Floyd Reese Game Quotations

The thing that is really unique about it is that this at least the third year in a row where you could go out and say, 'Well, how much can he improve?'  ... But after six games this year, he's off the charts, and yet there's nothing to make you say this is as good as he's going to get or he'll never be better. I don't know where he goes from here, but right now he's doing pretty darn good.

We pushed the envelope for a number of years there, trying to win as many games as we could. And we won a bunch of them.

He's probably a great example of just what we're looking for in unrestricted free agency. He's young, he's healthy. He's done a lot of things, and maybe most importantly, he's a great guy, classy kid ... and he's coming from a program that's won a lot of games so that's very, very important to us.

We've had a premise and a game plan for that set aside all along in our plans -- a Plan A, Plan B, Plan C type of thing -- so we've been able to work through it.

Last year, we had seven players leave. Those seven players had a combined 52 playoff games. We've signed four players to date, and those four have 30 playoff games ? a younger, healthier group. I think you can see the direction we're headed.
