Checking in on the… MEAC
Posted by rtmsf on January 23rd, 2009JC of HBCU Sports Blog is the RTC correspondent for the MEAC and SWAC conferences.
Things are beginning to take shape in the MEAC, and if you followed the conference at all last season, you know that it means absolutely nothing. Morgan State and Coppin State are exactly who we thought they were. If you asked at this time last season who would appear in the conference finals, one of those teams would have been on your list for a bust down back to Division II, let alone an appearance in the big dance.
This year, the Sunshine State is having an impact on the conference picture, and that could mean dark clouds for many teams come tournament time.
THIS WEEK – You have to watch out for the Florida A&M Rattlers and the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats. Both teams were pushovers in 07-08, but they are in third and fourth place respectively and both have been the victor in five of their last ten games.
