“I just want a fair opportunity, because I just want to compete to try to earn my spot. I just want a winning school, a winning coach and good teammates. I don’t want a coach to say to me, ‘Come here and play 30 minutes.’ I want a coach who says, ‘Come here and compete. I have a lot of good players and it will be fair.”
– Purdue guard Omer Mayer
