Thanks for the tidbit BP. Judging from Loops "billing" I would strongly assume you waited for a real good one to use as your coming out party.
Thanks and I am on your coattail.:spotting:
Here is some additional info on this game I found elsewhere, this is not my handy work....
The Citadel Bulldogs visit the Memorial Center to take the East Tennessee State Buccaneers in Southern Conference action this afternoon. The Bulldogs have yet to win a road game this season and are still winless in league play, but did post a win last time out, handling an outmanned Emmanuel College, 88-55, on Tuesday. The win snapped the Bulldogs' four game slide. The Buccaneers enter today's game off a conference loss to Appalachian State. The loss snapped the Buccaneers' brief two game winning streak and dropped the team to 1-1 in conference play. East Tennessee State has yet to lose at the Memorial Center this season, winning all five contests there. East Tennessee State leads the all-time series 35-14, but dropped last year's meeting (74-61) in Charleston.
The Bulldogs were lead by Gregg Jones who scored 15 points and pulled down six rebounds in Tuesday's victory over Emmanuel College. Kevin Hammack had a double-double with 12 points and 11 assists, while Erick Wilson came off the bench to chip in 11 points himself. Although the Bulldogs could only manage to shoot 39.4 percent from the floor, they cruised to a 33-point victory over the smaller opponent. Michael Joseph leads the Bulldogs in scoring and rebounding averaging 11.3 ppg and 6.3 rpg. The constant line-up changes have left The Citadel without any other double-digit scorers.

Tim Smith adds 11.6 ppg and Jerald Fields chips in with 10.5 ppg to round out a balanced offensive attack. The Buccaneers were handed their first conference loss on Monday against Appalachian State 108-94. Even though the Buccaneers scored 94 points and created 27 turnovers, they could not stop Appalachian State, allowing the Mountaineers to shoot 62.5 percent from the field. Tiras led the scoring for the Buccaneers with 21 points, while grabbing eight rebounds. Ben Rhoda racked up 16 points in 22 minutes of action off the bench.
