Hoop Time does Dallas
We are finally connected here in Dallas, after a morning of technical glitches and righteous outrage at the thought of being charged $30 per day for a wireless Internet connection at the American Airlines Center.

Wireless was free last season in Oklahoma City, and is at most arenas throughout the season. Apparently the NCAA has caught the oil company mentality here in Texas, although at those rates, oil prices seem to pale in comparison.

That led to a lengthy hold time with an AOL customer service rep to upgrade to an unlimited dial up account.

Bucknell has finished its press conference and is in the midst of its shootaround at the American Airlines Center.

We'll have a full report on that and the press conference following the shootaround.

12:45 p.m. (Central)

Bucknell has completed its shootaround. Like last year, Pat Flannery ran the team through a series of light drills.

Fan favorite, Holland Mack, finished several drills with crowd pleasing dunks, including one where to took off from the foul line. One of Mack's finishes drew the ire of Flannery, who loudly chastised the senior forward.

Charles Lee and Josh lInthicum also threw down a fews dunbks, but most of the Bison were content to lay it in at the finish of drills like the classic three-man weave.

More to follow.
