I was just on the MAC site last night and was thinking that Battle might be the darkhorse selection, but I still expected it to go to Reed. Congrats to Battle, great player, and has really helped turn that program around.

Looking at the stats last night I really thought both John & Josh would be on the first team. Of the two I really don't see how they left John off. Reimold led the conference in scoring, and was our team leader in rebounding as well. I love them both, but definitely thought Reimold was the better of the two for the bulk of this season.

Congrats to everyone that was honored. It really hurts to not see any of our returning players even in the honorable mention category, but I also cannot say that I would expect to either.

For John Reimold to NOT get first team all MAC is a travesty.

No, Yoko Ono's input on "Double Fantasy" was a travesty. Reimold's omission is simply a minor injustice.

Flip, in that perspective, you are correct.

YOU ARE CORRECT SIR!

The coaches look even sillier for snubbing Reimold after he dropped the second highest point total EVER in the MAC tourney. Even Yoko would find that appaling

The media's obession with propping up Buffalo, 11-7 in conference, continues to baffle me.
