would you rather lose with a classy guy like Rod Barnes or lose with a joke like Andy Kennedy? I'll hang up and listen.

I loved Rod Barnes, but you need to do more research. Andy Kennedy has finished no worse than 7-9 in conference, and has had a winning record every year. Even though we haven't made it to the tournament, we went to the New York in the NIT the year before this year, and we tied State for the west in 2007. Last year injuries turned a team that should have had 3 returning starters into a team that had 1 returning starter. We lost 3 guys who scored more than 10 points a game the year before. What did that team do? finish third/fourth in the west and produce the SEC freshman of the year Terrico White 19 ppg. The year before Chris Warren dropped about 18 ppg as a freshman we get both of those kids back and return Eniel Polynice (starter for 2 years, injured last year) and Murphy Holloway, who was a SC MR Basketball and a stud power forward this past year as a freshman. We also bring in Memphis Phenom Reggie Buckner, a guy who fricking owned the McDonalds All American game. The kid broke the Memphis city schools block record in less than half a season this past year. He had an offer from pre-Calipari Memphis.

This is our year in Basketball too, We had no scholarship players on our team who were seniors last year. 0. OM has got that wood in B-Ball next year too.

But, yeah I miss rod, he was a class act. He wasn't a good coach. He took Rob Evan's team to the sweet 16 in 2001, but essentially did what Les Miles is gonna do at LSU. Yes Kennedy is a thug, but he's a better basketball coach, that's what matters.

It's going to be between Miss St/ Kentucky anyway.

I think next year will change a lot. Pel is a good coach. A lot better than people give him credit.
