Why is that? Is that because we actually have a season to look forward to and the SHU fans are hibernating, waiting for St Isaiah to arrive?

If you want my $0.02, bet on the guy whose team needs someone to step in and help right away. So Hill and Copeland and maybe Lindsay won't get the time on the court that guys like IW and AD at SHU and Gilmore at Creighton will. In the case of Nova's 2 Top 100 players Booth and Bridges they will be stuck behind a McD's AA Sr. in Pinkston and a Top 50 pt guard who was 2nd in BE ROY. So we will not be needing their help right away. I would expect the others I mentioned might find similar situations.

First you said it was way too early, but now you seem to know what all these players are already gonna do. You're just another weak troll out for a stroll. Keep ya $0.02.

Yeah Ok Hall. Go back to drawing your little cartoon characters and wearing your little Pirate Halloween costume. Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!

If it's Rookie of the Year and not Freshman of the Year, I'd keep the name Rashaun Stimage in mind, who'll enroll as a Junior at DePaul.
