Our strength program has to help some of our young big guys. Hopefully the Football team shares the strength program and knowledge with All (Basketball) I think Kerns is going to have more chemistry with the next group.

I like the look of next years team. I hope we don't lose anyone to the portal.

Kudos to Kerns for getting the students back to the arena. I hope we give the sideline away from the camera to students as well. At least until we sell some tickets. Perception is truth. We need the cameras to see a full arena for recruits and for fans to feel as if they were missing out.

Take the stairs. Great job Kerns and players.

Edit...Thanks Stonewall.

"Kerns" .We have talent with more inbound.They just need to get the mental part down.

By biggest expectation is that fans actually give a **** and start showing up before the last home game of the season. I know we have a bitter jaded fan base who has to see it before they believe it, but Justin and Mike both took to Twitter multiple times to say how much a bigger crowd fueled them. Holes in the roster will have to be filled and the team will take time to develop but next year I expect fans to show up, especially for weekend games to the tune of 3,000+.

"I remain concerned about our future" - Hap

That's way different than not expecting a repeat of the last two years, glad you walked that back. We all can agree expecting 20 wins without Delph would be a stretch.

To be accurate we averaged 18 wins the last two years, though we do have a chance to get to 20 with postseason play this year.

There are a lot of question marks going forward, expressing concern about how they are answered is not unreasonable. Though, I certainly don't foresee a collapse in the program. Kerns has the program headed in the right direction, the test of he and his staff will be player development and solid recruiting to keep things moving forward. How would you judge that performance to date? That's not skepticism on my part, just curious how you grade him to this point in those areas.

I haven't surveyed the rest of the conference in terms of returning players but I do seem to recall Ga State will be as hard hit as we will be. Of course, we add in four more teams to the mix which I think will make the conference a lot more competitive than it is now.

App to host next Tuesday in the Basketball Classic.
