Lehigh has been a strong program recently, and this was a solid win on the road.
Congratulations and best of luck moving forward......I think you will end up better than preseason polls predicted.
"Moving forward," a contemporary buzz phrase I hate even more than I hate ODU.
All of us are "moving forward" through time and space. None of us are moving backward. Thus, pointless/redundant language.
I promise not to harp on pointless/redundant language going "forward." Please "forward" all complaints and comments to:

Tomorrow, "going forward," I promise to post BEFORE Happy Hour.
This Bulldog post is bump-worthy
But, it appears Smitty came with no ill intent. And he's correct, this was a good road win. I haven't looked, where was Lehigh in any preseason rankings? Anywhere? "Receiving votes" or any of that?
