I say this with the utmost love and respect for Jordair---my guess, so far, is that they're a little different. Davell is a legit 6'4", I'm almost 6'2" and he towered over me. I met Jordair last winter, I was definitely taller than him. It also looks like Davell is coming in with much more refined shooting skills. Check out this YouTube link
Again, Love me some Jett, butt his outside shot came out of his stomach, reminded me of how my dad or middle schoolers shoot 3's.
+1 on the 'butt his outside...' still laughing

I know a few teams in front of us lost but right now the only team I see us jumping is Iowa St. I say we are #11 in the AP tomorrow.
Thoughts?
Michigan St lost to Nebraska at home today by 9, that cannot be good for them.

I saw 5 students drinking beer at the last game, that's 5 more than I've ever seen. Nice job.
About 5 more than BACKHANDtheRICAN can handle...

and Carlton Banks
+1, great call there

Backhand brought his younger brother to his 1st Billiken game last night. Wow, we suck.

Timmerman posted an update on STLToday a couple hours ago.

Mitchell's cast came off Monday and he reportedly went directily into the pool for rehab work. The bone healed properly, and is on track for a mid- to late-December return.
Not good news. Great news there.
Remekun is still day-to-day with the knee issue, and Timmerman says Coach Crews told him the team is not in a rush to get Remekun back on the court.
If CR doesn't play tomorrow against Santa Clara, that will pose some interesting matchups with the athletic Broncos lineup.
For a full preview of Wednesday's game:
The real question: Is Remekun's undershirt healthy?

They have some good new Nike dri-fit shirts for working out as well.
Sweet, I'm going to blast my pecs

the following is a post at the a-10 message board by Dayton fan, Muddy Waters. I love his thinking. the icky part is the fordham expulsion which probably kills the idea. but beyond that, i love the set up. the concept could also be achieved by making the hard choice of either george mason or vcu and inserting fordham in the other slot.
1. Expel Fordham
2. Form 3 Divisions of 5 teams:
Northeast Division
1. LaSalle
2. Massachusetts
3. Rhode Island
4. St. Bonaventure
5. St. Joseph's
Southeast Division
1. Charlotte
2. George Mason
3. George Washington
4. Richmond
5. Virginia Commonwealth
West Division
1. Butler
2. Dayton
3. Duquesne
4. Saint Louis
5. Xavier
3. Play 18 regular season games (8 games vs. your own division + 10 non-division games).[/background]
4. The 12 best teams get invited to the Atlantic 10 Tournament in March. The 3 worst teams don't.[/background]
5. The top 4 seeds, by definition, are the three Division winners + the best team that did not win its Division.[/background]
6. Everybody is happy, except Fordham, who won’t adequately invest in basketball, and is never happy anyway.[/background]
7. Wait for Xavier, Dayton, Saint Louis, Butler, and Richmond to bolt when DePaul, Georgetown, Marquette, Providence, Seton Hall, St. John’s and Villanova get tired of being pushed around by the football schools and decide to form a proper 12-team basketball-centric conference of like-minded, private universities which has inherent long-term stability
I like it, great basketball conference. And having more nearby division games cuts down on the travel.

Alden is an idiot. The NCAA hoops tourney is the most exciting time of the year in sports, while the NCAA football bowl games are generally boring and irrelevant, aside from the championship game. Would be a huge mistake.

Are they willing to throw in $20,000 for the volleyball player of his choice and a new Harley?
+1... well played

What does he need more money for! He is well fed and he can't take it with him.
Don't 'kid' yourself, money talks
