As I write this, I’m getting ready to leave for the airport for a trip to Texas for more basketball than any sane person should be able to see in five days.

Am I really seeing 10 games in five days? Probably. My brain isn’t quite all here. Maybe it’s eight. But it’ll be a Mississippi College/McMurry doubleheader on Thursday night, likely the Millsaps/Southwestern doubleheader on Friday night, Howard Payne/LeTourneau on Saturday, Millsaps/Trinity on Sunday and the Hardin-Simmons/McMurry rivalry battle on Monday.

Monday will be a D3hoopsNet broadcast, the first of the season.

At any rate, I look forward to meeting people and seeing a bunch of teams I’ve never seen before, courtesy of the McMurry Athletics Foundation. Of this group I’ve seen just McMurry, Hardin-Simmons and Trinity play.

I’ll also be talking about the trip on Hoopsville on Sunday night, as well as posting photos from games and more blog entries.

Looking forward to it. See you there!
