JS you are right on about one thing - SHU is improving.

First, the SHU women already have 2 wins over Big East teams (Providence and Syracuse). They are now the favorite to win the NEC and grab the NCAA bid. With Rozzitti in Hartford having another great season, the story this March will be UConn, Hartford and Sacred Heart!

As for the men, they are maybe one more season away from challanging for the NEC, but so I wouldn't schedule them soon if I were a FU fan. With Trim, Frye, Hobson, Granto, and a healthy Henley (plus Big Deli in the wings), The Pioneers will soon challange the rest of the state for bragging rights as the "Best non-Big East team in Connecticut." They have no seniors of consequense this year and will be even better next season. Watch out for them in 2006.

As for your suggested conference change, that wouldn't do FU or anybody any good. Furthermore, SHU isn't going anywhere.

Yes, They are definitely a much more improved that last years. I have seen every game but one this year. Next year's class includes Savloski (I will hold out judgement on him till I actually see him play or practice.) & 2 guards (Ryan Litke from Windsor, CT & Chauncey Hardy of Xavier of Middletown). They are said to be the two best guards coming from Ct.

As far as them joining the MAAC, They were turned down originally, I can't see them jumping over. The NEC is a good fit for them right now.

As far as the woman go, They have everything in place to go to the tourney this year. I would love to see the make the NCAA tourney. I would be great for the kids there. They have never really had that kind of success.
