Fun Fact
Josh Allen has a career 0-2 record against Eastern Michigan. He just couldn’t find an answer for the Eagles.

The reality of playing in the MAC or a smaller conference is most people aren’t going to care unless you’re doing something remarkable
Travis Steele has a message for Miami fans 😳
"We have the second-longest home winning streak in the country. We need to get more people here at the games. To me, it's totally unacceptable. We went 31-0 last year. It took us to go 20-0 before we started getting huge crowds... We need to sell this thing back out. If it's only gonna happen when we're 20-0 or 25-0, man, people are really spoiled around here."
Regardless of the result tonight, early returns tell me that EMU is going to be competitive in the MAC.
This is not your same EMU basketball program. We’re in good hands with Billy Donlon.
EMU will have a tall task ahead of them if Xavier is going to get every single foul call in the paint.
First media timeout:
EMU leads Xavier 7-4 and heading to the line for 2. Half court offense has looked good.
Yeah I’m not fully behind the “they just don’t have the resources” take.
You’re telling me someone couldn’t come in and inject life into the program and find a way to put together 9-10 win seasons? It’s not like they’re in a conference with Bama and Georgia here.

They have all they need. Almost beat top team in conference last week on the road. It’s execution and not folding when things don’t go your way early
Winning matters.
From what I’ve read EMU simply doesn’t have the resources/budget to compete at the top of the MAC in football compared to other schools.
Could a change of leadership change that? I don’t really know.
Also if he’s given the resources are we confident they’re contending to win?

I don't know what the football budget is at EMU but I just don't think they can spend even with the top tier of the Mac, I guess I would pose this question: Is it more CC or is it the lack of institutional support i.e. cash to spend on players/asst coaches?

I think they’re also afraid of taking risks. I’ll give credit to Creighton. He made EMU football worth talking about. EMU is thinking, what if they fire him and the replacement sends us back to 0-2 win seasons. They’re perfectly happy with 5-7 win seasons.
