Has anyone been over at Savage Arena this summer to see any of Men's Basketball Players in Open Gym? I am curious to see how the 5 incoming Freshmen, who are in Summer School, look, as well as the 2 redshirt freshmen (Saunders and Smith). I am also wondering if M. Jackson is back in the gym playing after his major shoulder surgery from last March. With the lack of an experienced back up point guard, I think his "health" is going to be a major factor in whether or not the Rockets are going to be successful this upcoming season.

yes, that is the big story. this team will be luke and the jacksons. if those 3 all have big years we could win the mac. there's minutes to be won and a nice group of young players to audition. should be a fun team. don't appear to be the team to break the ncaa hex with the key injury to edu, but there's a potentially good team here. the usually run informal scrimmages in the fetterman upstairs gym during the day.

I stopped going to watch summer games after my assessment that Delino Deer would be the MAC Defensive Player of the Year some day. I sort of agree with pono (as always) but I think the transition of Spencer Littleson from fourth or fifth option from distance to a go-to-guy from 3 point range will be a major element.

I sit right behind the bench and remember so many times an assistant leaping to his feet and screaming “Delino, NOOOOO!”
