That's somewhat of a bold statement. That doesn't happen too terribly often, but when it does, I'd wager that the team possessing (at least) 2 First team members won the league title, by a fair margin.

Are we talking about a three-peat, four peat, or a minimum eight-peat for the Aces in the upcoming seasons?

Since there are 5 times as many UNI fans as EU fans on here are the Aces the winners by default?

I have to agree, I consider myself quite the optimist, hell any Aces fan that has stayed true this last 10 years had to be somewhat of an optimist or severely depressed......BUT even I had to roll my eyes at that statement. I hope ACECARD is right, but I'd personally be happy with one of them becoming all conference at all (1st, 2nd or 3rd team) in their four years. It's not like we've ever been known for recruiting and developing top flight big men. However, everything I hear about the incoming freshmen are very good, but they are still freshman and no one knows how they'll pan out.

4th

Or tied with Creighton at 10-8 in conference play for 4th? But wasn't CU seeded above UNI in the tournament by virtue of the better overall record? I can't remember for sure. Not that it really matters that much either way in the grand scheme of things.

:Stupid: I'm going to have fun and join this game and say that the 6 freshman UNI has brought in this year will be 1st team All Valley before they are through, too. That's right, they'll be so good the conference will be forced to change the format of the All-Valley teams to include all SIX. :dance: :Yea!: :bounce: :Bam: :Beer: :Cheers:

I like the way you think.

It sure seems to me that the all-Valley teams in some other sports (baseball) have more members than the number of players on the field/court at one time

I went with UNI just because of what they showed last year at the end of the season.
