Yeah I don't really understand it. We're having the best student attendance in a while.
Another point.. I don't think that's a coincidence that there are also a lot more on campus living options.
Cue the bandwagon fan posts in 3, 2, 1...
But yes, I'm sure Pittsburgh isn't the only town to record actual attendance. Side note, it really is crazy how it's turned into a hockey town, not just a Pens town.
I will say this one is different, I didn't realize there was scholarship money involved. However the rest aren't even contests... It's just whatever school that happens to have a few people vote all day or make programs to vote for them. Sadly, that even includes Zippy's mascot of the year.
For all intents and purposes, it's pretty much two divisions in name only. You play everyone once, some teams twice.. And seeding for the tourney isn't based on divisions anymore. I'd say I'm all for one division, but we're basically there.
I think the wins at OU and EMU are more indicative of this team than the dud vs Toledo. We can lay an egg once in a while (which scares me since our season comes down to a couple nights in March), but we're still a step above the MAC. Unfortunately, so is Toledo.
Buckley has a job, and if he thinks Washington is good enough to play there, it would be silly not to bring him.
In the future if we recruit a DB and he is interested, does he back off?
