"grind it out defensive approach"...are you talking about Liberty? Wow, Layer is definitely different from his predecessor.
Our offense is going to run out of our defense.

Isn't Perez a point guard, too?

You've a 6'4" forward and a 6'6" guard? That's an unusual combination.

Kyle is listed as a G/F. For at intents and purposes, with that lineup, he will be playing the four.

Now, if we were to take out one of the other guys (say the freshmen at the 2) and play McMasters (6'11) and Baker (6'9) at the same time, you could see Ohman move up and play the 2.

It's not like he has to create his own shot.
Yes, it is. But the first thing to go on a jump-shooter is his legs. If he's got to battle guys 3-4 inches and 30-40 lbs. heavier each night, he won't be as effective as a shooter.

For those listening tomorrow night (or Saturday for that matter), Nick Pierce will be on the radio doing the play-by-play since Jerry Edwards will be down in Boiling Springs for the football game.

I agree...Nick is a very good play by play guy. I think if he doesnt end up getting a job in a bigtime market Id like to see him replace Jerry Edwards when the time comes.

Nick is going to have some company on the air tomorrow night too! I am looking forward to it...I have to call the Saturday night game on TV too. I guess I need to start reading flamefans again to get my info LOL.

I know man. I have been more busy than ever at work and life in general. I have not been on FF very much but I plan on getting back in the mix now that hoops season is here.

And for those looking for newspaper coverage, my colleague Nathan Warters will be handling this one tonight, since he'll be in the area for the VT-Maryland game tomorrow.

I was wondering who Chris (Morris, our fine editor over at the fishwrap) sent up to do that game. He asked me to cover the Southern VA game tomorrow night.
