Ugh, Cotton jammed a couple of fingers on his shooting hand.

it's been taped up for the better part of a month

I agree Dan, we have guards that can match up with any trio. Now our front-court is the ? But I've always liked alittle mystery, and we have had ? marks every year and coach always seems to have the answer. We have very good young players, think back when we have had this kind of quality depth, and so young. their will be growing pains, but I don't think it will be because of nerves, and thats what I like, young players who are coachable and unafraid. You know they have to be or Marshall wouldnt have recruited them. Evan won't be the answer to th 4-spot, not long term, It will be by comittee like the post postion was last year. If these guys can give us 10-12 solid minutes every game (Wessel, Morris,Kelly,Nurger) we will be fine. We also need for Darius to be able to give us about 25-30 minutes and about 10pts and 6-8 rebounds a game...then we will be real fine....

Nick King, Memphis:

Paraphrasing: "We only lost by 15. We had a lot of turnovers. If we didn't have those, I think we would've won."

LOL.

We stand an excellent chance of moving into the top ten rankings as Miami beat #8 Florida Friday night ending their 33 game home winning streak. Only fair to say that FU was without four players

As it so happens, Angel Rodrigues, a former KS guard, scored 24 points hitting three consecutive 3 pointers near the end of the game for a total and 5.

Quotes like that make me wonder how bad it could have been if Gregg didn't call off the dogs in the second half. 30 points maybe?

We were absolutely on our way to making it 30 at one point, we were rolling and they were beat.

I know we think very highly of Cotton, but I'm not sure even he could do this: "extending a 35-29 lead to 44-29 on a jump shot by Tekele Cotton".

[Rocky Mountain Shock]

His dunk early the second half should have been a nine pointer.

Saw that. He obviously still doesn't have his head in the game.

I held up a "10" card!!

Actually, most of the judges were waving 10's, RMS. I believe it was the Russian and East German who only scored it a 9.
