Completely new roster and coaching staffJust curious. Usually they do something every off season.
I want to say the floor got redone again but I might have dreamt that lol...
It was done.
Just an observation - Not sure a cuss word from a coach has been heard in Murphy Center yet. Was at a practice a week or two ago, and did not hear a single cuss word from the coaches.
How is the team looking Space? Do you care to give us a breakdown of what stood out to you?
You mean we aren't guaranteed to go 0-11 in out of conference, as some vocal complainers have been saying?!This was an early practice, still a lot of teaching and explaining. It seemed like the guys were attentive and receptive to the coaching. It is hard for me to tell how good the team is going to be with the players going up against each other.
Green has a beautiful shot, Junior looked like he was going to contribute. Donovan looked good. A lot of the focus was on defense and how to attack defenses. I don't think we will be as weak inside as everybody thinks.

I don't know about a "huge leap" from the Big South et al to C-USA, but I'm firmly convinced that there is a substantial difference overall in quality of talent and depth in rosters.
Well, I finally caught some of Andy Herzer's comments on the radio the other day regarding his outlook for the team this year. While no outlooks or predictions are guaranteed, I did find his comments to be a little disheartening. Don't get me wrong, I haven't been expecting a 1st place finish this season. I have not been expecting the worst season either. Reasonably, Herzer seemed to think MT would do good to get to .500 this season with this tough schedule. Many of us on here have expressed similar expectations.
Herzer's seeming focus on some of the areas I've been concerned about are what troubled me a little. While some of Herzer's comments were explicit, some of his suggestions seemed to be implicit. Or at least that's how I took it. Regarding the concern about lack of size and strength, Herzer seemed to suggest that it's not clear if CNM really understands the size, strength, and toughness that is needed at this level in C-USA. That has been one of my main big concerns. CNM getting a decent sized forward to recently commit is a hopeful sign in my opinion. I just hope this season does not turn into a hard lesson on the need for good size and strength.
On somewhat related note, I saw on social media the other day where WKU just picked up another commit from a 6-10 4-star recruit. Good for the conference, but it won't be good for anyone if these elite recruits are landing in conference by way of some funny business up at WKU.
Dang, that little sequence there is Pete Maravich-level.
I assume your Herzer's comments came from Monte's "AllSportsTalk". The show at one time was appointment listening for me (on WGNS podcast; I don't live close enough to pick it up over the air) but for several reasons I find myself listening less and less. Regardless, I would like to listen on those occasions when Hertzer or McDevitt is the guest. I would appreciate someone who listens telling me the dates either is on so I can make the effort to listen to the podcast. I don't want to miss any discussion of MT men's BkB. Thanks
