ESPN's WCC Preview
by Stonehouse on Mon Sep 24, 2007 10:59 am
Check it out:

It's a pretty good preview actually, I would say, though it is a bit Zag-centric and says that Jones is the league's third leading rebounder. Oops! So I guess whoever wrote it didn't do all their homework.
But still, it's a pretty good read.

Nice article. looks like they forgot to update the stats. The articles themselves looked pretty accurate, though.

I needed a new heel for my shoe so I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on them. Give me five bees for a quarter you'd say. Now where were we, oh ya. The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because if the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...."

My idea of 'baby steps' is a 12 win season !
Portland
Baby steps. It's where the Pilots are right now. A 9-23 team under first-year coach Eric Reveno last season, Portland ended a 10-year winless streak in the conference tournament with a first-round victory against Loyola Marymount. The returning starters are senior wing Sherrard Watson (28 starts last season after none the previous two seasons) and sophomore point guard Taishi Ito. Eight newcomers are on the roster, including Dutch junior national team member Robin Smeulders; redshirt sophomore guard Nik Raivio, brother of former Gonzaga standout point guard Derek Raivio; and freshman forward Luke Sikma, son of former NBA star Jack Sikma.
