    My starting 5.

    I would only halfway disagree on that. First, Gesell will be a starter. But Clemmons could start as well. That puts MG at the 2. Moving White to the 4 has to happen. I think Fran is hesitant to put three frosh on the floor at once. But these three have what it takes, IMHO. By NYE I think they...

    We aren't back

    This sounds about right. We lost to two teams that are not bad. They were definitely not bad losses. We will improve as our open shots start to fall like the should. Our defense will improve. Stay away from bad losses & we will be ok.

    Hawks ready to take on Hokies

    Except that we lost that game... Gatens was taken out that game. He did not play so well. Marble on the other hand, looked like an All-American.... My concern is the interior scoring. That is not so good.

    Biggest Challenge of Hiring an Offensive Coordinator Under KF

    I think you are right, and that getting a young talent would just not work with KF. Greg Davis' hands were tied. The guy has ran so many different sets in the past, that he would have known/wanted to change it up in early September when we saw that the offense was not clicking... Same with...

    broken record

    I would like to see AC, GO & PI all get a lot of PT this non-conference. I think it would go a long way for us in the B1G season. We will need them at some point because of fouled & fatigue. Just like the WSU game....

    Pretty Concerned

    Exactly. WSU is good. I'm not worried. This team will continue to grow throughout the year. Getting more time on the floor for AC will help him over that freshman hump. Ingram too. Gesell doesn't play like a freshman. If the refs hadn't taken MG out of the game early. It would have been a...

    Recruiting concerns

    This happened in Kinnick during our biggest weekend for recruiting. Am I surprised recruits are looking elsewhere because of our fans? Nope

    Shockers Drop Hawks, Expose Flaws

    Um...did you happen to see how many open shots we missed?! Make just a couple of those and the game is considerably different. Bogus fouls were another reason this did not go in our direction. MG & Woody got hosed. Including a couple fouls where they did not even touch the other player. Losing...

    I would not get very down on this loss

    We need to shoot a LOT better. And we will. Making 4 shots in one half will never happen again... For the season we are shooting worse than last year. I anticipate that we will be shooting better than last year by the start of the B1G season. At least that is what I expected before the season...

    marble=NBDL

    The Shockers are good. They will be playing in March, for certain. Their interior D killed us. Well, our missed shots killed us. We would have won had we made a third of those open shots... But their interior D is good...

    marble=NBDL

    I have heard that firsthand. Roy Sr really, Really needs to shut the f up.

    DeAndre Johnson coming back?

    I will buy the QB need. But we may have someone who can handle the position now. What we need are two starters - one at the Mike & one at safety. For Morris & Miller cannot tackle. They just can't. And they won't be able to learn how. They need replaced ASAP.

    For those still believing the lie, "we just didn't execute well."

    Spend the $20 million on recruits. We will win.

    Nic Shimonek and other recruits

    A lot of schools are having players start college early & play in spring practice, before the normal freshman start. Any chance some of our recruits may do this? The QB position is one position that would benefit greatly from an early start. Having Nic start early would not hurt.... Notice my...

    Alston vs. Morris

    Morris has had his chance. He has proven he cannot take a good angle, nor tackle well. Put him on the DE. Or bench. Give Alston a shot.

    Do we not practice in CHA???

    It seems like a foreign place. Yet our practice facilities are attached to the same building?! It would seem like a foreign building, if they do not shoot in there on a regular basis. Damn this sucks

    Coach Fran has a "Bob Knight" kind of basketball mind

    I could definitely have a beer with Fran. Bob Knight too. Just won't go hunting with him...
