I think that ya'll ought to slow down just a bit and take a deep breath!!! It's gonna be a long season, in more than one way perhaps, and remember that good things take TIME!!! Kind of like this country's economy, took a long time to f-up and gonna take a good while to repair.....we didn't get in the situation, basketball wise, overnight....took a lot of piss poor decision making to get us to the point that we were in two years ago.....

: I think our program needs some higher

: at Wisc. Green Bay and a home win vs. Utah
: St., and I expect road wins at Pepp and LMU
