Oats is MAC Coach of the Year

I know this isn't going to play well in our base, but I'm going to tell you it's probably the right call.

Most years, the Coach of the Year is synonymous with "most improved team."  Based on that measure, Huger wins in a landslide, after being picked last and then finishing #3.

But when you have the coach of the team that has been ranked most of the year, would qualify for an at-large bid and is the best team in 15 or 16 years in this conference, then you have to recognize that guy as a pretty good coach, too.

I don't think you can argue it.  Tip your hat.  Our guy had a good year, too, and might have won most other years.  He gave us a great year when we were competitive and relevant for the first time in a long time.

Looking forward to more.
