I am going to just try to enjoy this season. There is no need to worry about rankings, wins and losses or even the SoCon regular season. No reward for winning the regular season now so just try to finish in the top 6 to avoid the extra game and see what happens in the tourney. Right now I think we are no better than 4th and that maybe high, Hopefully we will get healthy and better as the season goes along. I think right now we should be happy with a plus .500 season. We had our season last year and I am happy we had it while I was still here. No one can take that away and I can go back and relive it time and again. Looking forward to the documentary too.

It's still WAY to early to say much of anything...

Getting Williams back will help...

Everything we do this season needs to be done with building for next year in mind as we will get everyone back...

Our mentality should be, don't panic just keep putting in the work ;)

Yep, really miss AW. He should be one of our leadng scorers. Worried about Hughey. Tried to play today but only could play 9 minutes. Those type of injuries can be hard to get over.

Watched a little of future opponent Tulane last night. They are really big and athletic. They have some big guards.

Why did you put this here instead of in the Coastal thread?

Because this is the current active hoops thread, I move on from old threads once a game is done ;)
