Albany in Bracketology

[MRSGDG]

The last 24 hours was amazing. I've lit up Facebook with the news and hopefully can engage some alums who have been slow to UA athletics.

 

That said I don't think it's wrong to ask, "Ok, Albany leadership how do we leverage this success to move the needle?" We are at an amazing point. You can't expect streaks like this to last forever. If in 5 years we look back and we have the same facilities, conference, etc I think it'll be right to feel they squandered an amazing opportunity.

 

Similarly it's fair to ask SUNY what the heck is the plan. For years it looks like we have been playing down "SUNY" but then they open your supposed MIT equivalent campus called "SUNY Poly" because UA wasn't good enough. Well if raising the profile of "SUNY" was the goal SUNY Admin F'd up pretty good with this NCAA appearance where literally millions of Americans are filling out brackets and would see "SUNY" twice.

 

Play the game and win. Enjoy the moment. But also question, hey leadership are we going to leverage this amazing streak? Are we going to move the needle?

 

Let's not make this thread about the damn name....we have 1000 other threads about the name. Keep this about Albany Bracketology.

UAlbany coach Will Brown will be on with Mike Francesa at 3:45 tomorrow. I think he'll manage to keep the Sports Pope awake.
