"He just told us to play hard," freshman Jordan Murphy said. "(He told us), we have to start playing like men. That put the Nebraska loss behind us. Whenever somebody throws a punch at us, we have to get back up eventually."
Murphy said it was helpful having someone outside the program give the Gophers advice and inspiration after they've been through so much adversity.
Pitino addressed this team once before the season. The last time he attended a game was after giving the Gophers a pep talk before their win over Rutgers in the opening round of the Big Ten tournament last season.
"I think when it's a long season, it's always good to get other voices," Gophers coach Richard Pitino said. "We're all saying the same thing. It's just if you hear from somebody else it's always a good thing."
