Our main leader (last year) was Jason (Ellis), who is probably one of the better players to ever play at Boise State, but he was one of the quieter ones, too. That was tough on our team.

He's probably the main difference between what they played like last year and the great stuff they're playing now,

One of our main motivations has to be that we want to finish strong. As I tell the players all the time, people remember the last thing you did. And we're getting to the point where it's the last thing we're going to do.

I've known Andre (Miller) for about ten years since he's been at the University of Utah. It's good to hear his voice and his support. All those things are good. I appreciate the support from all my friends and family. Everything's kinda in the past right now. Surgery went well, and I'm happy to be here for spring break.

I'm not expecting anything less than what Nevada will give you every night. I'm sure it's a tough atmosphere that's very loud.

He was very encouraging. He's kind of a Superman, but he said he came back with more energy.
