I was looking on Yahoo Sports and noticed we are the worst Team in the conference!!!
This makes me feel sad and happy.

I am sad that we are the worst team in the MAC right now!!!

I am happy that we are currently at a bottom right now and can't go any lower!!!

The MAC has been weird so far. With Toledo, @ Kent State, @ Ball State, and Buffalo on deck, it's going to be really tough. Best case, we go 2-2 in that stretch.

We are nowhere close to being the worst team in the MAC. People need to relax, we're just two games into the conference schedule. Need we all be reminded that several years ago we started 0-4 in the MAC and then went on to win the MAC Tournament and a game in the NCAA Tournament.

+1

We ain't dead yet, but right now we are doing a pretty good job of faking it. ;-)

I'm as frustrated as many, but this is a good approach to take. Being at the Stroh Center Saturday reminds me that we need to continue to give OUr guys one of the big advantages that they have: The Ohio Bobcat faithful. The kids at BG Saturday played in front of what was announced to be 2000 fans, that in reality was more like 1000, and it was fairly quiet most of the game in my opinion.

Let's make sure they still get to keep that strong home court starting Wednesday.

When I looked on yahoosports.com we had the worst record in the whole conference. If the MAC Tournament were now we would be the last seed. Are we going to be there come March? I would say not. I really think that we only have upside from here on out.

Go Cats.

Both CBS and ESPN have our RPI at around 247 while Fiami's is about 290, so we're not the "worst" in the MAC. Nothing to text home about, tho.

I'm looking at the on-demand replay. Is it my imagination or did Toledo only dress 9 players?

Your imagination. They had 9 players in the rotation, the rest kept their warm ups on.

Thank you Miami. I think it only going to get better from here! Do we have 9 players?

It can't get worse. Ohio is the only league team without at least one win.

Hate to be a glass-half-empty kind of fan, but I will be surprised if this team gets a league win at all.

Hunter had a 5-win season that was followed by an 18 win season and then a 20 win season. Luckily bad times don't last forever. Saul just needs to re-stock the cupboard with quality d-1 players.

Maybe we are becoming a "hockey" school (like Fiami)? Yeah I know it's "Club", not NCAA D1, but it's good stuff. 24-4-2. #5 in the country ACHA (and likely move up after dominating sweep of #10 Iowa State), and now top of the CSCHL. Was just checking out the rest of the year schedule - not many conflicts with BBall at home. Conflict with Miami BBall game at home w/hockey at ACHA Nationals tourney (in Cleveland).

If I'm going to drive over an hour one way to cheer on the Bobcats, any sport, then I want to see: Effort, Energy, Pride, Leaders, Contributors, Skilled Offense, Tough Defense (I'll toss in good sound system for home games). Know I will see that in Bird, plus a packed house full of Bobcat fan energy. Not so much this year in the Convo........and that is a shame.
