Middle Tennessee's non-conference schedule 'more difficult' than last season

This should be another fun season.

This should be another fun season.

And I can't help but believe that we maintain play at a high level. Need two newbies and the transfer to step up. Love the non conference schedule!

I have so much more confidence in Kermit being able to sustain success than I do in other coaches we have.

It all hinges in the development of Gamble and Thomas. We need another big man beaides Walters. I personally think Gamble will not do much in his career. It does seem like he has improved one bit since he has been here.

Thomas had a lot of hype last year. If we can get some good minutes out of him, we may be okay.

A little disappointed we couldn't continue the the VCU series.

In addition to needing Gamble to explode and Thomas to meet the hype I am hoping that King, in his last chance, shows that the 4+ star rating out of high school wasn't a fluke. As for the other newcomers I'm expecting the freshmen Shelton-Szmidt and Massenburg to have nice careers even with their 2 star ratings but I don't know what to expect early. Not sure I'm sold on the two JUCO's but time will tell.

Shelton was a huge get. Dont let his 2- star ranking fool you. I am very excited to see what he can do
