It’s hard to believe that the basketball season is upon us. It seems like only yesterday we were dealing with the heartbreak of being left out of the NCAA Tournament.
With the start of a new season comes energy and excitement, and a new enthusiasm is created. As sad as it is to see the likes of Malcolm Delaney, Jeff Allen and Terrell Bell move on, that is what college athletics is all about.
The start of the season brings excitement with the return of Dorenzo Hudson and Cadarian Raines. Dorenzo, a third team All-ACC player in 2009-10, and Cadarian, a physical presence inside, no doubt will help us as we transition into the new season. Their play, along with senior Victor Davila, junior Erick Green and sophomores Tyrone Garland and Jarell Eddie, along with a very talented freshman class has created a great deal of enthusiasm for the coming season.
We can only be as good as we would like to be if we do it together. And “together” means you, the student body. As I’ve said in the past, your ownership and energy makes Cassell Coliseum one of the most unique and toughest places to play in all of college basketball. I am counting on you, as we play three games in four days this coming week.
Our Chalk Talks will begin Friday at noon in D2. I look forward to welcoming a new group of Chalk Talk enthusiasts, as we discuss the upcoming opponent and Virginia Tech basketball in the year 2011-12.
Please join me as we begin another great season of college basketball at Tech. I look forward to seeing you in both D2 and Cassell. Let’s have a great season “together.”
