Secrets of our success

So... I've got some theories as to why THIS is the time.... but check this out from the game notes press release:

• Darryl Clements played in his 100th career game against Toledo. With classmate Brian Moten, the pair is the first Falcon teammates to have played in 100 games since Brent Klassen, Len Matela and Keith McLeod all reached the mark in the 2001-02 season.

Consistency is key. I remember my first few years we kept getting Juco's to transfer in (Soler, Samarco). Which are ok as a quick fix, but to build a program you need guys like Moten and DC. They have been through the tough times, they deserve this and hopefully it's a sign of things to come.

Brian and DC deserve this. They have had to suffer through a couple of terrible teams and never batted an eye lash. These guys are true competitors and I am glad to see them having so much success now. Hopefully it aint over yet and we can ride them to another MAC crown, this time tourney version!

I agree. The lack of seniors has hurt this team for years.

One interesting note is that of the three seniors, two of them came to BG as transfers from another school.

Pretty sure that Moten & Clements were both 4 year guys weren't they? They would almost have to be to play in 100 career games. Nate is the only one that I remember being a transfer, from UNC-Wilmington, I believe.

They are. Though Moten sat out the first semester of his freshman year.

And you're right about Miller, too.
