I know there are some other sports that are upset (mainly baseball/softball), but this is much needed for the basketball program. The locker rooms in WRJ Coliseum aren't the greatest, and having to share the main floor for practice is a high school problem, not a D1 basketball program problem. HUGE for the basketball program, but I do feel for baseball, softball, and soccer. If the athletic fee would have passed, there would have been so much more money to go around for those programs. I think the investment in basketball will pay dividends for other sports, just not as quickly as the athletic fee would have. Regardless, I am super excited as this is a huge step forward for the basketball program. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topher805 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Thank God the season is back! I'm a degenerate enough to have watched Green Bay/Wisconsin-Litheran at 11:30 this morning and Buffalo/St. Francis at 3:00. Now for the good games!

TxFight Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Duke just named their score against the pre-season #2 team. Kansas might go down as one of the first #1 ranked teams to win and drop in the polls. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topher805 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 SFA looks bad in a win over Southwestern Assemblies of God...Need to clean it up with a trip to Coral Gables to face Miami on Tuesday. Word has it, starting PG Aaron Augustin may be back in the next week or two from an elbow injury suffered against A&M. Starting SG John Comeaux also may be back in a couple of weeks from a knee injury that was thought to have ended his season...Starting PF TJ Holyfield is put for the year with a shoulder injury.

That was 3 key cogs that kills the depth SFA could've had. Young ones going to have to learn on the fly and get ready to uphold the standard.

He’s a great person and has had a couple of decent seasons, but has underachieved as a whole imo and isn’t recruiting well at the moment. The current roster is sad. I believe he needs to go and new life brought into the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on paper, this roster had the look of being a lot closer to Underwood's last year as far as post season production. Still a long ways to go, but hard to see them matching that, especially without Holyfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonSwanson Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Serialle is a pleasant surprise for the Jacks, especially for a freshman. If they can get their guards back they will be fine. Next year they will really kill it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just have to make sure we dont lose Holyfield as a grad transfer (Feel pretty confident we've seen the last of him at WRJ as a player) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next years team will be great if the guard position is strengthened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxFight Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 SFA is going to be really good if Augustin and Comeaux get back to full speed by atleast early in the conference schedule. Crazy athletic, YOUNG, and only going to get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher805 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Augustin should be back in the next couple of weeks. Sadly he will miss the Miami game tomorrow, but I would really like to see him back when we head to Belfast. IF we beat San Francisco, we will need all hands on deck for Buffalo...John, as long as we can have him back by Baylor (Dec. 18) or even Alabama (Dec. 30) I think we are good. Most of the conference hasn't looked good during non-conference, so getting healthy would be the biggest key to our season and postseason hopes...
