After Northwestern’s first-ever tournament win, Northwestern head coach Chris Collins, center Dererk Pardon and point guard Bryant McIntosh met with the media.
- Collins’ opening statement: “Just a special day for our team, for our program. Great win against a really good team. We have a lot of respect for Vanderbilt, we have all week. We knew how good they were, we knew how hot they've been coming into the tournament.
And coming out to the floor, before we answer questions, when I saw that purple in that arena, man, that was awesome.
