Men's Basketball vs UALR

I like the way things are changing around this joint. In the past, we had players we thought should be NBAers. It took outsiders to tell us we were wrong. Now, we have outsiders telling us we have NBA prospects, and we're trying to deny it.

Neither Elfrid or Shawn are flashy. And neither play with attitude. It makes their otherwise high end talent look unsuspecting. I could care less if others think it's an excuse, but this team is one solid slasher with some size, attitude and athleticism from being a very good starting 5 that would walk right through the SBC and beyond.

If you know Paul then you would know that he would not post that about himself. After all the mediocrity we've had to endure for the (almost) last decade; it needed to be said. During the very short time that he was our recruiting coordinator how about Ross Mouton,Adam James,Bryan Hamilton,Chris Cameron,Dwayne Mitchell,Orien Greene,Tirus Wade,etc. He's never really been acknowledged for any of the success we had at that time. But I know, I was there.

I'd say he's doing exactly what a good player should do in a bad conference.

While numbers don't lie, they can definitely mislead. I hate to use the "eye test" argument, but, I almost have no choice. And I'm not the only one.

Agreed. Hence my optimism about next year. I know Crazy gets annoyed when we use that justification, and I get his point, but we have some talent and athleticism coming in. And I think, just at the right time.

And your opinion is set in gold I suppose.....So I guess I will have to assume that you know what you are talking about. You see it all amounts to every one has an opinion of their own. So I will take your opinion about me for what it's worth and say nothing about yours. Because it's your opinion......
