Just for giggles I checked out our opponents fan boards, some BGSU fans were very jealous of our team and program, though that lead to infighting and telling those guys to go to OHIO.  Akron and Buffalo were both interesting in how we would get praise from some, but then rationalizing from others.  Where they would talk about what their team could have done in the NCAAs, which was quite funny coming from Akron fans whose team lost in the 1st round of the NIT.  But you also had people saying we were only the 3rd or 4th best team in the conference even though we won the MAC Tourney beating both of those teams and have won two NCAA games.  Just thought it was interesting to read and happy that I am not in their position.

No kidding. Dambrot would not only not have given props to us he would have taken a few not too subtle swipes at us.

(is it a foul using the word "not" three times in a sentence?)

I've also noticed Jon Smith saying some nice things in his interviews about how the team is trying to represent the MAC well.
