This next season will be one to watch.  I'm glad I have my tickets now.

Mandel has been one of the few people in the national media to give us some props in the past.  I figured he'd have us in his top 25 somewhere.

Probably because we're so unpredictable ::)

I don't think anybody hates us.  They just might not be aware of us that much.

I don't think ESPN hates us, ESPN just doesn't care.  We don't have a bunch of alomni at Bristol like Syracuse or UConn or Rutgers or even Seton Hall.  And we don't have the name brand of a Florida, Miami, Ohio State or USC.  

It was GREAT to see this mention nationally.  It's another step in a long trip to becoming one of those name brands.

By the way, did you notice we have 4 2007 opponents in this list (WVU, RU, UL & Auburn).  If we can hold our own with those, expect these rankings to become normal for our Bulls.
