•CONRAD: “I understand (the decision to move the game up). Our owners are huge KU fans, and they own us, so they make the decisions. I don’t really watch college basketball until the end of the game anyway. This is our third Final Four in a row. We’re sort of getting used to this. We’ve won the most college championships in history, so we don’t make a big deal out of it.”
•HARRINGTON: “I’m excited about being able to watch it. I’ll probably meet up with some of the guys after our game and watch it with them.”
•ZAVAGNIN: “The first and foremost thought is our game and getting a result. For our fans and KU fans, I think it’s all good. I’ve been out when KU has games as a neutral observer, and KU fans get a little out of control, so I don’t know if I could take it being out among them watching. If anyone knows of a North Carolina watch party, let me know. I doubt whether there’s one within 500 miles of here.”
•HARTMAN: “After what the Bruins did to the Jayhawks last year, it’s understandable (that the UCLA fans get the raw end of the deal). The primary thing on our minds is our game, obviously. We have a TV inside our locker room, so I might just hang out there after our game. I won’t have a portable TV in goal with me, so Wizards fans don’t have to worry.”
•MYERS: “We’ll TiVo the game. I’ll probably just have my parents keep me updated on my phone with texts.”
•VICTORINE: “It’s tough to miss the UCLA game for sure. Everybody understands why (the game was moved up). It’s so important to people in this town. This way, everybody can see every event … except the UCLA game. I think it makes sense. I always TiVo the games. I’ll probably just hear the score when our game’s over. Focus on our game, then when I’m done, I’m sure someone will tell me the score. Hopefully, we’ll get to see part of it, which will be nice.”
