Bob - Old Town, Maine Question: Who do you think will win the America East conference this season? Answer: Hey Bob. I do not like to make predictions about things like that. I will say that I think we have a team that can definately contend for the title. We have the right guys that can get the job done and I believe in them, but we are going to need to take it one game at a time. Jim Dowe - Bangor, Maine Question: Joe, How has the transistion from coaches gone this year? Are there a significant differences in the styles of Coach G and Coach Woodward? Answer: Hi Jim. The transition between coaches went as smooth as it could have I think. I was very pleased when I heard Coach Woodward was going to be taking over. I understand why Coach G left this program and I think that Mr. Nero made the best decision when he hired Coach Woodward. He knows the guys, he knows how we play, and we know him. I think that it was a win-win situation for everybody. He has also done a great job this season. He and Coach G are very similar in the type of basketball they want to play. I think that the biggest difference between the coaches is that Coach Woodward likes to press more so than Coach G. We are constantly mixing up defenses and presses to try and get as many easy baskets as possible.
