I just like the fact we wont have the unbalanced schedule with all the top teams playing each other twice in the mirror games. I know it was done for TV but those stretches of playing gtown, Pitt, cuse, and UConn sucked. Seems like all those teams hit a wall and went on a losing streak. Cincinnati has only played at the yum center once due to that flawed schedule. Cincy was never one of our 3 mirror opponents which was crazy. Some teams would have an absolutely brutal schedule while others didn't. I think this 10 team league truly benefits Lou, UConn, USF, and cincy. The big east schedule can swallow a team whole. Once you got buried in it its tough to crack the top half. No more unbalanced schedule for our teams. Schedule no where near as brutal. That's a good thing.

That doesn't mean anything. All those accolades don't replace what you lost in those two guys. You don't have the kind of impact players Kentucky gets to replace PG and C. You will still be hurting and our teams length is going to bother you since it is going to be a 40 minute press.

You talk about UK a lot. You like to live through them? Anyways I see UofL and UConn fighting for the league crowd. I really like this UConn squad. Really looking forward to our two meetings and most likely third for the AAC Tourney title.

That's all I was saying.

I hear you, AD. But I don't follow your logic.

1. UConn loses nothing. Nada. Everyone's back. As college kids do, they will continue to get better.

2. Louisville loses 2 of their 3 key players. You're treating that like it's just a matter of numbers, i.e. 70% of scoring, rebounding , etc. returns. All of that is true. The kids who are returning - almost the entire roster - will continue to improve. But what you ignored in my assessment is that the chemistry is completely disrupted. This is a team sport in which the loss of one key player can completely alter its chemistry. That's what happened here. The loss of the 2nd guy makes it that much more difficult.If anyone can turn it around quickly, it's Pitino. And he has a lot of talent to work with. I'm not predicting bad things for Louisville. Just saying that we're going to have to watch the season unfold.

For the most part I agree. Especially about your points on Peyton Siva. His intangibles are so underrated. His leadership and his ability to find guys in rhythm was very underrated. If we had a team full of shooters he easily averages double digit assists. He reminds me a lot of a Jose Calderon type where he just sees plays develop before they happen and can just find guys in their sweet spot. Rajon Rondo had this same ability. He was a true definition of a point guard.

Having said that our team this year will look a lot different not a lot different personnel but in terms of pace. Teams did not have to worry about Sivas scoring because that was not his strong suit. This team will be more run and gun because we have quite a few scorers including the new guys.I think ricks last few teams have been offensively challenged at times. We would get exposed againdt grinding teamd like pitt and georgetown with out lack of shooting. Even though last years team won it they went on scoring droughts often. Our defense more so carried us last year and the year before. This team will have quite a few scoring options which has not been something we've had since our final 4 team in 05. Siva will be missed with his leadership and diengs defensive presence will also be missed. Im not sure this Louisville team will be better than last early on but by February I firmly believe this team will be a contender. This is the most pure talent rick has had since hes been at Louisville. Offensively next years group will be better. Interior defense will take a step back. Having said that Louisville is still a top 3 team in the nation.

Completely agree with everything you've said.

The only thing I would question is the February 1 date. It's completely arbitrary. There's no way to know when it will come together for this group. It could be December 1, . . . 2014.

All we can say for certain is that the impact of Siva and Dieng was so strong, that the 2013-14 version will be a completely different team with a different character. Not worse. Just different. So, we'll have to wait to see what they will be.

No I don't like UK but you guys talk as if you have these instant impact players from day 1. Your guards are "small" and will have issues with some of the guards in this league. There is always the Chris Jone's factor. Lets see which Jones laces them up.

Our small guards had no problem last year, you know, winning the National Championship. We are small but lightning quick with a lot of depth who presses with tenacity. Teams eventually will wear down. Its what Rick does best.

Melky I only said February because pitinos teams for whatever reason struggle in January. They normally kick it in gear in February. But yes this team will be different but no doubt about it Sivas IQ and leadership will be missed.

There must be a category for almost or wish. Because you guys like to use "we almost won" or "I wish" we could have had different refs. Bottom line is you lost and you get no points for "almost" and "wish". Even if we lost that meaningless game in December I wouldn't have cared one iota. Cutting down the nets was the only goal last season. We don't hang banners for "almost" "could have or I wish and neither does UConn.

Or Louisville by conference play and go @ times with a 6-4 PG Kevin Ware & a 6-5 SG Wayne Blackshear.

It like this, whether you like it or not Louisville is the Defending NCAA Champions that return more firepower then any Defending Champion since Florida...UofL will enter the year as the Favorite to win the AAC and a strong favorite to return for a 3rd Straight Final Four....you will get your chance to knock the champs off...but in reality the UConn Huskies are the bigger threat...

Ummmm that's all we have heard from your folks is this " #2" ranked class but I guess only a Memphis fan can expect immediate impact players. Some idiot kept coming to the uofl rivals board talking about how fantastic geron Johnson and Joe Jackson our and how are guards are small and Siva is over rated last year blah blah. We have only two small guards who will play. Wayne blackshear is 6`5 Kevin ware is 6`4 and anton gill is 6`4. Plus terry rozier is 6`2. If only Memphis guys can have immediate impacts then whatever you say. But again I'm used to hearing this from Memphis fans(not all) and usually the same results take place.

I guess he doesn't realize that Louisville will throw out a lineup of players this size:

PF 6-9
C 6-10
PG 6-4
SG 6-5

Yes, UofL is versatile like this with their roster...

No point has been missed but this feels like a re-run because I've heard this before. I swear I heard that same exact line last year right before the battle for Atlantis and then.........again not from all Memphis fans because there are plenty that post here who are rational.

Wow we can even throw out a taller lineup than that. Also that is a lot of faith you have in that Magok kid to play C.

Memphis is the same every year. They talk about how they will dominate and in the end they fail. It was cute seeing you all dominate C-USA when there was no one in it, but this is big boy basketball your coming into now. Not the same as the old Big East but still a huge upgrade from C-USA

Humble pie???? Again you are insinuating our success is predicated on referees. that's rather hilarious I must say. So you are basically saying you feel that your team that you pull for needs a rule in place to beat Louisville. When will your excuses eventually bottom out? So I guess if they raised test scores a point none of those players would be eligible.lol Sounds ridiculous right??? It does along with all these excuses you are using.

When they come to the Yum Center or when they go to UConn Harry A. Gampel Pavilion they will see new Title Banners...they just don't understand...

Yes, UofL is versatile like this with their roster...

Wow we can even throw out a taller lineup than that. Also that is a lot of faith you have in that Magok kid to play C.

Your team has proved exactly what???? Seems like all you have is faith. At least we have some tangible proof. We have proved what we are capable of. But I'm sure you will respond with another long list of your yearly excuses.
