Nice work! The graphics remind me of some I saw on this board. If you made this, my compliments.

That was pretty well done. Nice highlights over the last few years' tourney games.

eh, they'll be lucky to finish in the top 3 of the AAC

Can we get a participation trophy?

Ther guy with the tipped pass, steal, and breakaway dunk around the 2:20 mark is worth mentioning. The KU player he beat to the ball was Kelly Oubre, an NBA lottery pick that summer. The Shocker got the ball and the dunk was Zach Brown, just a Fr at the time. He'll be starting as the defensive stopper at SF this year as a Sr.

I know you think you can handle the weight. If you actually can, I'm all for it.

Go for it. Do it. I'd love having another couple of conference teams joining us in the top-10. What a great league!

Wow that blew my mind-a real Shocker

Really happy to have you guys in the conference and looking forward to this coming season.

Nice

I know things wont be as easy here as was in your previous conference but just keep racking up those W's and represent the American well, Shockers

It'll only be a 3/4 replica. Tulane gets the full-size participation trophy for basketball every year...just a fair warning.

Will admit that I have not see this past year's Wichita team. Not only are they athletic, but they play smart, unselfish basketball. Big get for the AAC. I'm sure the reverse is true also. Again, welcome to the league.

Welcome Shockers !!!!

Yes they do. Greg Marshall is a fantastic coach. IMO, one of the best in the country. Great at evaluating talent and in game adjustments.

Don't look for big stats from any Shockers. 12 - 14 ppg will typically lead the team. Marshall usually plays a deep rotation that wears some teams down. The last 5 minutes of the first half and of the game are sometimes fresh legs against guys bending over to catch their breaths.

Another reason for lower stats is that everybody shares in stats. Players wanting to pad their own will find a spot at the far end of the bench. Finding a seat in the locker room at home for road games isn't out of the question.

Only one player has averaged better than 15 ppg as a Shocker under Gregg Marshall...Cleanthony Earlty averaged 16 as a senior.
