MAC Player of the Year and Coach of the Year

So, the news is in, none of it a surprise.  Justin Moss is Player of the Year and Keno Davis is the Coach of the Year.

Those are really the only choices.  Moss is clearly the best player in the MAC and certainly the most productive.

As for Coach, I know that many Falcon fans hoped Coach Jans would have had a shot at the award. In a normal year he might have, and it certainly was a worthy season.

But you can't deny that Davis deserves the award.  Yes, BG was picked last in the East, but CMU was picked second to last ahead of only Ball State in the West (which is pretty much like being last), and they won the top seed and BG won the #5 seed.  Also, the program when Davis took over was in a terrible place and he has rebuilt it.  At BG, we were fortunate to never bottom out, like UT or CMU did.

Davis won 21 of 27 voters and would have had mine.

Congrats to all.
