Reggie Theus Best Quotations

To best honest with you, I don't think anybody wants to play us. Our level (of play) can go from the middle to very high, depending on how we're flowing that night.

I'm not really about having to go back and play them back to back like that. From a psychological standpoint, when you have to play the two best teams in the league two weekends in a row, it can be devastating to your morale and your whole psyche. Losing against these guys is not the issue, it's the psychological effect it could have. It could have a lasting effect if you lose the majority of these games.

It's a real difficult question to answer because they're all very different. This (Nevada) is a more athletic team than Utah State. But Utah State is the best shooting team in college basketball. They're almost a better shooting team than my UNLV team in '77. Almost.

First of all, I think that stinks, the schedule. That they (Nevada and Utah State) are travel partners stinks. They (the WAC) knew they were two of the best teams in the league.

We took their best shot and never quit. A lot of times when a team is hitting 3-pointers, it takes the air out of you, but not these guys. It shows what kind of heart my guys have.

For me being new here, it's everything I thought it would be. It bodes well for us in general. I've heard coaches say this is the best field we've had in a number of years. I'm happy to be part of it.
