Eagle Wire

We're still in the midst of college football, which I love, and Eastern is still gunning for a playoff spot. However, the college basketball season tips off tonight! And Eastern opens at WSU, the first time the two have met since 1998 (what's up with that?!). Anyway, Talk about a tough assignment. The cougars used to be, well, not so good in basketball. Now they're a top 10 team. Tough start for new EWU coach Kirk Earlywine and his team, which is short-handed because of injuries and other issues (remember, Earlywine was hired in June - which is very late for college basketball).
Anyway, here's a little preview.
