Easy to see why Dook will play nobody on the road that they don't have to. HaHaHa.

Yeah, UNCG and WCU look strong. Sammy I think will come back to earth.

After the Citadel game it is clear to me that with contributions similar to that game from other players such as Foster Williams and anyone else will produce the balance we need to finish up there in the conference. We may have a well balanced physical team that can win in many different ways. I feel that we do and the next few games will give us an indication if that is true....

Remember that Samford's star point guard, Ques Glover, has been out injured for a while and has not played in their 3-0 conference start. He also missed at least 5 games during their 7 game non-conference losing streak. They are also missing at least two other key players including one who was a starter. I expect them to improve as their injured return to action.

Mercer vs. WCU was @ WCU. The crushed part is 100% accurate.
