Basketball Season is just around the corner, so we're Gearing up for Monday!
This thread will serve for both the AAC and FAU Media Days
I watched the UofM Student Madness event the other night. Media Day on Monday. Not to mention the Grizzlies open preseason tomorrow night vs the Pacers.
Notice the conference office lined us up back-to-back. ;)
People can say what they want, but when you have this over what the conference had, we HAVE arrived as a program.
Coach was obviously the most talkative, then Byran, Spoon, and Gaff (who had to be coaxed into answering a question)
Jim Saturday who will be formally introduced also joined out team today. All in all we have four team members for hoop season this year.
