Riley Wallace Good Quotations

When you talk about good attitude and working hard, start with him.

He's a real quality signing for us. He's got good size, he can shoot, and he's a good student. He's the whole package.

I thought our post defense was good tonight. We didn't give them a whole lot of easy stuff until late. Overall, I thought it was a good man defense.

Riley was one of our top gets with what he can do. He gives us firepower at that position with who we have coming back. He'll be a real good one for us.

That was just a good old ass-kicking. We don't get those too often.

We already saw how good they can be, and they're even better at home.

We had a good lead on New Mexico State down there and got into a transition game with them and they beat us. Louisiana Tech has always played us tough here. We've got our work cut out.

There's nobody in the country who can match what we do for our seniors. We've created something special with the fans for that, and this is a special group that deserves another good send off.

I use it to help them get hungrier. There are reasons for that (domination in Reno). They're good and there's the fatigue factor (playing at Reno's 4,500-feet elevation).

You obviously have to be smart to get into that school. But they also recruit kids who are perfect fits for that system. That's why they're so good every year.

They got nothing to play for, but that means they could be the spoilers. And they're good enough to knock off anybody.

They had the hustle, they had a good game plan, and they beat the ... out of us. That's all I can say.

They don't make a lot of mistakes. That's the way they play, not because they're in the Ivy League, but because of the way they're coached. They don't make a lot of mistakes and they make good decisions.

It's not that bad. We got in OK ? got enough rest. And we had a good workout (last night), so we're as ready as we can be.

It's going to be hard to replace those guys. But we still have a good group coming back.

They can score a lot of points, they want that up-tempo game. We can't get into a between-the free-throw-line kind of game, because that's where they beat you out there in the middle. We've got to play good solid defense and try to keep their penetration down.

That's a lot of beating yourself against a very good team. If we don't improve the free-throw shooting, we're going to be in trouble.

That's a lot of beating yourself against a good team.

In the future it's going to be very difficult. They're going to have to do a good job of recruiting guys who have the potential. The thing that kills people that's not fair, the No. 1 reason kids leave school is playing time. You can't control that. You get penalized for his decision and not yours.

I figured they would come out flat after getting blown out, but they come back and beat a very good Nevada team. Now we know we're going to have our hands full.

You want to have competition at every spot. Hopefully the guys you bring in are good enough to push the guys we have coming back.
