Dan previewed his MAC Award winners in an article two weeks ago and has now made his final selections along with his choices for the All-MAC 1st and 2nd teams.In Dan's other article he briefly reviews each 1st Round game for the MAC Tournament and makes his bold predictions.Check it all out over at VanDelaySports.com!FYI - For any of you MAC fans who cannot make the trip to Cleveland later this week I want to make sure you know that we will have several updates from Cleveland during the MAC Tournament. Dan and I will be providing news, notes, stats and articles from Cleveland on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday so keep checking back for updates! Quote
HeHateMiami Posted March 6, 2006 Report Posted March 6, 2006 No Romeo on the 1st-Team The writer makes a good point, but what do you guys think about that? Quote
Zips fan Posted March 6, 2006 Report Posted March 6, 2006 I think that All-MAC teams are often based upon the superstars of the league. Romeo is a great player and part of a balanced team. I think that Romeo would be a huge asset on any MAC team and is a valuable member; however, I would not get worked up over the selection. Romeo will be much happier with a MAC Championship than a first team selection. Quote
FearTheRoo Posted March 6, 2006 Report Posted March 6, 2006 I see Bowler and Haynes, but how you can put Haynes on the list and put Travis on the 2nd team makes no sense to me....and the writer doesn't explain/justifiy his/her reasoning. Quote
Valpo Zip Posted March 6, 2006 Report Posted March 6, 2006 Our team is so balanced to the extent that some people who come off the bench (like cedrick, preston, and peterson) are as good if not better than the starters and i also cannot say that Romeo is a better player than Preston or Dru or Nick or Cedrick etc... There is no standout in this team, but the team is a standout team ! That is why i am not surprised that no zips are first teamers.This makes me think, if KD was able to build a championship team with no stand out player and with Jer. Wood and Conyers out... what would he do in the next years when the recruiting becomes much easier ? Quote
FearTheRoo Posted March 7, 2006 Report Posted March 7, 2006 That is a great point. The problem with these awards as they recognize standout players. WHen you have a balanced attack like we do recognition is difficult. Quote
