With respect :(, Rihana.

For UH these are the facts, no players on the All-Wac Freshmen team, and 1 returning All-Wac First Team player (Estes).

When ESPN scours the rosters and looks and disects all of the WAC team’s rosters and the returning star players in the league for the 2009 season, do you think they see many from UH? No. Do they see Nevada with seven (+2 from the All-WAC freshmen team) , Boise with six (+5 from the All-WAC freshmen team) and Louisiana with 5 (+4 All-WAC Freshmen) as the predominate teams in the WAC with the most proven players? Yes, definitely.Compared to the aforementioned teams, what do they see as proven players or stars on UH roster…very little. Right?

So subsequently, the teams that have the most star returning players should receive the most television exposure. Right? If your a television executive and looked at Nevada’s returning star players (7+2) and 66 returning lettermen for the 2009 season wouldn’t you give Nevada top billing over UH, which has only 1 star player returning…I would think so. So, no I don’t think UH is being slighted by appearing in lesser ESPN games than Boise, Nevada and Louisiana Tech. The facts speak for themselves. If someone said if it would be surprising if UH finished 4th or 5th would that make them sound cynical? Maybe. But if you looked at the players returning they’re are more of the star players on the other team’s rosters than of UH. If your factor the players from the All-Wac freshmen team, players that have one year of development and look at UH freshmen players that have very little game experience experience there’s a huge gap there, too. So the bottom line is that UH has they’re work cut out for them–imo, next year’s going to be tough journey.
