Just re-read the review. And comparing the review to the opinion of posters is that most see us going with about a ten man rotation. And, that means three players won't be part of the rotation and that seems reasonable. But based upon what I saw at the Open Practice and what I've read about the team, all 13 players looked good enough to play. I realize that injuries are a way of life, but knowing that there is only 200 minutes to be divided up in a game. The natural tendency is to go with experience, but at the same time keep the frosh happy and encourage them to return.
Anyone have an opinion on this that they would like to share?

I honestly have no idea.

Guy, after listening to the latest podcast, I believe that the Top Five MAAC teams will be: Quinny, Iona, Marist, Merrimack and Manhattan. Although Quinny is the favorite, Guy brings us back to Rider from last season. Manhattan is my Dark Horse, non Iona favorite, but naturally that's JAG. We're only about a month away from exhibition games and I'm hopeful that Iona will have one.

And if MAAC history has shown us anything, there will be 1-2 teams we don't expect that will surge toward the top. I'll have all my MAAC picks next ep of the pod.

What is your early take on the Jaspers? Mid-pack, though I realize that can be said for about 6 teams LOL
