7 Wins

[Dane Pound]

Were what we had for the entire season in Iati, Mike Black and Blake Metcalf's first season at Albany in 2009 (7-24.) They've got 7 wins now in early December.

Every win in OOC play will probably help come bracketbuster selection time.

Gotta admit I'm very surprised. I was convinced that after losing Aronhalt and Suero, we'd be hurting offensively. Hooley has been a revelation. So poised, smart, and athletic. Evans has been nice too...never seems flustered. And of course Iati, coming outa no where to become UAlbany's version of Ray Allen...if Mark Jackson was in the building, he'd be sayin, "Hand down, man down" quite a bit.

It is a LONG way until "I told you so". The only thing that really matters is that one ncca bid; but I did say last spring that UA would be fine and perhaps better without Suero. And right now we certainly look like a better team then last year!

I knew they would be better defensively, but the main question was the offense. Black and Iati have stepped it up and made up for the losses of Suero and Aronhalt.

I'm not sure about you guys, but personally, i am VERY excited about having Peter Hooley for the next four years. He's smart, savvy and just gets it done..plus at 6 4, he's pretty big for a point guard in the AE.
