against UNLV. The injuries to two key players for LB could've been the difference though. I agree with the poster who said constantly pound it inside against LB. It will be the achilles heel for one more season.

That poster would be me and I again say LBS will not win the conference title this year. If tj and phelps are playing out of position at center then thats
where you are the weakest and can be exploited. If TJ ever gets in foul trouble or is out for any amount of time LBS will be in bad shape. LBS has a soon to be
great team - but they are still too young and too small. That problem will be exploited in their very tough OOC schedule. Now on to UCD. I read where Payne
(who is now pegged as their best outside shooter) never attempted a perimeter shot in their game. They too had a problem in the paint but against poor
competition. UOP poolsters say they have no one who can shoot it from the perimeter. UCSB & UCR look to be rounding into form, so they may upset early in
OOC games.

I don't know--UNLV is loaded, even if they have had a high turnover of players. If LBSU was more aggressive on the boards than UNLV, that could be trouble
for the rest of the BW.

LB won't be in as bad as shape as you think in the post. But, I think it should be the first thing to exploit when playing them. In fact I want a full on
assault to see how they fare and will be the first one to call it as it is.

What's the latest on Jules? | #4 | ||
|
Is there now no chance that he'll play this season?

Still an unknown. He may be ready in a couple of months, he may not. Jules definitely changes the LBSU lineup, if he plays.

Is UNLV really "loaded," though the Rebs are picked to finish third in the MWC? I don't think LB's supposed lack of height will hurt 'em.

They have plenty of former 3 and 4 star recruits like Jasper from Kentucky, Stanback from UCLA, Thomas from KU, and Willis from Memphis. Shaw was a stud at
Fairfax High--they have others I don't know off the top of my head. These were all recruits who were too big for the Big West, and haven't lived up to
their potential--yet.
Their freshman class is good too.

Didn't Jasper also consider LB before deciding on transferring to UNLV? | #8 | ||

I'm sure Williams talked with him, but he never really considered going mid-major. He was a high-major guy. Not sure what UNLV qualifies as anymore, but
they are more high-major than mid-major. Kentucky is definitely high-major and he started for them before getting injured.
