Greg Anthony, when asked before the title game about whether the team thought the game was Good vs. Evil said: "I am privileged to live in a nation that just doesn't educate the ELITE."

UNLV is a state run college that is easy to get into. You have to have schools like that. Especially a school like UNLV with its restaurant and hospitality type majors that are were designed to give all students a real job after they graduated. There are a lot students with doctorates in history from Columbia who are driving cab cars right now in NYC.
