Welcome Back

Summer is over and the football team lost a critical game to Wake Forest on Saturday, it's time for basketball season.

I hope you like the changes around here and there are still more to come! Among the changes: new message board for all the fans to chat on during road games, polls, countdown timer, links to the opponents' sites and message boards.

It's been quite a summer in College Park:

almost all the coaches minus Coach Floyd treated the team like the Titanic and jumped off

Brenda is having twins just in time for the tournament. (Yes, there will be poll about naming the kids)

Lynetta Kizer has agreed to join the Terps in 09. Right now, she's the only one, but Terrapin Times tells me weekly that the next could be very soon.

Two recruits are already out for the season: Anjale Barrett and Kim Rodgers, both with leg injuries (we should insure all our recruits' legs before they step on campus - that's now three recruits in two years that can't play a minute of their freshman season because of injuries.)

Shay is no longer on the team and thanks to the great coaching of Patty Coyle Shay's ass found a permanent spot on the bench. (as did Ivory Latta's, which was great)

Duke hired a coach who likes to play zone on defense and who we have beaten in back-to-back seasons.
