Reggie Theus Game Quotations

It's about rebounding. At Hawaii they beat us on the boards and I thought that was the key to this game tonight.

This is a great opportunity for us to potentially get what I would call an extremely quality win on the road. And a home-and-home is really great because, if we were to pick, this is a game we would try to schedule anyway. I think it's a good one, and we're looking forward to it.

With all that happening, what cost us the game were the errors we made down the stretch. Having to play Nevada and Utah State all over again, I have to coach morale. It can affect your team psychologically.

They're a team that wants to slow the game down. And we want the game to be as fast as possible. So it's really going to be a matter of who can get the tempo going their way.

They're a team that tries to slow the game down, and we're a team that tries to play as fast as possible. It's going to be a matter of who can get the tempo to go their way.

I'm disappointed, but not angry because I thought our guys played extremely hard. We had our chances, we just did not do the things down the stretch of the game that would allow us to win the game.

I kept him out of the game in Hawaii so he would be 100 percent for the start of the tournament.

We have guys that haven't played a game in a year, so the trip this summer will help us in a lot of ways. We'll be able to build chemistry and get some guys some much needed time on the court.

Obviously, (the Red Raiders) are very well coached. They run their stuff until they get a good look. From a talent standpoint, they're very average. They have a couple of real solid players, but they just run their stuff. This game is very simple, but we make it hard.
