just counting the kids we have coming back for 2+ years, we've got a 5 star, 2 4 stars (including Parade Magazine Player of the Year) and everybody got multiple BCS offers (except Jarrey Foster who got hurt after being named MVP at 6A Tournament as a Junior). They average over 10 offers each. Just about every one has unusually good length for his position. Boo Hoo. We are doomed. I like everybody on our roster that has 2+ years left-it could be a lot worse

Anyway, I know we're not going to agree on this. Mine is just one Pony's opinion.

Hey, a good debate is sometimes contains an ad hominem. Though most of the time it is not necessary like what I just did. LOL. I take the Corso back and the corrupt etc was not aimed at you. :D


Haha, no worries Reb. You've been around a long time. You're legit.

And just for the record, I don't think there is anyone on here who isn't really disappointed about the post-season ban for this team. I know I am. I just hope these guys rally, kick some major butt this season, and are ranked like #5 at the end of the regular slate. Then we'll be like the 800 lb gorilla in the room throughout the entire postseason.

Gotcha 1983, let's just hope that they don't forget about us once the post seasons start like the media and others tend to do. And if we do not get to play in the AAC tournament we will be so far removed from playing until we may not get hardly any mention in post season. I guess only time will tell.

Media forgets about us during the middle of the season. We are not that far from Garland civic center

At some point everyone will have to move on. You will feel better.
And saying you aren't going to bball games is just stupid. Anyone flinging themselves off the bandwagon will be quickly replaced. Moody ain't that big.

They are but it's just window dressing at this point. As Stallion has started a lawsuit means nothing at least at this point.

Obviously, we will support our team, unlike our administration. As far as the NCAA is concerned, I'll wait and see how mild the wrist slap is to UNC and Louisville.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

Louisville is going to be tough to prove, but UNC is going to raise some serious issues if the ncaa doesn't come down hard.

Definitely.

I know these sanctions have been pretty [deleted] us all, but if the NCAA doesn't come down [deleted] UNC I will definitely be upset.
