Eustachy's Cyclone teams will remind fans of Floyd's squads. Both coaches stress defense and half-court offenses. Eustachy's teams, however, will try to speed up the offense and push the ball up the court. What's most important to Eustachy is putting good citizens and good students on the Hilton Coliseum court. They're going to go to the study table, they're going to represent this university in a well-mannered way and at the same time be able to help us win some basketball games.
Character is everything.
School is everything. Basketball is second. Eustachy said he would not rush to assemble a coaching staff. His first priority is recruiting players for the 1999-2000 season.
