initial thoughts:
-tough start for sure with @WVU (never play well), 2 with Nova in the span of a week, and G-town at home
-Next 4 we could go 3-1
-3 games on the road in a row with Cincy, St. Johns, and Seton Hall.
-Hopefully we've jelled as a team before the last 2 games Ville and ND at home. win over the Ville at home might solidfy our NCAA resume.
So what kind of expectations do we have for this team? Is 0.500 a legitimate goal to shoot for, or is it shear optimism. Sure we have Lazar to lean on (like we did with Novak 4 years ago), but aside from that the experience with the rest of the team is a HUGE dropoff (Butler, Acker and Cubillan). Our experience or lack-there-of at the center position is the most concerning to me. What happens when Lazar picks up 3 fouls in the 1st half? We are going to need the young guns to grow up fast! I look towards the juco's Buycks and Johnson-Odom for the most support, and hope that 1-2 of the freshman can contribute substantially from the get-go (likely Cadougan and Maymon).
Early prediction (and therefore subject to change): 7-11 in Big East play
Ooh, I love it when you talk NCAA Resume.
I like that the Bucky game is at 4:00. Gives plenty of time for getting up there and getting "prepped" for the game. I am also having visions of a Sunday afternoon at the Shoemaker Center, battling a Skyline & Jameson induced belly ache, while watching MU smack around Jeff Garcia's Bearcats.
Aw, damn, I just realized I have to miss the Villanova game. Damn. Who gets married in January anyways?
You're getting married again?
You wish.
No, not me. But I am in the wedding so I'm thinking they'll notice if I'm missing.
I suspect that the Bearcats will be much improved this year....no pushover. I would be happy to come out of that game with an unexpected W. Skyline for everyone!
all fuck it to hell. I go on my honeymoon and miss the G'town and Nova home games. Why the fuck couldn't we start with Rutgers & DePaul at home? Cocksuckers.
Actually D3, the correct question is, why are you scheduling your honeymoon in the middle of the Big East regular season slate? That's a you problem.
PS. Can I have your tix?
Because August is a blast furnace in Spain and Mrs D3 has school during the fall. Not much of a choice. I need to give Gunt first dibs on my tix since he is my seat-mate.
E$/D3 - feel free to take the ticket...I have 2 already for both games, so E$ if you want D3's ticket it's yours...if not, let me know and I can unload them.
I can't make the Grambling game. That ticket is availabe but I think Mrs. Reid might have first dibs. I also assume Reid will not be in attendance since that is opening weekend of killing deer with guns. That is why I will miss.
Hell yeah to Cincy! Skyline! Jameson! A quick trip to Louisville to see Pauly Shore!
You just won a fucking SNUGGIE!!!
