Neither here nor there, but great news!

Will Work for Home Game (or 2)

Miami and Gonzaga scared to come to Amherst. Or something like that - read the link.

Miami will be rescheduled, but its a shame that we will lose one of our best games in Coach Ford's first season.

The DHG (Vautour of course) speculates that Gonzaga and UMASS are heading to court.

Net result: We need two more marquee home games to drive interest, ticket sales, and (dare I dream?) RPI rating.

Maybe a quick call to Louisville is in order.....

Manual Cass Weighing Scholarship Offer

6'6" Junior Small Forward from Carbondale, Illinois is weighing scholarship offers from Umass, as well as Wake Forest, Southern Illinois, Purdue, Bradley, Xavier, Nebraska, Dayton, Kansas State and Illinois.

It seems that, in addition to playing all three post positions in a run to the Illinois Class AA title game last season, Cass is a prolific scorer, penetrator, and three-point shooter.

According to the link, location will not be a factor in his decision.
