This year they've got 3 guards (Bird, Boyd, McKinney).. Bird is a stringbean looking kid w/the popular shaved sides of head and finger in a light-socket hairdo. He can be MUCH better than you'd think by the looks of him, IF his 2pt shot gets going, his whole game picks up.. sometimes it happens. Boyd has the look of an athlete, transfer from I don't remember where, but he can drive and run. McKinney, short n quick and likes the 3.. but NONE of them shoot like RJ Davis on NCar. ALL are scrappy and unselfish. On any given night if 2 of them get it going they can keep up w/anybody. Gwath Magoon is their 7ft center/shot blocker, but he's slender and still filling out, a surprisingly good 3pt shooter though.. didn't get to see Aztecs lose the other day against Boise, but they only managed 51 points... you're not going to win many games EVER by scoring 51 points. 'gun to my head', I'd have to take Carolina, but they're pretty shaky too lol no wager for me I have NO IDEA how they're gonna play tomorrow
