in case anyone cares.. its buffalobills.com

What about when Flemmings left, did that not clear up an additional scholarship??

Tickets to the game go on sale to students June 20th

all I'm saying is wait until the whole recruiting process is done until you pass judgement.. its hard to say how this recruiting class is going to shape up this early.. coming from someone who claims to have extensive knowledge on the mean green basketball team, I figured you would know that many of J.J.'s key recruits signed well past the original signing day including Calvin Watson who didn't sign with UNT until July, Collin Mangrum wasn't signed until late May, Rich Young signed in late April, Ben Bell wasn't signed until late April, and even your old boy Roderick Flemmings didn't sign until early May.. See all i'm saying is that the recruiting process is on going, and I know you like to jump on J.J. anytime you see a chance but wait this out and when its done then we can decide to fire J.J. or not

sweet desoto is a 275 lb. DB??

No I would hope that he could use the tournament as a selling point, you are right, but do you not think he has?? He invited this guy to campus, its obvious he is trying to get these guys to go to school here, and not simply waiting for people to "fall in our laps".. I think that was a bad choice of words by Vito, a player that "falls into our laps" would be a walk on.. According to Rivals.com's articles about him J.J. has been in contact with him for awhile, and Thompson was really impressed w/ his visit.. He has made all but one of his visits, the rest is up to Tristan and whatever he thinks best for himself not J.J.

I don't know if you know much about the MVC, but Witchita State has been a pretty good team for a few years now including numerous trips to the NCAA tournament. All J.J. can do is try his hardest to recruit this guy which it seems he has since we are in the mix with a perinial tournament team. What else do you want him to do??

you can't judge a recruiting class this early, yes it would be nice to have alot of signings early, but basketball is different than football recruiting in that basketball players will take longer to make their decisions.. there are many good recruits still out there, esp. at the Junior college level.. I think J.J. will pull in a decent small forward type before the signing period is up, and then the J.J. haters will just have to find a new thing to rag him about

fire J.J.!!! he's never done anything good for us

i was there too.. bought $2 tickets and sat behind the mariner dug out .. can't beat that.. it was a slow moving game, I just wish the rangers could have pulled it out

Tickets for students will be available June 20th.. just found this out today while at the spring game

this guy seems to be a pretty good athlete and maybe with some fine tuning he could really develope into a good football player but he really didn't do too much statistically at the high school level.. His senior season he caught 25 passes for 238 yards and only 1 touchdown according to the Austin American-Statesman, and wasn't even the best reciever on his team.. But like I said, this guy is a tremendous athlete, and maybe alittle fine tuning will make a difference

this should be a pretty good pick up for south alabama ------------------------------------------------ JAGUARS INTRODUCE ARROW AS NEW HEAD MEN’S BASKETBALL COACH MOBILE, Ala. – University of South Alabama Director of Athletics Joe Gottfried announced at a 3:30 p.m. press conference the hiring of former South Alabama head men’s basketball coach, Ronnie Arrow. Arrow replaces John Pelphrey who took the head coaching job at Arkansas a week ago Monday. Arrow, who was the head coach at South Alabama from 1987-1994, has spent the last eight seasons as head coach at Texas A&M Corpus Christi where he compiled a 134-91 record and took the Islanders to their first NCAA Tournament in 2007. During the Islanders’ first year in the Southland Conference, Arrow guided the team to a school best 26-7 record, the conference championship and was named Coach of the Year. During Arrow’s tenure at Texas A&M Corpus Christi, the Islanders made a name for themselves defeating the likes of South Florida out of the Big East and Texas Christian of the Mountain West for the second straight season in 2005-06. Despite a one-point loss to Big 12 Conference member Missouri on its home court, Arrow brought the Islanders from the ground up to become a contender with the power conferences. In 2004, Arrow put TAMUCC on the national map as it defeated Florida State 70-67 in Tallahassee and followed with an upset win over Old Dominion, handing the Monarchs one of its five losses that season. In addition to those wins, Arrow’s Islanders defeated Texas Tech, Texas A&M and 2004 NCAA Tournament qualifier, Murray State. Arrow took over the Islanders in 1998 when the school moved to Division I and has had three consecutive 20-win seasons. Before coming to Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, Arrow knew all about rising from the ashes. At the end of the 1990-91 season at USA, he was named the Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year for the second time after engineering the most dramatic turnaround in league history. That year, his University of South Alabama Jaguars became the first Sun Belt squad ever to leap from last to first place in a single season. Picked to finish fifth in the conference, South Alabama went on to capture the league crown with an 11-3 mark. The Jags, who finished the season with a 22-9 record, swept through the Sun Belt Tournament and advanced to the NCAA Tournament before falling to the University of Utah in a first-round tilt. In 1987, Arrow took over at South Alabama for Mike Hanks as the schools fifth head coach. During his time in Mobile, Arrow compiled a 114-93 record and led the Jags to two NCAA Tournaments, including the thrilling 86-84 win over Alabama in the first round of the 1989 NCAA Tournament in just his second season at the helm. South Alabama lost to eventual National Champion Michigan in the second round and finished the season with a 23-9 record, won the conference regular season and tournament titles and Arrow was named Sun Belt Conference Coach of the Year. In the summer of 1989, Arrow also coached the United States Junior World Cup Team to the gold medal in Uruguay. His players included NBA stars Grant Hill, Calbert Cheaney and Allan Houston. Over the years, Arrow developed a reputation in the collegiate basketball circles for up-tempo, high-scoring teams. His squads led the Sun Belt Conference in scoring four of his seven seasons at South Alabama. His 1988-89 squad set a school and league record 91 points-per-game average and five of his seven teams tallied at least 80 points per game. Prior to South Alabama, Arrow served as head coach at San Jacinto Junior College from 1977-87. He tallied an impressive 302-43 record and guided the Ravens to 10 TJCAC titles, as well as NJCAA championships in 1983, 1984 and 1986. He was tabbed the NJCAA Region XIV Coach of the Year in 1983,'84,'86,'87 and the national Coach of the Year in 1983 and 1986. His 1985-86 squad led the nation in scoring, averaging 101 points per game. In junior college, Arrow coached several players who went on to enjoy careers in the NBA: Walter Berry, Alton Lister, Ladell Eackles and Larry Spriggs. Arrow was a two-year All-Lone Star Conference honoree and a three-year letterman at Southwest Texas State. After graduating from SWT (now Texas State) with a bachelor's degree in health and physical education in 1969, he began his coaching career by serving three years as a graduate assistant coach at Sam Houston State. He moved on to coach Pasadena High School in the 1972-73 season, capturing the District 23-4A Coach-of-the-Year honors. Arrow and his wife, Nelda, have a daughter, Ailey.

How did Buffalo pull this off?? their stadium sucks..

haha you're joking right?

because when EA started making 360 games they decided to start over and redo everything

I drove by and only saw people setting up for the track meet tomorrow, so i assume not.. Kinda sucks too because its barely raining

alot of navy people out in San Diego, I'm sure thats why both sides thought it would be a good idea to make sure they play there if they do make it to a bowl.. The weren't going to make it to the holiday bowl

McCoy Will Play in The Pit by texashoops.com recruiting staff It needs to be repeated - the relationships that are built in the recruiting process can go a long way. Out of Madison High School in Houston, Ryan McCoy originally planned on going D-I but academics dictated another route. Two years and two junior colleges later - most recently at Midland College - the waterbug 6-foot, 160-pound point guard is heading to the Sun Belt Conference to a program he never lost contact with. "I decided to go to North Texas," McCoy said, who inked his letter-of-intent on Wednesday. "One reason is because they've been recruiting me since forever. Even though I signed with Tulsa out of high school, I was still cool with the coaches and had a good relationship with them." "One former player from my high school (Calvin Watson) played with them and he liked it there," McCoy said. "So everything was good." McCoy has been on UNT's campus both officially and unofficially many times - starting back in high school when he played AAU ball with the Houston Swoosh. In truth, it's like a second home to him and during his official visit when he had a sit-down with the North Texas athletic director, it sold him on going Green. "When I talked to the Athletic Director, he really got me going and that caught my attention," McCoy said. "I really like the campus and the area around it, and the program is nice too." McCoy has the rare distinction of being a two-time NJCAA National Champion - he won as a freshman at Arkansas-Fort Smith and was a member of Midland's title team this year. Unfortunately injuries derailed his sophomore season at Midland and McCoy only got into a handful of games. He admits he got a little down about not playing but he'll never forget the experience he's had the past two years. "When we made it through regionals, I just had a feeling that we would win in nationals," McCoy said. "The past two years I've really been working on my shooting and I've been able to knock down big shots. I've also become a leader too." Texas Hoops Analysis (Fall '04): RYAN is steady floor leader who makes good decisions with the ball. He always seems to know what is going on around him and understands the game situation. He can create, gets into the paint and finds a way to score in traffic. He is a very good passer on the break, gets the ball to the open man and creates easy buckets. He can score when needed and has 3 point range but is satisfied running the team.

I've wondered about that before after chanting the current "u.. n.. t.. eagles.." thanks for the info

this might offend the astronomy club though because it shows stars sinking, and if stars were sinking on earth that would be a good indicator the world is coming to an end, therefore is not appropriate

oops I knew that, I just worded it wrong.. i meant great commit

great signing for the mean green I look forward to seeing this guy distribute the rock

hopefully Gillispie goes or Kentucky may steal J.J. from us

ooh I think I know who u are.. didn't you coach the summer baseball league team one year?
