The burrito edge is clearly out there in recruiting circles. Would I be considered a booster if I started shipping burritos back from San Diego? Would put us on a whole different level.

75 points per game would be a top 25 scoring offense in the country. I get your overall point, but I don't know if we ever get to 75. Unless the rule changes have a huge effect.

I think people will be pleasantly surprised with Four a little this year as well. Not saying he is going to come out and score 20 all that often, but he'll bring a totally different dimension off the bench from what our starting guards have to offer.

Having Iverson eligible day one would be absolutely huge. That said, while I hope for the best, I am just going in assuming he won't win the appeal. These NCAA decisions seem to have no rhyme or reason to them.

Billy I kind of feel the same way. Just been keeping quiet around here some lately. I do think that some of the lack of excitement is because he is a guard. Of course there is always a bit of an unknown and risk involved with transfers, but I'll be excited if we end up getting Robinson.
