Ok, in that case it's important to set the "If CAS is not the user repository, should cas highjack users with the same name?" check box in the user accounts configuration for CAS.  

It's not on by default and may explain what you're seeing here.

Yes, I already have the accounts stored in Drupal for the people in  
question.  As for CAS, since I'm still in development I'm using the  
basic functionality of the server for now where you can use any user  
and the password is the username.

Yes, to some degree I do want both to work (i.e. allowing the admin  
for Drupal to login without CAS authentication while other arbitrary  
users are validated from CAS.
