Dan (Philly): With Frank Elegar and 2 solid outside shooters, what do you project for YOUR Drexel Dragons? It's a team with what is looking like the potential for a very good offense with no rebounding or defense... But being the hallmark of Bru Flint, one can expect the Rebounding and D to improve as the year goes on, right?
Kyle Whelliston: (4:29 PM ET ) Ah, the Dragons. All the people who were downplaying their chances to me this summer are talking about how incredible Gerald Colds' shot is. I can't wait to see him play at the Philly Classic next week. But yeah, Elegar is going to need a lot more help on the glass. I just keep wishing that Kenny Tribbett would come around.

Hmmm... That does read a lot like Metsox's rambling style of prose... I'd bet it's him.
I think my boss is officially putting me on burnout watch, so I'm not getting much backlash to hitting up the zone, espn, porn, etc, while I'm at the office.

"In the first half we made them hit tough shots," said Florida Gulf Coast coach Dave Balza, who had hoped his team could join conference-mates Mercer, Gardner-Webb and Belmont in pulling a big upset.
A big upset! Guess that means we've arrived. 8)

Re: Media Thread
Daily News Article They got a local down there to write it, I always appreciate when they do it instead if just using the AP clips. One of the reasons I'm considering switching from the Inky to the DN.
Frank Elegar, Drexel -- A late-blooming big man, the senior is averaging 19.5 points and 12.5 rebounds in two games thus far. He will be a force in the CAA.

The DN sports coverage blows the Inqy out of the water. Other than sports, though, its a complete rag.
