vs Auburn I am reminded that some of us saw this coming and said that when the Huskies were left at the alter during realignment, they were in major trouble and would not be able to sustain their hoop program at the level that they had been.  There were others here that argued with us that we were wrong.  That their brand would help carry them through this.  Now, my point isn't to go down memory lane about the Huskies.  Screw them.  Who cares.  But it does carry me to another board argument and that is how badly the sanctions have hurt us.  I maintain that they have hurt us a lot.  And much of the problems that we see right now, are happening because of those same sanctions.   The result is the team we have.  And I believe that our coach has looked at this team and said what do we have on the ship that is good?  And his answer is that we can become an elite defensive team.  We only have at this time, three guys that we can rely on to score. As we saw last night, maybe not even that.  But down the road,  perhaps we can be that elite defensive team.  I think it is the right bet.  No offensive scheme is going to make Moyer or PC offensive threats.  Marek might have potential on offense but he hasn't really showed it.  That really leaves us with the three. And that really leaves us with the hope that our defense can get to that elite level as the season goes on.  In any case, let's face it, we all would have signed up for 11-2 in the OCC.
