Watched the 100 Seasons of UMass Basketball video last night. Still get goosebumps watching the Calipari era and the heights the program went to. Watching the early parts with Tony Barbee, Harper Williams, and Will Herndon made me hope this new group is the start of another run, and the Bill gets pa...

Haven't heard a lot about Samba. Hope he's full strength. He reminds me of Dana Dingle in how he rebounds and his quiet demeanor. He's a kid that to me could be explosive if the focus is on Tre and Sy.

but I certainly planted a flag in my shorts listening to him

TMI there son, TMI

Tre Wood should eat up that league. Interesting that he wound up at LIU. was he recruited by DK to UMass?

Wow, we need games to start. This year feels like the start of the McCall era. Lets see where we go from here. Honestly, aside from the toughness they played with the first year, its been a rough ride. But I give MM a lot of credit for realizing things needed to be changed and has not been afraid to...

Thanks Slap. Love his athleticism

This is a notably improved basketball team with Walker. He's a really, really good piece, especially for a young team. His freshman years numbers, which were decent, would be even better if you take away the 4 or 5 games his coach inexplicably played him 3 or fewer minutes and he scored 0 each time...

Must be that #1 UMass dining!

No, it isn't. But some people might not have seen it last year and were just discussing the wording. Just sounded like a jab at UMass

Would it make a difference?

Agree len. I'd say its a positive whether they need it or not, just the fact that its there to help them.

Also agree LS, it was written to sound derogatory

I'd like to see the young guys on the OLine and DLine gain experience, which will help us down the line. Looks like some big boys coming in next year which will help too. Somehow gotta keep the young talent on board so we're not resetting every season. Tough sledding right now but can only get better

Plus watching games on tv you can't help but notice the court, which will get UMass more notice.

I love it. Fresh start this year, new court, new players, new coaches, new unis. Now lets turn the corner and get some wins

^ yeah, I like this group. It seems like they're a team ready to earn it, and willing to work to get their respect. Just hope people get out and support them

I think the addition of Bergeron is huge. This guy wasn't just some assistant somewhere. He ran very successful programs and has tons of success developing players and his teams. The guy knows what he's doing
