I actually hope he doesn't see the court until his attitude has changed.

I heard this as well... I don't expect much from Railey. I don't even think he'll be on the team after this year.

I think Jordan Railey will contribute a lot more than anyone is giving him credit for, he had some nice plays here and there last year, and had a pretty good game against Texas A&M along with others, he did just fine as a freshman in the big 12

Isn't it a tradition to have our center leave? Hamilton, Godfrey.....

Edit: I like everyone on this team and wouldn't mind if they all stayed.

I think his ceiling is Homan.He is big, has a mean streak and likes to drink.

It all ends when he decides to hide under a car from 5-0.

Railey is no where near Homan imho. Homan was a banger who did a lot of dirty work down low. Yes, I know Railey was only a freshman last year, but he just seemed really flat footed.

What he really needs is a redshirt year. Weightroom, getting in better shape, post skills...etc. Just imagine, DG should be a senior this year if he resdhirted as originally planned. We would have a good chance to win the conference with DG still here.

It is way too early to give up on Railey. These big guys take a long time to get their coordination down, and he is too big and has too good a touch around the basket to throw out. How good he is in two or three years time is up to him.

Railey's attitude is a concern, but I think he gets way too much **** on this site.

FACT: Our defense was better when he was in the game last season.

Having someone that big in the middle of the lane can make up for mistakes by the perimeter defenders. He needs to work on his positioning and understanding what is and isn't a foul. He has the athleticism to be a legitimate force in the paint.
