We have an excellent talented team and should do very well this year.

Having said that, we have 4 new players. We also have Gates and O'Mara that will be called upon to contribute more than in prior years, and, oh yes---a tough schedule that includes quite a few other good teams.
I think we will be seeing some terrific efforts from these young men, but perhaps will need to be patient as they develop into the team that they have the potential to become.

26+6=1

Hopefully Gates will fully recover from his knee surgery and be able to step his contribution this along with Big Sean.
Gaston and Bernard as new "veterans" will need to adjust to higher level of competition from their previous colleges.
Need these 4 guys to help replace the production lost with Jalen, Remy and Big Game.
And hope Myles legal issues have been resolved and he can earn his way back on the team.

Fr Graham is waiting in the long line to get wanded. Looks suspicious.

this wanding is getting old and ticking more than a few people off. Seems like X is spending a lot of time trying to piss fans off. Even 45 minutes before game the line are becoming long.

Wanding, Cincinnati de rigueur.

i'm not sure how they are going to handle this situation. i got there 25 minutes prior to game time. took me 20 minutes to get in.

i understand the safety but then you have to find more ways to allow fans to enter the arena. 6 lines to let 10,000 people in just doesn't work. can't wait until Jan/Feb when we're waiting for 20-30 minutes in 0 degree weather.

Not to worry. The NCAA took steps in 1985 with the shot clock to prevent ball freezing.
