upcoming season

with school back in, has anybody seen the Rack play lately? Is he healthy? I gotta think the starting lineup to start the season would ideally be Dez, Roberts, Pearson, Morris and Rack if he can go. Maybe Ritter starts over Morris because he is a freshman but I gotta think Morris can help us physically. I look for a more healthy Derrick Roberts to have a breakout year now that he has some experience under his belt too.

He was touted as being a scoring machine with a sweet J and do we ever need that.

Morris wont start, and if he wants to play at all he'll have to develop a work ethic first. He was badly out of shape this summer.

The Rack has been impressive in early work outs this fall. He will be a big contributor. Morris will have to get in shape ... but Coach will see to it ...work ethic is never a choice with Coach. Don't forget about Epps either. As soon as he gets over his hernia operation...he will provide some much needed outside shooting.

You are right Hoop Fan, Roberts is going to be really good as well as Pearson. There is a reason "Little Billy G" tampered with Derrick in the off season.

I dont like hearing that. The power forward spot is just begging for someone to take it. I was hoping Morris would be that guy. If not, that leads to hope we can hold on until BHop gets back and then go 3 guards with Pearson as the 4.
