Until they actually win games, it's not that difficult not to be overly excited, yes there's tempered optimism, but until a game is actually played, being excited about players running around in shorts and shells isn't something I get all worked up about. Let's revisit this at the end of September...

Accurately put---------a bust--without doubt........
Just as Jake Long will be a bust if he ends up playing guard.

Tempered Optimism would be a better term for me. I think we have addressed some needs with capable players some of them coming off injury. I think we will have to wait and see how things develop in preseason then the first couple season games before I really get excited.
