Larry Eustachy Team Quotations

I can't imagine what those guys and their program have been through. We respect them as much as any team in the league.

I don't think we're afraid of anybody. Our team will never quit. We're anxious to see where we stand.

I think Ron does as good a job as anybody in our league. They're a young team but I like the way they play and I like the way he coaches.

I thought this was the most mentally tough we've played down the stretch and I think we learned from the mistakes that we've made throughout the year. ... We were the tougher team down the stretch.

This was as good as I've seen them play. We couldn't match their athleticism at times, and I think we got outplayed at times, too. That Auburn team is going to be good.

I've wanted to get our team to overachieve all year, even though we've been playing out of position with our backs against the wall, but they did that tonight as they continued to scrap and fight the whole game. Overall, it was a positive team builder for next year.

This is a team (Memphis) that could win a national championship, so let's make no mistake about it; who you play and where you play them is huge. We could play these guys 100 times and get closer, but we're just stacked up against us right now.

That's the fastest team I've ever coached against. They might eventually be ranked No. 1. I didn't think the game was won by 17 points; I thought it was closer. I think that if we could have made some free throws that we could have turned the corner.

They are the fastest team I have ever coached against. As a collection of runners, they really come at you.
