"It was just painful, to see your brother hurt like that," senior Terance Mann said Friday, recounting the moment when Cofer received the news after their win against Vermont. "We kind of all got together, cried with him." The mood in Florida State's locker room was still somber Friday, as players seemed to field as many questions about their grieving teammate as they did about Morant. Mann said the team mourned together after Thursday's game, then returned to the hotel. They brought Cofer some food, and watched other NCAA tournament games with him in relative silence.
