Bruce Weber press conference

Weber: Put themselves in position where they have pressure to win over last 6 to make the NCAAs and make something of their season.

Weber: Sam Maniscalco practiced yesterday. "I think he'll get to go." Hopes he can give "solid minutes and make a couple shots"

Weber: If team goes 8-10, hopes tournament looks at ending of Minnesota game. He has asked the Big Ten to help argue their case.

Weber: Tracy Abrams plays better in games than practice. PG doesn't come natural to him but "he's starting to see some things."

Weber said Tracy Abrams has been one of the leaders of the team, "which may be a problem, to be honest" bc he's a freshman.
