They had a nice road win, something they don't normally do. We will be comfortable underdogs coming off the double-digit loss to Wofford.

On FIOS that's Ch. 575. If the game is at Arkansas, maybe Wake will have jet lag.

All I want to see at Wake is heart, effort and teamwork. I don't really even care about a win. In fact, this might be the mantra for me this year.

I expect adjustments will be made for Wake Forest. The objective early in the year with past Cluess teams has been learn and progress. When we get beat by more talented teams I only hope we show effort and heart. Conversely, when we lose to less talented teams I hope we learn from that experience and avoid repeats. This team is still learning how to play together with all the new and inexperienced players. Over time their play will become more instinctual and cohesive as players learn their roles. Our leaders will lead by example and the others will follow as in past seasons. The disappointment of the second half against Wofford will have the team motivated against Wake Forest, I am expecting a competitive game. I look forward to Isaiah Williams showing he is the emotional leader of the team, the spark plug with his hustle plays. We are very fortunate to have a player like him who plays unselfish and with heart. He will in my opinion be the pivotal player this season. In Cluess we trust! GO GAELS!

In fact, this might be the mantra for me this year.[/quote] Heart, effort and team work should be the ingrained makeup of all teams, All participants should have and display them, even though they don't meet the game skills of their opponents...They are IMO a given and expected value, but they in no way do they dismiss the ultimate goal and satisfaction--that is winning... To do so is sure to travel the road to ''No win Sports'' which has already gained a foothold with limited defeat scores acceptance... Its not my 'Cup of tea'.....

I like the fact that Wake is playing a big game at Arkansas 2 days before our game.

Watching the Ark/Wake game. Wake is a turnover machine. Ark pressure is really tough.
Wofford appears a tougher match than Wake.
I predict we can beat Wake by 8-10pts. I'm afraid Ark looks a notch or two above us and would be a challenge to hang with them. Ark has 3 really talented inside bangers (Portis, Williams, and Kingsley). Ark is a terrific rebounding team.
Mike Anderson (former Missouri coach) loves to run like TC and I feel Iona and Ark would combine for 190+ points.
