During the season, the Cardinal chalked up a 26-7 record, the fourth-most number of wins in school history.

During the season, Montgomery directed the team to an appearance in the NCAA Final Four. Walking around San Antonio and seeing all the people wearing their Stanford stuff and recognizing so many familiar faces was great, said Montgomery. It brought home what college basketball is all about, which is being proud of your school and how your players handle themselves and compete. So from a university standpoint, there is nothing better. From a basketball standpoint, this puts us in the upper echelon.

He was an assistant coach at Colorado State for two seasons ( , ) after four years as a head coach (two seasons at San Diego State in and , and two seasons at Pepperdine in , ). Tony brings with him a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience on the Division I level, said Cardinal head coach Mike Montgomery. Fuller began his coaching career as an assistant coach at Pepperdine under Jim Harrick from From there, Fuller went with Harrick to UCLA as an assistant coach for four seasons ( ) before obtaining his first head coaching position. As a player at Pepperdine, Fuller earned All-West Coast Conference honors and helped the Waves to the NCAA Tournament in 1979 and the NIT in He then played for the NBA s Detroit Pistons, and the Anchorage Knights of the CBA before entering the coaching profession. Fuller earned his bachelor s degree in physical education in 1983, and his Master s Degree in 1989 from Pepperdine. Fuller was born September 4, Eric Reveno Assistant Coach Eric Reveno, who played a major role in the success of Stanford basketball in the late 1980 s, is in his fourth season as an assistant coach on The Farm. Eric was a hard working player and team captain from our successful 1989 NCAA team, said Cardinal head coach Mike Montgomery. He has two degrees from Stanford. He is a perfect fit for our program. Reveno played in 116 games during his four year career at Stanford ( ), including 30 games as a starter during his senior season in During that season, Reveno averaged 9.4 points and 5.1 rebounds per game. Reveno was the team s starting center and helped lead the Cardinal to a 26-7 record, a 15-3 mark in the Pac-10, and a 12 national ranking. The Cardinal advanced to the NCAA tournament, Stanford s first appearance in the tourney since the season. Reveno is fifth all-time in blocked shots with 61.

During the past two off-seasons, Reveno has coached at the Pete Newell Big Man Camp in Hawaii. Reveno and his wife, Amanda, reside in Menlo Park. Blaine Taylor Assistant Coach Blaine Taylor, the highly successful head basketball coach at the University of Montana for seven years, joined the Stanford staff as an assistant coach on April 13, We were extremely happy that Blaine Taylor joined the Stanford family two years ago, said Cardinal head coach Mike Montgomery. Blaine did an outstanding job at Montana, and his coaching expertise is exceptional. He has been a great addition to our coaching staff. He was my starting point-guard for three years when I was at Montana. He also served as my graduate assistant coach. He has a great knowledge of the game and he is a valuable asset to our program. Taylor chalked up a record in seven seasons ( ) as head coach of the Grizzlies. His winning percentage of.686 is fifth-best all-time in the Big Sky Conference history. During his tenure at Montana, Taylor guided the program to two Big Sky Conference regular season titles, three post-season appearances (two NCAA, one NIT), and five 20-wins seasons. The Grizzlies have won 20 or more games 15 times in school history, and Taylor s teams accomplished that five times; in 1992 (27 wins), 1994 (20 wins), 1995 (21 wins), 1996 (20 wins), and 1997 (21 victories). Montana averaged 20.3 wins per game during Taylor s tenure as head coach. His team chalked up a 27-4 record, a Big Sky title and a trip to the NCAA Tournament. In the 37-year history of the Big Sky Conference, only three teams have won 27 games. The Taylor family s involvement with Stanford University has been a tremendous experience, said Taylor, who was a starting point-guard for Montgomery (former head coach at Montana) from He later was a graduate assistant coach for Montgomery in 1982 and Taylor is ninth in career assists at Montana with 300. He is also one of the school s leading career free throw percentage shooters at.819 percent and he scored 753 career points.

Taylor and his wife, Annie, have four daughters; Amber 19, Ashley 12, Alexandria 9, and Alanna, 6 1/2. When evaluating the move to Stanford, the combination of coach Montgomery, the program, Stanford, and the Bay Area were extremely compelling, said Taylor. I take great personal pleasure in having the lifetime memory of being present for Mike s 400th win, becoming the winningest coach in school history, and the first Pac-10 title in some time. I am of the opinion the Bay Area would be a great fit for my family and that has certainly been the case. Taylor, 43, became the head coach at Montana in April of He had been an assistant at his alma mater the previous five seasons. Taylor had been at Montana as a player or coach 19 of the last 21 years.
