Update: nope

 

I'm not really surprised. Some voters throw a vote to a mid-major, even if they might not think they're really top 25, just to give a school some recognition that might not otherwise be getting attention. It seems those votes are going to High Point, Navy, and Santa Clara instead. Probably because they think giving Miami votes is already drawing enough attention to the MAC.

 

If I'm to shed my Zippy colored glasses for a minute I can't really argue with Santa Clara. They probably should be ahead of us. High Point I don't think should be, but they're close enough that an argument could at least be made. There is no reason that Navy should be getting votes if we're not. That's the lone outrageous one IMO.

Oh I am not arguing, I was just speculating maybe we were next on that list, with SFA being one getting votes last week that took a loss.

Slap on the wrist for Steele.

The disappointment of Travis' mom having to watch her son still throwing public temper tantrums at 44 years of age is better than any fine.

Yes, especially once you consider his wife's family has a $4.5 billion net worth. That would be like you or I getting fined $1.

Still can't believe he wasn't ejected.

I do. Embarrassing behavior that makes the MAC looks bad.

Actually, that is a different McCaw family worth 4.5 billion.  But her family is definitely in the private jet sphere.

I could care less about how the MAC looks. The MAC does enough to embarrass themselves, including their handling of this situation. However, I'm tired of the kid glove treatment of Miami OH this year. Schedule, officiating, opponent mistakes - everything has favored them this year. If Steele is ejected in that WMU game, do they win? If he's suspended for tomorrow night, do they lose?

agree with LGZ.  Couldn't care less how MAC looks or what is good for them.  Evan engaged in far less egregious behavior and was ejected from a game.  However, this had the desired results for Travis:  attention, brand-building, and further inducement for the Miami fan base.

This is why the best they deserve at-large wise is Dayton.

[zippy5]

again, who cares. If they get an at large (or don't) it's because we beat them. I'm cool either way.
