Sorry to hear you have such low expectations about this coming year. I must say I am not a fan of JJ's style of play BUT I am excited and expecting a pretty darn good year coming up. After talking to all the coaches last week we are going to play Brandon and Porter together. The starting line up is going to be Caver at point with BJ at either 2 or 3 and Brandon and Porter. They are still uncertain who the other starter will be. They are also planning on possibly playing a 4 guard with one big rotation. This would be the two freshmen guards with Cavers backup( transfer from last year) and either Green or Haynes( one will start and one will play on this team) along with Kah. Needless to say this second group will play a lot of zone defense. That's right ZONE defense. The reason for this is this group is not ready to play defense but can shoot the ball well. It sounded like a change from what has been a boring product. I am actually excited about this upcoming season. Should be a lot of fun and who knows.If it works we could be good enough to go dancing. I fully expect the naysayers to chime in with the usual no way this club can make the NCAA playoffs but this is by far the best group of players we have had in JJs time here at ODU.

Let me ask you this, how many players on this years team do you think would start for VCU?
