You gotta think they feel a little better than they first did about us, given what's going on with the LB regime

I'm sure UConn, Cincy and Temple all hope SMU and Houston get stronger and help bring up the conference RPI. Memphis was the only solid addition on paper but I think Tulsa could surprise people down the road. They have always had a pretty competitive hoops program and being associated with the AAC should help their recruiting. I think we have the makings of a really solid hoops league

I still don't understand why the current BE basketball schools wanted to bail so quickly. I'm sorry but the schools they added, although really good bball schools, can't compare to Louisville, UConn, Cincinnati, Memphis And a very much improved SMU, Houston and UCF.

Hopefully we can schedule and beat them in a few yrs

we could beat all but a couple of them next year. The peel off BE basketball schools are very overrated.

So if you're UConn, what are you thinking? What seemed like podunk SMU is now making you think, holy crap we may have something here. Wait til they walk away from the opening of Moody against them. What an atmosphere that's going to be!

The posters on the Memphis boards have been surprising suportive. I, being from Memphis, post on their regularly and they used to point to basketball whenever I pointed out how football has improved. They have been surprised that we landed first Brown and now a great recruiting class, and I think they are genuinely looking forward to competing with us - especially since we took a prized recruit away from hated Kentucky and Calipari.

Well let's hope we have all our horses ready to run. I will be glad to hear when Frazier declared eligible or ineligible. That will make somewhat of a difference in the season expectations.

You'll be glad to hear that's he ineligible?

I hope and believe he'll be available. But that game is going to open some eyes -- great facilities, legendary coach, and great gameday atmosphere. We'll compete if based on nothing but adrenaline alone
