No kidding. Great to hear him speak so kindly. BGSU certainly has a lot of national respect. Let's just hope next year we're be back in the NCAA Tourney. I'm pumped for Ball State...but don't want them stealing our thunder on the national stage.
Ball State already stole our thunder when it comes to the tournament. And really, we need to have some thunder stolen from us. It is the only way that the MAC is going to start getting some respect and get more than one team in the tournament. I believed that we should have been in before TCU and Villanova this year, and the way both teams got beat yesterday, I firmly believe I was right. Having both of those teams lose along with Ball State winning the way they did, it tells the committee in the future that it might be better to take the regular season winner of the MAC over a third team from a "mid-major" conference like the Mountain West, or a bubble team from a major conference like the Big East, SEC or Big 12.
