My guess is the same as R2u.

Gameday!

Sullivan with be 6th man of the year. Mark it down.

It will be interesting to see if any changes have been made to our defensive schemes. We basically played team defense like we were an AAU team last year scheme wise, and it played a huge part in how bad a season we had.

Just basic things like not helping off the other teams best shooters, forcing the ball handler into help instead of letting him drive to the weak side of the defense, playing fundamentally sound pick and roll defense where both defenders are on the same page... All things you would not see in a well coached high school game, we failed to do all season. I hope to god the coaching staff did some self scouting and made some changes, because I worry they are of the mindset that "gee we were a .500 ball club just because Nick Norton got hurt." and we are going to see the same poor coaching we saw last year.

Our newly elected mayor Randall Woodfin is a Morehouse alumnus.

I wonder if he'll be in attendance?

I agree on all counts, though I am trying to have a positive outlook as we head into season two of the Ehsan era. Norton's injury was certainly devastating, but it became the catch-all excuse for everything that went south last year. But there were many more problems than that, including woeful defense (despite, or perhaps because of, the "Blockingham" debacle). I am holding out hope that year one was a good learning experience for Ehsan and the staff, and that major adjustments are made.

I would go Freshman and Sophomores to start and put the others in the second half to see the reaction since the game doesn't count.

Among southern coworkers in the Bham City School System, saying "I am a Morehouse Man" (like Oscar Jones) was equal to saying "I am a 'Yalee', or I am a 'Ha'vrd' Man". It carried great prestige for the speaker.

Well, Morehouse is the prestigious college of the traditional schools. Comparision is Harvard and Yale for the traditional Schools. You should sit in a class and see what they teach (I had a close friend who never came Back after that education)

Is this game on the radio or is the audio streamed anywhere?

Exhibitions often aren’t broadcast. I’ll be checking the Blazer IMG Sports Network at tip time to make sure

(All Access says there is audio, and the "Event is starting" a minute ago...so far nothing for me

i got no audio...but looks like MHC scores the first 4 points. Cokley scores the next 4
