Cam Van Winkle-funny stuff. Cam wasn’t sleeping. On the contrary, he probably spent many sleepless nights trying to figure out how to get these guys to understand to play as a TEAM and the convincing wins will come. One-on-one play will only fill up an individual stat sheet, produce 50 point ugly wins, and 20+ point blow-outs. Now that he is playing primary 2guard and secondary point, there is balance. These guys are starting to look like they are having fun. YEAH!!!

[...] for entertainment purposes only see UNCW as a five-point favorite. Michael Litos sees it as a five-point spread the other way. Ken Pomeroy likes the Hawks 76-67 and gives them an 82 percent chance of [...]

After seeing the JMU @ Drexel game in person this past week, I find it hard that we go down to UNCW and steal this one.

This JMU team has the talent to win these games but they are truly lacking the last few ounces of drive, heart, and inspiration to take them over the top. Frankly, I think Brady is out of answers to get that drive out of them.

Also, by playing Alvin Brown on Wednesday,(who I believe is in Brady’s dog house and/or being overlooked so he will transfer), Brady certainly set a message to the rest of the team as he was at wits end the other night.

Since you’re in the comparing game…

2005-2006 Patriots compared to 2009-10 team (yeah, I shouldn’t go here – but, I’m a dreamer…and will one senior on the roster, I can afford to look ahead):

G Tony Skinn…G Andre Cornelius (both speedy sparkplugs, good outside shots – not sure about Andre’s punching ability yet)
G Lamar Butler…G Luke Hancock or maybe Isaiah Tate (both smooth players, can hit the three, can rebound, pass, dunk…classy, good team kids – often play better than expected of them)
G Folarin Campbell…G Cam Long (tall guards, leaders – or they should and can be, both can be inconsistent, both can pass, shoot, rebound)
F Jai Lewis…tough one…since Mike Morrison starts…Lewis’s build is close to freshman Johnny Williams (but, Williams may be slimmer and end up better)
F Will Thomas…F Ryan Pearson (both showed promise early and were regular starters and leaders by their sophomore years; both were considered short for their positions, but their determination and grit makes them appear taller; both have the incredible ability to make shots that look ugly, but go in, both all-CAA or will be…)

Cam Van Winkle. Funny, funny man. I’m a little bit worried about a slip-up for Mason vs. Towson or UD…but, we’ll see. FYI…everyone, on the count of three…”OHHHH…we’re halfway there….”
