Something to note over the course of this season (and a reason for optimism despite what HU has lost to graduation from last year)...Polito wrote:solid brief write-up, and sounds reasonably fair to me
I love the mid-to-low pre-season rankings for HU - all the better to shock everyone
My best case scenario, outside of HU going ballistic and winning the whole thing , is for UNCW to win it all again and we say buh-bye to Keatts as he is destined to move on to a big time program - 3 NCAA's in 3 yrs in the CAA with Pitino pedigree = automatic P5 job
This will blow open the door for HU to go all out the following season '17-'18 when I think the program is positioned beautifully for it's long-awaited return to the big dance
I salivate at the thought of this staff recruiting with national spotlight
Last year: Hofstra picked 1st, UNCW 6th; they of course tied for the league regular season title.
This year: UNCW picked 1st, Hofstra 6th.
