The New Mexico head coach is very complimentary of BYU as a team, and Jimmer Fredette in particular. A sampling:
"Of all the teams we've played this year, this is the best team, by far."
"(BYU) is a very, very potent team...they do a good job at both ends, extremely well-coached... this is a team that can really shoot the basketball."
"(Fredette) is as good I've seen anywhere in the country...a very special talent."
"(Fredette) could score 40 on any given night...he's a load."
"Fredette is the best player we've faced to date, and this is the best team that we've faced to date."
"I thought (the Cougars) were a really good basketball team last year, and I think they're a better team this year...that's scary."
