Well, it was Texas-Pan American when he started. πLooking at their history, it's a tough place to win or even be respectable for that matter. Fennell had two winning records there his two years. Maybe WMU is on to something.
They throw big guards at him in games like this. He can't even get a shot off. He can usually adjust and drive to the basket, but interior defense is better on this team. Young isn't lighting anything up either.
Interesting to hear. I wonder a bit if part of the reason was the way MJ's departure was handled and his previous association with her as a co-assistant under Kest. The Miami job opened up a month or so after Gensler was hired. That job was a dumpster fire as opposed to ours which was mediocre. Regardless, it shows how quick things can be turned around if you hire the right coach.
Miami, under former UA assistant Glenn Box in his third year at the helm, are the 2026 MAC champs.
Zips were 7-24 this season. Big whiff so far by the former UA AD. Plus MJ led YSU to Horizon title game this year.
