Jay Wright and the ‘Cats are settled in on the west coast, preparing and counting down until their big matchup with UCLA. With a long day to get through before 11:30 p.m. ET tip-off on Friday night, here are some thoughts from Wright on the upcoming showdown.
“We got in Wednesday night around six or seven, so I feel like we’re pretty accustomed to the time change and ready to go,” Wright said. “...This is a business trip. We’re treating this as if we’re going up to North Philly and playing La Salle. It’s a road game, and we’re treating it the same way and and respect every opponent.
