With all the talk about Echenique, I thought Lawson might get overlooked. Shoot, has a POY ever lost his starting job midway through the year? If the plan is to play the big guys together that will be the best pair in the league.

Should be a good season. Who voted Bradley 1st though?

I heard tornado was classified as a member of the Bradley media with all of his elite blog reporting and was able to cast votes.

What is everyone thinking? We all know that the Shockers are the perennial 9th place team, completely incapable of winning a championship and/or a 2nd round NCAA Tournament game like UNI and CU.

An unproven point guard and an unproven coach. That equals a 9th place finish.

Echenique and Lawson certainly will be a good tandem. I look forward to the match-up between them versus Durley and Stutz (as well as Blair and Orukpe).
