Northwood has some quite large players. One guy goes 299lbs

We ended up beating NU easily by sheer physical dominance, but that won't happen in our MAC games. Dugan had 24 points.

What that box score doesn’t show is all the minutes played by the new players. Often 4 frosh & sophmore on the floor getting their first college game minutes.

I thought #11 Squeaky Wilkins had nice first game as Bronco. Looks like he could be play LB for Lester

Anyone see 10 wins for this team this season? Not counting exhibitions?

Certainly more than 10 wins. Actual number of wins depends heavily if Brandon gets cleared to play.

This years Bronco team has several good outside shooters and I expect more “team” without waiting for TW to make a play like last couple years.

Inside game is my biggest concern.

RE: WMU vs Northwood for First Exhibition game
They will do better in MAC than most expect. Michael Flowers has a new role and he's the fastest on the team by far, give him some time. Josh Davis is playing with a minor injury he'll come into his own soon. Squeaky comes from a pretty good JC program. Duggan needs to make those easy 3' tip ins, he could have had 35 last week. Printy was making some good jumpers, its his time to step up. Johnson's knee and losing Moore is a bummer. I still think this new incoming class is the best we've seen in years. Judging one exhibition is a bit premature. Ferris came within mins of knocking off MSU last year. When you play 13-14 players, hardly time to give up on the entire season. Northwood will be a good GL conference team they have more size than most D2 squads.

It wouldn't be the first time in the Hawk era that an unheralded team surprised us. I'm not seeing it this time either, but he seems to have a knack for that type of season.

One big problem IMO is the top of the MAC this year could be really good.

RE: WMU vs Northwood for First Exhibition game
The trouble I see heading into this season is who is going to rebound the basketball. Seth is not a great rebounder but gets a decent amount because he is 7 feet tall. Josh is a good rebounder but is 6'5" and is out on the wings a lot. Other than those 2, who is going to get rebounds for this team?
