Reyes told The Manila Standard that "you can never say never" when asked about the possibility of returning to coaching and added '"the last thing I still like to be in my career is to lead a team to the Olympics."
Currently heading a revamped TV 5 which is developing primarily into a sports network. Reyes' first love has been basketball and it is a well-known fact that he has a tremendous passion for the game as shown in the Fiba Asia Championships held in Manila when he led Gilas Pilipinas to a runner-up finish and earned a spot in the Fiba World Cup of Basketball in Spain on a slogan "Laban! Puso!"
