Ateam/College BBall
 
I know you are a huge fan.

As a diehard Tarheel fan, I have not been this excited in forever. I know we were solid 2 years back in winning it all....but I'm telling you...this year is gonna be unreal for us.

Hansbrough is gonna be a STUD this year.
Looking forward to ReyShawn to having a monster senior year....incredibly athletic.
Bobby Frasor will rock solid at point....the kid can flat handle the pill and with a year under his belt, he will be the team leader this year.
Ginyard splitting time between shooting guard and small forward...

and an UNREAL incoming class....


Opening the season tomorrow night in the NIT vs. Sacred Heart.

Also a huge fan of UNC Kev. I've been following their freshman guard
Wayne Ellington since he was Fr. in high school. As a Fr. he scored
450 points and drained 32 points against the team I help coach when he was a freshman at Daniel Boone High School. He then transferred to Episcopal Acad. in Philly and was a star for Epicopal and led the team to 20-0 record and non-public league title. His teammate at Episcopal Gerald Henderson was also an outstanding player and is on the Duke team. Hopefully Ellington can step right in become a major contributor for the HEELS. This Ty Lawson also
looks like player coming from the powerful Oak Hill Academy Stable.

Sauc....it is mind boggling thinking of the year we could have.

I look for Frasor to have a huge year at the point. As big as a year that Tyler can and most likely will have, Frasor will be the key IMO. Absolutely critical that you have someone calm and cool and able to be a leader on the floor at the end of ballgames...and Bobby will step up huge this year.

It will be nice to see this team stay together
after this year because they have chance to be
a powerhouse for a couple of years. They have two big
games right after each other the Big Ten/ACC Challenge
game against Ohio St. and a game against Kentucky both
at home that are key to succesful early season run.

I'm gonna try to also follow The Lady Tarheels. I see that
their #2 in the preseason poll. Their led by So. forward Rashanda
McCants whose older brother Rashad was a pretty good player
for UNC. It would be nice to see the Men's and Women's team
both win the ACC Title

You ALL need to recognize
 
not only the MVC this year but the SOUTHERN ILLINOIS SALUKIS....

We will be ranked in the top 15 for MOST of the year this year as we are going to DEMOLISH Arkansas in 11 days, and they are only playing us because they are getting FORCED to play us.

Remember when Gary Williams said that nobody from the MVC was calling him, the Missouri State coach has called him every week since he said that, and hasn't heard from Gary since.

You can already mark one final four team down, which will come from the MVC baby......and most likely the beloved SALUKIS

I hope you are counting one of those losses in Evansville this year. If it happens (again might I add) definitely hurt in the NCAA pool no matter who you are

DOH!

My sisters boyfriend is a huge Syracuse Fan, so i started to look
at their schedule and it completly criminal what they get away with.
First of all their first 15 games are in the state of New York and
secondly every game except two are not at home, one at Canisius
University and another at MSG against Oklahoma St. They Don't
leave NY until Jan. 07, 2007. Of these 15 games they play one ranked
team in Pittsburgh who are way overrated, and a pretty good team
from the MVC in Wichita St. and to O.K. teams in Ok St. and Hofstra.
They schedule almost as bad as Notre Dame football has done this year

SU plays in the Big East, they do not need to schedule hard non-conference, they will be playing the best teams in the country from January to March...

Kev,
I Just noticed they redshirted freshman forward William Graves an
outstanding freshman from NC, who was high school player of
year in NC. Graves Will be able to practice with the team.

GPK I know your a huge Heel fan and although I hate them as much as Kansas for home state reasons (born and raised in MD) and went to Missouri but let me let you in on a little secret that wont be a suprise to anyone but maybe you, the only Point Guard that matters for the Heels is Tyson Lawson he is a beast and I think he will start from the first game he might be the best pure PG Carolina has had in many years!!!

Pat....I have read all about Lawson. I think they will both do a fantastic job and they will actually be on the court at the same time for periods of time too. I still think Frasor is the floor leader this year.
