UMass blows.

toledo lost to kent 2024 @11am.

lots of ways to make things better or worse. top 4 to cleveland and the other 8 with play in games worked the best.

the idea wa that they get a few hours more rest. but a top seed with a good fan base should get the prime time slot

there are always a few random MAC players i hope to never see again: Hadaway is one. Sabol is another but hes a junior...of course, Suder.

I thought the Zips did some hero ball and went for a few high difficulty shots which led to some empty possessions when they had a solid lead. Note the ending v Buffalo game at home and Buffalo quarterfinals 2022: few weeks ago Buffalo made same come back but Zips had a bigger cushion. 2022 Bulls had open 3 to win, Garvin backed off, and it rattled out. That last 3 at least Zach had his hand up. In 2022, after the close call, Zips cruised from there against Toledo and Kent.

painful. knew sabol would get hot

BG blows!

John Floyd is reffing. He called the foul on Julius Rollins. He doesn't mess around.

yes

I could understand this if the narrative-pushing media voted on this but the coaches? Certainly, some privilege occurring here.

Key Voting Details: Football: Head coaches vote on All-MAC teams and specialty awards. Basketball (Men's & Women's): Head coaches vote on All-MAC teams and specialty awards. Restrictions: Coaches cannot vote for their own players. I wonder if the fired coaches bothered to vote!

Who votes on this?

I will take UMass for the block.

Apart from the POY ( would any coach choose Suder over Tavari for their team?), good representation for Akron.

Just saw a mid major poll that had Miami #1 ahead of Gonzaga. 22 first place votes to 5. Talk about garbage in and garbage out.

Shammas 6th Man of the year...again.

Maybe next year for MJ

Montgomery to WMU?

Montgomery to EMU 😀

Mark Montgomery and Detroit into the Horizon League final. Quick turnaround of that program.

A Bowen Hardman bobble head would be nice.

Tod and Toledo are built for March unlike his prior teams. Tod takes out Travis in semis if UMass doesnt clip them first.

Hard for me to complain about the gym when the team playing there has 31 home win streak.
