Sophomore men's basketball guard Rex Pflueger on playing four games in seven days "It's less and less because we don't have as many seniors that have used up their eligibility. I'm cry- ing right now because I don't have Will Fuller. He didn't have a Senior Day. Jaylon Smith, Ronnie Stanley, KeiVarae Russell, is that enough? Those guys, they're all juniors, and they really didn't have a true Senior Day." — Head football coach Brian Kelly when asked about Senior Day "I think this season has taught me that.

Last year, I was thrown into a fire and came out pretty successful. And my whole career up until that point was me being a top athlete in a leading position and being successful.
