Asked why Kentucky did not score for the first 11 minutes of the second half in the national semifinal game, Kentucky coach Joe B. Hall responded "extra-cerrestrial forces."

I'm not sure why this one sticks out in my mind and it's not an exact quote nor particulary funny or significant, but after he held the ball and did not take a shot with the clock expiring during a 2OT loss to Notre Dame, Brandon Bowman said: I guess I should have been paying attention to the clock.

"Me and Pat, we be fluffin'!" -Micheal Graham Yep, great quote. I also like Harvey Thomas' comment to the UCLA player after Thomas bit him. "By any means necessary." Even biting it seems.

i'm trying to find an archived article somwhere, but i remember after the GU - St. John's game, in which he blocked a record 12 shots, Dikembe answered a reporters question about how he was able to do it by saying something along the lines of, "they were very short".

LizziebethHoya has one of the best quotes in every one of her posts: "The Duke [win] was nice; this one is nicer. This is Georgetown-Syracuse; that's what it's all about."I know there are some on the board who don't agree 100% with this sentiment, but I absolutely loved it when he said it. I agree!!!! ;D

i normally think mike freeman of cbssports.com sucks...but this quote is a pure gem:
"If you don't like Georgetown, then you must also hate Christmas morning."

There's also a quote which I think is from Wilbon in the 80s that talks about Georgetown and defense. It goes kind of like:
"Defense. You know, full-throttle, end-to-end, relentless defense."
Ooooh, almost forgot - "Jon, fix it!"
Plus there's Billy Packer's comments on Iverson that showed that Billy should have been sent out to pasture a decade earlier.

Personal favorite:
"We were hearing Jared Dudley talk all about how the Big East wasn't any good and so I tell Jessie 'If I get the chance, I'm gonna dunk on him'" - PEJr
[My sig quotes don't count because one was taken off a Cuse message board and the other was yelled at me]

Most observant/profound quote: "Georgetown basketball coach John Thompson III, in a recent interview with ESPN.com's Dana O'Neil, had it right when he said of the NCAA: 'The system is designed for a world that doesn't exist.'"
Most fun quote: "Fourteen seconds to go. Here we go. Inbounds to Jessie... 12 seconds to go... Sapp crosses the timeline... Jessie feeds it in the post to Green... Green trying to drive... goes down the line, puts it to the floor... gets back, duck under by Jeff Green OFF THE GLASS IT'S GOOD! WITH TWO SECONDS TO GO! INBOUND TO GORDON! INBOUND TO GORDON! INBOUND TO GORDON! STROKES UP A BASKET! NO BASKET! NO BASKET! NO BASKET! NO BASKET! NO BASKET! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! HOYAS WIN! OUR CHEVY CHASE BANK! POST-GAME SHOW! IS NEEEEEXT!
*throws off headset* (the following can be heard faintly in the background)
YEEEEESS YEES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YEEESS! YES YES YES YES! WOOHOO! YES!...
*puts headset back on*
YES YES YES YES YES! WOW! Yes sir, Paul, baby! Yes sir, Paul! Yes sir, Hoyas! WAHOO! WOOHOOHOOHOOO! WHEWH! WOW! WOWOWOWOWOW! WOOHOO! WHOOH!... That's it for Vanderbilt."
Personal favorite: The aforementioned "When I die, if I can't go to heaven, take my body back to Georgetown."

Obviously before my time, but whatever Big John said to Rayful Edmond has to be on this list somewhere.
