If you look back at last year the one thing you could count on from them every game is very poor shot selection (chaz t., lorenzo k.) and very bad defense. Coach is stressing much better shot selection and they're playing that same zone when Callero was at Seattle. Teams that can't shoot may struggle, and there's a fair share of not so good shooting teams in the BW this year.

Channelcats	Matadors Third?	#2	[url]	[-]
Member Posts: 12 10/29/09 3:51 PM	I don't think the Matadors will finish that high...6th or 7th is more like it.

Member Posts: 767 10/29/09 3:56 PM	From the same article... Anderson (LBS) Austin (UCR) Harden (UCD) Johnson (UCSB) Payne (UCD) Wise (UCI) The only surprise, and it's a minor one, is Johnson. Not that he doesn't have credentials, but it is unusual to see a player tabbed that has not played for his team yet. Edit: no seniors on this team.

LB BB	i would have had Robinson instead of Johnson.	#4	[url]	[-]
Member Posts: 122 10/29/09 4:27 PM	As a freshman, Robinson stepped up bigtime in league games. Didn't he lead, or come close to leading, the league in rebounding for league games only? And average some 13 pts. in league games?

Member Posts: 221 10/29/09 4:47 PM	I wish the Coaches still had a poll. It'd be interesting to see how their picks would differ (or not) from the media. Channelcats wrote: "MATADORS THIRD? I don't think the Matadors will finish that high...6th or 7th is more like it." Most early publications agreed with you Channelcats. I believe the loss of key players last season not derailing the Dor's is the reason for their high placement now.

Member Posts: 159 10/29/09 5:48 PM	I would have put TJ on instead of Johnson. Orlando was the best player on a dreadful team, he should have to prove himself at UCSB first!

Coach Bob Williams, one Big West title in 11 seasons.

matagrad	I'd put Streeter over Payne	#9	[url]	[-]
Member Posts: 338 10/29/09 8:49 PM	He led the BW in AS/TO ratio(ok, Payne was 2nd), and made over 42% of his 3 pt shots.

Member Posts: 286 10/30/09 3:53 AM	Robinson was 2nd in rebounding in conference play with 7.8 rebs a game. Overall, Robinson was 7th with 6.2 rebs a game. Big West Standings from the DCI NCAA Rankings from the DCI Big West Statistics

CSUN has no players listed, yet picked third. If they finish that high or better (and I believe they will) the Dor's will have a first team selection. I'm starting to worry about how good CSF might be. Being picked so low will surely motivate them.

ZSparky	Robinson	#14	[url]	[-]
Member Posts: 341 10/30/09 1:16 PM	Among returning players, and using the stats for conference games only (the fairest way since there is considerable difference in SOS and because the all BW team is based on play in league games), Robinson ranked #5 in Points per Game, #1 in rebounds per game, and #1 in FG %. Further, he was not even a starter until LB's 8th conference game of the season. Robinson IS one of the 6 best players in the league.

Member Posts: 105 10/30/09 2:38 PM	The first team rankings don't always tell you much about the strength of a team. UOP finished with no first team players last year but was quite nearly the conference champion.

Member Posts: 160 10/30/09 6:08 PM	Your comment made NO sense, but I will reply anyway. Last year I did not post that I thought Austin should be a Pre-season pick in the Big West. I just said Austin was gonna be one of the best players when he became eligible. Boy was I off base! As for johnson - he had a good frosh year - BUT - so did TJ and he did it in the Big West-so i believe he should get the recognition. Now as far as my man-crush-I support UCR and also have a crush on Larry G. - but I also have said plenty of Very positive things about other players on many teams. Here are a few of my favorites-Streeter, Payne, J. Johnson, Nunnally, T.J., Anderson, Wise... Don't be a hater-be a congratulator!!!!

Coach Stewart's teams have often seemed to be less than the sum of their parts. He hasn't shown any ability to put together a winning team - I'll believe it when I see it
