MAC Media Day--2013

The MAC league site has Media Day notes.

Speaking of preseason polls, BC is last in the ACC poll.

As you know, Coach Molnar is recruiting freshmen and building for the future. That approach will necessarily mean UMass will take its knocks for the first couple of years. Charlie Weis at Kansas is taking a different route.
