Provides a good reminder of how spoiled we are as JMU fans, it is rare for one our teams to be "bad".

I watched one game, Boston College, we looked bad.

Hey, the "curse of the Lefthander" is not that far in the rear view mirror. Don't remind us to look back.

Saw a guy at the tailgate this weekend that talked to Byington who told him we have more talent but less depth than last year. He said he felt we were 10 deep last year, this year maybe 7-8. Injuries could play a big role in our success or lack thereof if that proves to be true.

Edwards has a large brace on his right hand in the video JMU just posted of SBC media day.

Only 10 days away from hoops season and the most wonderful time of the year when Football and Basketball crossover for several weeks.

During his press conference, Coach didn’t sound too confident in the defense at this point

Hopefully Edwards will be healed and ready for a full season, especially against Michigan State.

Coach has indicated this may be his most talented team, but not as deep. We can’t afford a number of injuries, especially to a player of Edwards caliber.

Article in DNR where Byington says team lost lateral quickness, and he needs a “by” in from everyone on defense otherwise they won’t be as good as all the preseason hype thinks they will be. Likes the motor of Horton who he thinks can fill the holes on defense left by the grad/transfers from ‘22-‘23 team.

Another DNR article on hoops today and we are T-5 and counting until the big Michigan State game.
The article is about Friedel and how he slumped last year compared to his track record at South Dakota State.
Gotta have the 3 baller return to form if this team is going to have a chance to win the Sun a belt tourney.
What I saw last year was constant rushing from him. Just take the shots that are open and pass up the ones that aren’t. No need to be quick draw McGraw and get your stroke all jacked up.

3 point shooters make good teams great when they are hitting 40%+
