.......about 5 bballers stopped by our ex player tailgate tent and we were very impressed with the bodies...the fats are slimmer and the skinniest are a lil muscled up.....pretty impressive pound differentials from last year,,,,,along with this it will be interesting how we play #s 1-5 with our height and substitution choices!!!

I noticed a lot of area schools are playing exhibition games this month for Hurricance Relief, did we try to get one as well? Since we played in Cuba earlier we were not allowed?

I'm on board with you, Alum. I'm so excited about this basketball season.
I don't agree with the sentiment that the team will have trouble jelling early. Remember, most of the newcomers were here last year practicing with the returning players. The lone true Freshman expected to get minutes is Russell.
I see big wins early and often. Don't be shocked if we upset Ole Miss in the first game.
Get your tickets people! We are in for an exciting year!

Ok, someone has either kidnapped CReb, or your account has been hacked brother. Your posting quality has gone through the roof in the last 3 weeks. Funny ____ right there.

He has done well lately.

If we are not expecting a HUGE with a capital Y year with this team, then what are we doing? To me this is the year we finally determine what level coach Marlin is.

Well , the way things have gone so far I need basketball to be a good life line untill the boys of summer take the field. I'm praying basketball will make the winter fun.

Cajuns will be ranked by mid season.

You see, this is how people work themselves into a frenzy around here. They set near-impossible expectations and get angry when we inevitably don’t reach them.

This is what’s going to happen this year. We’re (hopefully) going to have a great year. We’ll probably lose a few games we weren’t expecting to lose (because that’s basketball.) Given our strength of schedule we won’t have a particularly high RPI. Given our RPI we won’t get an at-large bid. And unless we manage to end up with only one or two losses at the end of the season we won’t be ranked.

Nearly impossible expectations? You’re back.

I've seen people on here with low expectations work themselves into even bigger frenzies. Frenzy'ing is not a condition of unrealized expectations. It's an individual emotional instability trait. You either have the frenzy gene... or you do not.

Men's basketball has gotten sad. Low SOS = low RPI = low ranking... just about no matter the record! That freaking sucks! (Frenzy gene just got triggered).

THAT'S why you're not going to basketball games anymore? Haha. Some people just look for ANY excuse. We're talking an extra 100 yards, man!

It's not the walking distance just the ease of getting in and out.
