If it's Barber making the decision, he will go for the name. It's what LIBERTY does.

I'm not so sure I agree... Rocco wasn't a "name" at the time of his hiring.

And there you go making the biggest mistake you can on these subject: Barber was hired a month after Rocco. Doc hired Rocco.

I think that we are ALL trying to forget that episode

Sort of like the Rich Kotite era for Jets fans

Sorry, I only have a player for Coach Green's team. And she already has an offer on the table from George Mason's coach Jeri Wiley :D

Truthfully I think this year's team has talent. When Antwan Burrus gets back next week they will be able to score better I believe. They need to take better care of the basketball and attack more on offense outside of 10 seconds left on the shot clock to keep the defense honest. It seems Liberty gets very few if any "easy" points. You can't win at this level only averaging 52ppg. Twan and Tomasz will make them a better offensive team. 2 more guys that can put the ball in the hoop. I still think this season could end up being ok.

I agree completely, Scar. We have some terrific spot-up shooters that will benefit greatly from an inside game. We also need to manage pressure much better. That's coachable and I'm confident we'll show improvement.

That was an impressive outing for Evan, as much for the 5 assists and one turnover as the 29 points. Up to now he had been having a disappointing season to say the least, shooting a lot for a very poor %. We saw a few games like this when he was here. Remember when he almost singlehandedly beat Winthrop at the Vines? We also saw a lot of mediocrity and selfish play, so we´ll see how this plays out for ASU. You have to believe the fan base there is feeling a lot better now about the decision to sign him.
