    I agree. They are a much better Team with Ellington. If we could have taken care of the Furman, Elon, and Tenn St Horn would not be in the position he is in. Hope he proves me wrong and can get some upset wins.

    It would be a smarter move to buy them now while the market is down. If indeed, a new coach is hired, and it is a big name kind of guy then you won't have as good of seating chart to choose from. Buy them now and lock them in. That is if you are anywhere near serious in what you stated. You don't have to go. Join the other 7,000 or so season ticket holders this year that are counted as being in the arena.

  • Very happy to see the team beat a team that they should handily. Great win and hope this gives them so momentum. Go gamecocks! While I may not be CDHs biggest fan I am very happy to see him and the team succeed.

    Wife and I were there. I am pulling for this team and it bothers me how little fans on this board could care about them. Something that wasn't talked about much is the lack of guard play we had the first 7 games. Williams and Ellington both on the court at the same time last night and it was a different team. Smith tries hard but just isnt very good and when jackson tries to help bring the ball up the court his game goes to crap. Our young shooters are getting better on defense and FINALLY our offensive scheme seems to actualy get people in scoring positions. The kids don't look so lost anymore. I think my Christmas wish for BigSpur is for all the negativity for the basketball team to stop. As much as the complainers and self proclaimed Genuis ADs on this board want to try, when they complain it doesn't change anything for the good.
    Merry Christmas

    Well said. The negativity is cancerous.

    then you'll continue to have incidents like the OSU game where visiting teams have bigger crowds.

    Would you rather keep the crowd at a couple thousand all the time?

    For some people they dont. Some people would rather be right about a team being bad then to see a teams progressions. Glad the entire fan base didn't act that way during our 0-21 football stretch. We would have just quit football all together.

    while I agree, it is pointless to argue with a ROCK... he will never understand what the true meaning of "fan" is....

  • I disagree with you about Smith. I don't think he should be the starting point guard for our team, but he can hold his own out there. He's hit some big shots this year and has the strength that is necessary to take the pounding you get out there. Richardson and Slawson are the two kids who were obviously over-recruited. I try not to ever talk bad about kids in our program, and I'm not knocking their effort, but I don't think they have the talent to compete on the high D-1 level.
