Fair enough. I am probably spoiled from the Zach Paul years.

Eh it is not bragging as I definitely want better. Just pointing out that the rankings clearly are not the end all be all. I also did not appreciate the mocking of us getting local recruits when I think some of them are quite talented. The local kids have also proven to be key members of the program. At least we may not end up last in the MAC this year Imagine what coaches could do with middle of the road MAC recruiting classes??

Good to see Weiland commit. @Blue & Gold likes him and he seems pretty informed on local HS football. Gasser wasn't that impressive last year, IMO. The Barto thing seems a tad odd. We are his only reported offer.

Well not every recruit is on that list and the class isn't final, but whatever. We've won a bowl game and had the most ever D-1 wins ever with classes ranked last in the MAC year after year.

Yeah, back in November a scout writer tweeted that Lugo has reopened his commitment and Akron and FIU are the front runners. That's still what Scout shows today. I don't think 247 ever changed the status. Who knows.

FYI I cannot find anything new on Moris Lugo. Still appears it is between us and FIU (seems like we compete with them a lot).

Most definitely.

Meh I don't think there was any malicious intent. Clearly Buffalo thought it was a better option to foul Big Dog rather than to let him shoot (and they were right). They were just locked up and Big Dog went to catch the post pass.

I am not seeing it.

Make. Your. Free. Throws.

Its quite amazing. He's gotten plenty of deserved love so far this season. So great to have him finally become the player most of us thought he could be.

KC 4 THREE!!!!!!!!!!1

Man these refs are really taking away from the flow of the game. At least it is getting called both ways I suppose.

I've seen Nate Oats run down and apparently try to spook Kwan twice now on that corner 3. A little classless if you ask me.

TDM is not playing positive basketball.

He attended the Buffalo game last season it was actually I believe. Look for 10 or so empty courtside seats. Would be a good hint.

7-0.

I get your point, but your example is off (at least for JCU) as D3 schools do not offer athletic scholarships.

another one of my favorite Zeke memories outside of the Kent St MAC final that was shared. What a BS technical.

Good stuff, B&G. Tree has been my 2nd favorite player to watch (behind Zeke) in my now 7 years of fandom. Seems like you are basically describing a Tree on steroids in every facet of the game. I would have liked to have seen Wood play. Although I took a look at the stats and I have to say I think father time may be hazing your memory some. It looks like he never even shot a 3 until his senior season, averaged 14.1/7.7/2.5 his senior year.. Whereas Tree averaged 15.2/8.6/1.9 in his junior season. Big dog is averaging 15.8/7.3/3.4 this year. I personally think there is a real argument for Tree if you want to consider him a C, which I think is arguable. It's too bad we never got to see his senior season.

Good info. Thanks for sharing.

Zeke was also the best player on probably the program's best team ever, and that team still had some glaring holes. 19 game win streak, national ranking, MAC Championship, 12 seed in tournament. IF Big Dog leads us to an NCAA tourney win then I'll have to reconsider as that accomplishment blows everything else out of the water at this point.

Keep in mind Big Dog basically provided nothing his 1st 2 years and didn't contribute much until Pat went down midway through last season.

Did not want to start a new thread, but it seems were aren't the only ones who get crappy media coverage. Northwestern is 17-4 and currently 3rd in B1G standings.

Should have made one of the questions attendance related
