I have no problem with this since it represents the backup plan and it is far better than playing a really bad (say 300+ rpi) D1 team since at least this game doesn't affect our rpi.

Baker is a maker, Cotton is a defensive taker, and FVV is our shaker. However, to go deep into the Dance, we will rely on our other players as well. We may not have to shorten our bench
as much against the tough teams we play as the Season progresses. Our foes will focus on stopping the 3 mentioned. However, on any given night, we will have several various players
step up depending on the match ups. Thus, we will become very difficult for scouting teams to understand who to prepare for against us inside or outside. Next, this team could be our best
defensive team not to mention our 3-point shooting will be very scary good in time when teams try to pack it in on our bigs.Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.

I think their will be no doubt after a few minutes, they won't take them lightly(marshal) won't let that happen,. and it will be good for the young guys to play against college players and get even more comfortable.We can't help it if people won't come in here to play us. This should give our freshmen a good chance to get more time under their belt, because we really are going to need big contributions from them. It's been awhile since we have really had to depend on this many freshmen at once. I figure it will be by comittee with Morris,Kelly, Nurger, Holland. Im thinking at least 30-35 point win. Like it's been said, no rpi hit

It's nice to have a DII program like theirs just across town. If they're any Newman fans in attendance I hope they are treated exceptionally well."It's amazing to watch Ron slide into that open area, Fred will find him and it's straight cash homie."--HCGM

This is great for Newman and WSU. It's exposure for their team and for us it's no drag on the RPI."Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should accomplish with your ability."

I like having the Newman game after a few of our non-con games. It allows Coach to fix some things we need to work on during a game that has no bearing on our season. It allows young guys to get in the game and to work on different line ups, gives guys rest if they need it.
