Hopefully all the new coaches in the league are an opportunity for more wins this year for the Zips.

That is, if we can assume that all 2nd year coaches show dramatic signs that they learned something from all of the mistakes they made their first year.

One can only hope....and pray.

[Z.I.P.]

Hopefully all the new coaches in the league are an opportunity for more wins this year for the Zips.

Temple, Miami, CMU, WMU, BGSU, UBuff. All trending downward. It could be a new era for teams like EMU, and possibly Akron. The relatively incompetent may have the advantage over the absolute incompetents. Let's see which category we filter into.

Z.I.P. you crack me up. I've never heard our hopes described quite like you have done. Now I find myself cheering for us to gain the status of 'relatively incompetent" so we can win against the "absolute incompetents". The worst part of it is that it all makes perfect sense to anyone who has seen us play this year.

Oh, and BTW, thanks for bringing home the championship in Santa Barbara. You did your job well.

I don't think you can say Miami is trending down after they went from 1-11 to the MAC champoinship. WMU probably underachieved this year not sure if they are going the wrong directionthough. If they have another one next year that might be a trend. Temple has had solid seasons recently. It depends on how they react to the new coach. UB and BGSU?

UB will probably struggle a little while. BG was young. Now if you want a trend,the Zips since 2006.
