Well… they beat San Diego by 1. That should be enough to at least put them in the middle of the Pioneer.

Is wasnt that long ago Weber was in that very same boat. All it takes is the right coach who can come in and bring in a program changing attitude and recruit the necessary athletes. The school actually investing in the program helps to.
