Dave Rose Great Quotations

He has great recruiting ties and outstanding basketball knowledge. He really understands the game. Walter also has an excellent rapport with the players in our program.

I think this is a great opportunity for us. Playing at The Pit can be a lot of fun. It's a great atmosphere and a great place to play basketball.

Trent has a great attitude and comes to compete everyday. He has a couple moves that he really likes, and defenses aren't letting him make those moves. He's adjusted well to being able to move around and get shots off; now he's just got to make them. The most important thing is for him to keep his confidence up and for his teammates to keep trusting him. Once he gets a few baskets in transition, it'll really help his psyche.

We actually had a great crowd tonight. Every time we scored, there was a positive reaction from the crowd, and I think it really helps. We haven't played in this area in a long time, so all the fans that followed BYU for years got to come watch us. We also have three players on our team from Texas. It was nice to have the fans' support.

We appreciate the support our fans have given us this season. The fans are a big reason why the Marriott Center is such a great place to play, and we hope they will come out and enjoy a great game on Saturday.

It's a great time of year. There's a lot going on, and there's a lot of focus being paid to conference standings and potential NCAA tournament teams. It's a time of year where some people thrive and others struggle.
