[Charleston Pony]

If KD does come back for another year he is going to finish high up on a lot of career lists. We can always hope!

[shadowman]

SMU is the only AAC team to be undefeated at home this year. One more to go, then we need to turn Dickies Arena into Moody West. SMU needs to have the most and most vocal fans at the tourney. Need busloads and party busloads of students to make the trek over.

[Horseshoe]

Absolutely right. I'll be there
