Hopefully we play so well that the bench gets a lot of playing time. I'm really looking forward to this basketball year.
The other bad news is we don't start the season until November! I'm ready now!!!
With the addition of Brown, this could be a really good team this year!
Go Dawgs!

2010-2011 VERBAL COMMITMENTS:
Holton Hunsaker FR
D.J. Wright JR
Josh Brown JR
If the 13th Scholarship is re-instated, we can sign a total of 6 next year. Hopefully the 3 commitments listed above all sign in November.
I'm wondering if Coleby was the last change or will there be another before camp opens...
:bigcry:
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
Our success in 2010-2011 likely depends on whether and to what extent hunsaker, brown, and wright show up and contribute. based on wright's track record (lsu, tech, utah juco, california juco, etc.), the odds are against us for him every playing in Ruston.
That's a bit misleading...It is really LSU and Tech. They two jucos are becuase of us, not him constantly changing his mind on where he wants to play.
Are we moving him in hopes of keeping bigger schools away?
i'll bet you a coke though that he doesn't end up in ruston though. I hope I end up buying.
I don't have much hope of ever seeing Wright in a Tech uniform.
I think you and TD123 really need to start a support group.
I too will be surprised if he ever makes it to Tech.
I wish I had 1 oz of Juice's optimism.
Wright wont make it.
Why do you say Wright won't make it? What are you basing this on?
Haha. Bare with me. I'm not calling anybody out.
What blows my mind is the utter melt down we saw on the football forum after an 0-2 start, yet the basketball teams performance/mass layoffs (not from the bad economy) the past two years have been EMBARRASSING, but we somehow still remain optimistic about basketball.
I'm not a pessimist. I've believed from the get go that we will win 7 wins in football, 6 at the least. Rupp has shown me the past two years that he has absolutely no clue what he is doing. No, I can't provide details, only a 6 win season and a just below .500 season. Yes, Richard left the cupboard bare, but we've stocked it full of rotten food. Just look at how many players have been dismissed.
I hope I'm wrong. Even if we have a good season this year 3 of our top 4 players are graduating. Only 1 of them will have been here longer than 2 years.
As for DJ Wright. Lets run through his history: Signed with LSU, Signed with Tech, forgot to take his ACT will be here in the winter quarter, somehow doesn't make it in his winter quarter, goes to JC - looks good, now at another JC. 4 schools in two years, 2 of which he didn't even make it to campus. This guy is donedy.
I do need a support group, and I think we all will after this season.
