This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Thx RI. Great Anderson Preview. Lotsa 3's by Va. Tech Guards by dillon77

- Aisha Sheppard (15.4 points per game, 72-of-193 on 3-pointers for 37.3%), sophomore guard Dara Mabrey (12.7 ppg, 66-of-172 on 3s for 38.4%)

- Looking forward to seeing 6-5 freshman center Elizabeth Kitley (11.6 ppg, 7.3 rebounds, 1.9 blocks, 55.1% from the field in 25.6 minutes)

- One of the grad. student forwards that the board researched last spring (I think MPG tracked her down initially) is 6-2 grad-student forward Lydia Rivers (6.8 ppg, 8.4 rpg in 26.5 mpg). She's given the Hokies what we collectively hoped she could give the Irish: some minutes and some rebounds.

- Glad to hear Destinee is gung ho about coming back. While things look good, think I'll wait until that is completely signed, sealed and delivered before doing the proverbial happy dance.

- With grad student Taja Cole, Dara is playing off guard here, which is the position she mostly played at Manasquan HS (save her senior year).

- If Kaitlyn can't go, will probably see a whole lot of Katie Cole.
