I'll be super pumped for this season if Lowe can land Chris Wright and JJ Hickson for next season.



But i'll only be slightly less than super pumped if he doesnt land them.

umm...yeah so hopefully the basketball team can bring us back up if the football season ends up sucking.

9/10/2006 1:32:45 PM

Haha every year we hope that the other sport will lift us up after a disappointing season.



Please for Andrew to announce that he is playing both. And is he really up to 7 foot now?

J.J. Hickson is supposedly coming for an official visit this weekend. We've got to show him lots of love and produce a great atmosphere.

10/11/2006 8:19:38 PM

goal is to make the tournament, if we do that, we've already surpassed the herb era

here's how i think we could do based on returning talent, of course this seems like nearly a whole new team, and a lot of the guys that will be seeing significant minutes and starting didn't get to play much last year, so it's kind of unknown how they'll do. they could be outstanding and flourish in Lowe's new offense, or perhaps not.

Wofford - W
Delaware State - W
Valparaiso - W
Gardner Webb - W
Michigan - W/L (tossup game; it's at home, and we don't really know how good Michigan may be)
@Virginia - L (i could see us winning this game though)
@West Virginia - L (perhaps our guys could use their exposure to the PO in helping beat WV though)
Savannah State - W
Mount St. Mary's - W
Alabama - W
@Cincinnati - W (two new coaches, i'll give Lowe the edge though b/c i believe in him)
East Carolina - W
UNC Wilmington - W
UNC Greensboro - W
Boston College - L
Clemson - W (home crowd helps us get the win)
@Wake Forest - W/L (WF lost a lot and has a very young team)
Duke - L (even though the crowd should be electric for this game)
Virginia - L
@Virginia Tech - L
North Carolina - L (see Dook game)
@Georgia Tech - L
@Miami - L
Maryland - W/L (does anyone remember what UMD returns? )
Virginia Tech - W/L (we should be in prime form by this time)
@North Carolina - L
@Florida State - L
Wake Forest - W
@Maryland - L

so 13-17 wins before going into the ACC Tournament.

10/15/2006 11:31:29 PM
