has anybody seen our heralded Top 20 recruiting class* of 2007? Seven points from upperclassmen INCLUDING Bamba.

* Not Stallion's Opinion.

Time is crawling right now.


Look, my Irish forefathers waited 800 years to get rid of the English. I think we can wait a little longer.

I'm patient, but I can't stand losing to the Frogs in basketball...we have beaten them in hoops for a few years in a row now, and it's time for us to distance ourselves from their program the way they have distanced their football program from ours. We need to move to the next echelon, and we aren't going to get there with performances like tonight.

I'm not gonna pull punches, that was one of the worst halfs of basketball I've seen in some time.

We have solid guards, but they had to make a 10 minute adjustment to true man pressure and a double on the ball. Can't dribble through everything, fellas!

Harp is non-existant. Dia is non-existant. Bamba is Bamba, very average. Step up, Malone.

If you are going to start Frank Otis, Frank Otis better get some damn boards.

We rebound like pansies. We play defense w/o discipline.

Step the eff up in the 2nd half

I think any optimism regarding this team was based around the notion that Dia was going to be a real force down low. Makes me wonder how Doherty calls this guy the most talented big he's ever coached and he's been such a non-factor this season. 0-1 in the first half??? Does he not like offense? At this point I have ZERO expectations of Faye being any good since he's recently been endorsed by Doh as a potential dominating player in CUSA...

Dia was good last year. We aren't seeing the same Dia this year.

TCU just gave us a gift, and we get a 5 second call.

WHAT THE HELL ARE WE DOING?

Get Harp out of there, he brings nothing. He plays scared

Let's go, boys. Sack up Frank! Mccoy can get that foul line extended jumper all day. Hit the glass and D up
