Some of the things he said make me worry about Oakland. Hopefully our guys will be ready by Thursday!

Also, I think what he says Cory is doing is great in that last quote. I'm glad to see him stepping up and helping the team.

My only problem is this..."I think our easy wins are by the wayside. Anyone that would play their schedule-- at Xavier, at Illinois, at (Texas) A& M, at Kansas State, at Missouri, at Saint Louis and home against Marquette...we would probably be in the same spot they are record wise."...he makes it sound like he doesn't think we could compete with some of these schools. I've seen vast improvements with this team and I agree some teams we would have problems with, but saying we would be 1-8 after Oaklands schedule makes me wonder how much faith DD has in the team.[/url]

While many have accused Eyink of underachieving in the stat book, you can't say that he has never given it 110%. He is a great team player.

I think his comment had more to do with them not overlooking Oakland as they have played an extremely tough schedule. Saying we would be in a similar boat with that schedule is a way of saying they are not taking their record lightly. But who knows maybe he really does think we would be 1-8

Yeah...I'm probably looking into that one too deep. It was just the first thought that came to me when I first read that and I actually read it again just to make sure I understood him right. We are off to a good start that will give our guys some momentum going into conference play and I sure hope DD didn't mean we should be 1-8!
