SI Article
Some great stats in this article to define how much we should appreciate our team, the coaches and all the people behind the bench helping this program.
325th in the nation in height based on playing time.
222nd in experience.
337th in bench minutes.
And yet we are 38th in defense.
How do we keep defying the odds?
Those stats alone should make Archie NCOY.

NCOY? Can't even win A10 COY
I agree, I know he wasn't going to win it, but it was a shame he was trimmed of the final list of candidates for the NCOY.

Interesting article about Jeremiah Bonsu, who was mentioned in the SI article.

The article sets up well talking about the massive amount of players lost from last season and this season. The talk about 2 senior starters graduating(DMO and Kavs), they talk of two players tranferring(Price and Gavs), they talk of one player being declared ineligible(Big Steve), they talk of two players being kicked off the team(no names needed here) and they talk about two transfers who's seasons were either short or never got off the ground(Bass and Rogers).
That's unbelievable amount of adversity right? Through all of that they failed to account for one missed player. A rather important one. The guy who led us to Veectory over OSU. From this point forward news media, please don't leave off the player that made the most important shot in modern UD history.

I kept thinking that also. Why can't the National media get it right?

How does no one ever mention that we're doing all of this with only 1 senior and mostly sophomores and freshmen?? Could the future look any brighter right now?
