I haven't been wringing anything over recruiting. I'm just joining the crowd that is tired of accepting 4 games over 500 and saying we're on the right path. We've got the pieces in place to have a decent team...and then we get, "let's hope we go 2-1 in this thing." Why is everyone going to be content with beating Lamar, Louisiana Tech, and then losing to T A&M and call it a great weekend? We've got to knock some of these people off. Why not T A&M? They play a lot like UB's style. In your face defense, scores in the 50's, we shouldn't concede anything to the Aggies...C'mon Brich, time to expect more.

See, here we go again...let's go 2-1(MEDIOCRITY!)...screw it, let's go 3-0. Why should TX A&M scare us? Forget the Paradise Jam...this is the new age for Billiken Basketball. Two all conference Frosh (one an all american),All conference NBA draft camp invited Center, three juniors who have racked up significant minutes and a talented enigmatic senior vying for the other two spots...this year, the mantra should be accept no prisoners, no moral victories (except maybe UNC), no excuses...just wins and the NCAA!

Torch, wouldn't this be our 2006 class since they can all play this year? Also, I wouldn't be calling JJ our incumbent PF... our enigmatic PF or erstwhile PF would be more like it.

Yeah, I don't get that either? You don't see this too often...if ever.

Is this a tournament or just two games?

The hockey thing was a joke...

Hey, TajMahal 79, I'm originally from the great state of Maine....watch it there, buddy. Maine had some great Yankee Conference champs back in the early to mid 60s...and they'd kick our ass in Hockey and Baseball.

Not living there, hard to judge...but seeing what other schools do to promote their programs...we suck.

I'm no prude, but the 5th question in these things is sexist... not relevant to the board. Find a chat room or some other site to discuss which celeb you'd most like to get rejected by......

I don't know what you have to be to get in trouble...if anything other than a school official. But a fan going on a kid's website...my face...or whatever is really no different than the fan the kid meets at a Walmart and says, "hey, you're not really going to Kentucky are you?" Or whatever else he hears from fans of other schools. How's the NCAA going to stop that? But Broy brings up a good point...I'll lay you a 1,000 to 1 AC's and probably even some HC's monitor recruits' sites and pose as fans...Hell, I wouldn't put anything past a lot of these coaches when it comes to landing a prize recruit. Some of 'em would prostitute their own wives and mothers for a blue chipper.

Isn't it rather late for this not to be known? What dates are we having trouble with. Is below the schedule as we know it: 16 conference games...two w/ X, Dayton, and RI the balance being single games with the rest of the conference. UNC, Loyola, SIU, Missouri State, Mississippi, 2 games at Tx A&M tourney. That makes 23 games I know of. So we've got 4-5 games to fill in? Are we playing in any holiday tourneys?

Cheeseman, Huggins may have done that in the past, but ask his good friend Bobby Lutz, who gave him a stirring testimonial at his going away party, what he thinks of Huggy bear these days. Huggy's trying to steal the Beasely kid away, top 10, by hiring Charlotte's AC. Sampson, Stemler case excluded, is a proven rule breaker and has no morals when it comes to recruiting. I'm still surprised IU hired him, he seems beneath their tradition.

Cheeseman would have been impressed had you stated " a potential top 100 class of '08 recruit." That would have arched his eyebrows.

The only way we get in the Big East is if as Tarheel says a couple of FB schools leave for the B-10 plus we have a program that is above mediocre. Even then it's doubtful as the BE would try and replace defectors with other FB schools...see Memphis and others. The BCS money is big they don't want to lose it.

last I read he was holed up at someone's house outside of Lebanon.

1.) Old era: 1971 over Louisbille to tie for MVC conf champ. New Era: Beat UMass in first round Of NCAA 97-98, 2.) Clagg, H, Highmark 3.) KL 4.) LM -he fits UB's comfort zone 5.) Why ask, it ain't gonna happen.

Well, the closest I'm getting to an A-10 team this year is Fordham. They play the CofC here in Charleston. This tells you we are in a mid major conference. CofC would be a guarantee or buy in for a major, ie Duke ain't ever coming to Charleston. I know a lot of people will say we travel to Missouri State and SIU but those are long term deals.

should be a huge draw....probably going to have Hansboro's whole town there..how big is Pine Bluff? Plus any StL college hoops fan is going to want to go even if they hate the Bills...it's frigging UNC. I'm sorry I'm missing it...going to be a very special evening to my way of thinking. I just hope ESPN picks it up..which they should it's Friday night...not may college hoops on Friday's.

Screw St.Joes...they're due for a huge payback...making us look like a middle school team on national TV...

Thanks, sorry can't make it just to close to the holidays. Hopefully, it will be on TV here...May try and make a home game this year...definitely will be in Atlantic City.

$60,000's a lot...ought to attract someone...

Broy, forget my tickets too close to Xmas, I have family coming in. If you've bought 'em bill me...then try and sell. Crap I was hoping it was early December.....dammit.

Couple of questions. Has date of UNC game been announced? Do we play Charlotte twice this year? Is the schedule set or are we still looking for games to fill in?

before I leave this ianane thread...Vtime, the crowd that night might total 4,000...it ain't gonna be hard to find people. Make your own sign, or better yet pretend you're Winston Churchill and walk around flashing the V sign at everyone...People will get the message and introduce themselves. If anyone gives you any grief, just bop 'em with your racket.

VTime, suspended does not equal banned. I think the comments about Harris Stowe in this thread were uncalled for. I don't know anything about Harris Stowe, but if it's a place where people are trying to better themselves...let it go at that. As to VTime...yeah he's annoying at times with all the crap about having a SLU team that only has St.L kids on it, but it's still interesting to see who his next Larry Hughes is going to be. What got you banned was the fact you were trying to turn this into a website for Vashon HS. And let's not forget the post on the Harris Stowe Tennis team...this ain't the place to be thumping your chest or for shameless self promotion.
