Well now that we are only days away from the start of another season shouldn't we begin to make our predictions on wins and losses??? I will go with 10-19. I see us better and improving our overall play, but still feel we will have trouble scoring to win consistently. Good luck and lets open with a win!!!!!

15-14.
I really think this team "gets it". Our athleticism is leaps and bounds beyond what it has been since the scandal and the new guys have really bought into Schmidt's program. We'll probably be up and down, but I am eternally optimistic when it comes to the Bonnies.

I can't convince myself that it can win any more than 13 games this year. The team should do well in the non-conference, but there are few if any conference games we can automatically count. I think we can get maybe 4, but there are almost no slouches in the conference this season, aside from maybe Duquesne.
I'll say 11-18.

14-15, including a few big upsets. We'll have a winning record the following season.

I can the team winning between 7 and 8 non-conference games, because the schedule is one of the weakest in recent years...Then Aten play rolls around, and its a whole new ball game. The team is just 4-36 in their last 40 road games in the league, so almost always count all away games as losses...I think we'll get one one the road this year, maybe two, and win a pair of games at home in the league....I'll say 12 wins with 17 losses.
This team is still in the midst of a whole rebuilding process, and we lost three solid, senior players. I know people think that Lee, Relph and Z could be dogs...and they could be...but they could handle Aten play, and Mike and Z were Aten players...We'll see what this team has, but I think it will be a season with ups and downs, and hopefully we can slide into A.C and set ourselves up for a nice season next year.

I hope I am closer this year than in the recent past. I'm going for a 15-14 season.

I can't believe this but I just went over our schedule and see us 16-13(6-10). This really seems out of wack but I guess I'm the eternal optomist!

I am in line with sneakers, something like 13-16 with some nice upsets and an A 10 birth. Looking for us to become legit in the A 10 next year.

I'm going to keep from making any predictions this year since I have been setting my expectations much too high in the past. I'm simply crossing my fingers for double digit wins...I'll leave it upon everyone else to predict after that.
What's nice to see this year that we haven't seen in 5 years is the overall optimism from this board. The boo birds who predict 4-8 wins along with gloom and doom are beginning to migrate elsewhere.
Go Bonas!

I am optimistic, as well, but it's hard to fault the "boo birds" for predicting 4-8 wins over the last several years. After all, they turned out to be right. In any event, predictions are what you think is going to happen, not what you would like to see happen. I'm more pleased to see that the wildly overly optimistic predictions seem to be fewer. I'm still waiting for someone to go to 18 or 19 wins, though.

I feel strongly that we can win 18 or 19 with a slight outside shot at 20 and an NIT bid. This is with only 1 loss in OOC play and a few surprises in the RC against the A10. We will then not only make the A10 tourney but also win a first round game against a top 15 ranked Xavier team. Where the heck did my snooze button go? Ok now that I'm done dreaming, I'll go with 10 to 13 wins this season and a spot in the A10 tourney. I know that just making the tourney does not seem like much but it will definitely help us down the road in the coming years. This will be a year of ups and downs and overall will be a year to gain some all around experience.
