Upcoming Week

What's on tap for the weekend? A couple of potential big games that's what.

Coach T faces Syracuse and the 1st test as the head coach at DU. A lot of people questioned Bill Tierney's move to Denver, I think it was a great move for him personally and for the game itself. Let's face it, in other sports when coaches have done all they can at their respective organization/college it's a blessing in disguise to move along and start fresh. This is exactly what coach T was looking to do when he made his move; a new opportunity to be a part of the growth of the game in a booming area (have you seen the attendance at Outlaw games) and live out west in a great city and most importantly coach with his son Trevor. Good luck Coach T, knock the orange off early and start your new era making some noise!

Loyola is @ Navy, should be a good one. Loyola is tough, they ended last year on a role and have some returning players that can get it done. Navy is always disciplined and like machines, Coach Meade has those guys well conditioned and ready to execute his game plan to a tee. Notre Dame goes down to blue heaven to test their skills vs. the mighty Dookies. We'll see what ND is made of early in the year, if they can get the W they may be worth all the hype...we'll see. My last big game of the weekend is Delaware at UMBC, a lot of folks think UD is the real deal this year, they have a bunch of seniors who are have grown together since they're final four finish vs. the Hop four years ago. Word on the street is Dave Metzbower (former Princeton long time asst) has been very influential in where they are at this point in the season. We shall see what becomes of this one as UMBC is always there making a run at the tourney come May.
