Great write-up on the main page John! Ready for this season to tip tomorrow night!

Excellent article.

One suggestion. There should be a link on Ramblermania's Board index page to Ramblermania's home page. If there is one already, I couldn't find it.

Good job as usual John !! I do eel though that we will beat out Ill St and Evansville for a twoo place upgrade over your analysis.

Memory jog !!!! Do you recall when we sat together and watched Butler--top seed --go down in the HL conf tourney---We almost got to the dance--Wrong Bailey scored. Now--we be older but still hopeful !! HL changed the rules--first of many favoring Butler.

GO RAMBLERS !!!

I don't see how the Birds finish above 9th this year.

ISUr has more healthy and talented bodies than we do right now. I was surprised that Milton Doyle was DRESSED, let alone started tonight. I was even more surprised at how actually talented he is, what a great basketball IQ he has, and his coolness. Knowing this, maybe I'd have us at 7th ahead of ISUr, but I thought he was six weeks from playing, and only from the bench. On the other hand, we were completely outmatched in the paint with Nick Osbone out with a concussion. That's a huge hole for us.

We had a terrible rotation where we went small that we were outscored 10-2 in a matter of seconds. Brutal.

When our team is able to do what they're supposed to do, we're pretty damn good. When 6'4" Christian Thomas has to guard 6'8" 230-pound Matt Tiby because Nick Osborne is out with a concussion and O'Leary has 3-4 fouls, we're in trouble.
