Tennessee__Papa, Millsaps gym is pretty bad.  When you first walk in it seems kind of cool just because it is so much more unique than any other gym you've ever seen.  It used to be an old airplane hangar, so you can just imagine the shape and the way the sound bounces off the wall.  Once you get past the way it looks you realize how difficult it is to play in the gym.

The only way I can describe the lighting in the gym is comparing it to the moment in the movie theaters when they are showing the pre-views.  It isn't all the way black yet, but it is dark.  Not only that, but only one basket is lit up.  The other thing that makes shooting difficult is the fact that one basket is literally 9 1/2 feet.  If you don't believe me, go check out the basket on the left side as you walk in the gym.  It will definitely give a home court advantage to Millsaps if they are in the conference tournament, but it shouldn't be a factor with two away teams.

Hey everyone, I am new to this board and I just wanted to make a few comments before the new year comes around.

I realize once the new season starts some players will be forgotten because they didn't stick out.  I wanted to give some credit to the Trinity team this year because no one gave them that much credit.  They wound up winning 23 games and yet they weren't noticed as being one of the teams that people feared.  The six seniors put their personal pride aside and totally accepted the team concept.  There are similar players across the SCAC that should be noticed and I think now would be a great time to bring up some of yur thoughts about them.  I think this next year is definitely going to be an interesting one!!
