UMKC a really good basketball team
There's been a lot of fingers pointed at Penn State for scheduling the Kangaroos of Missouri-Kansas City as an OOC basketball foe. Many people who are clueless have never heard of UMKC. You may be thinking that The Maestro is one of these people but I assure I am not one of them but I will say I may or may not be one of them and I am definitely one of them. Let's take a look at how good UMKC is before we point fingers for scheduling scum-of-the-earth opponents.
2005-2006 "Mid-Con" Preseason Rankings:
1. Oral Roberts
2. Valparaiso
3. IUPUI
4. Western Illinois
5. UMKC
6. Oakland
7. Southern Utah
8. Chicago State
9. Centenary
There, you see? UMKC is clearly a solid team. Being in the middle means you are ready to move up and you are not the worst team in the conference!!! Clearly, Oral Roberts and Valpo and IUPUI and Western Illinois are enormous contenders on the national level. They have all fought to win the NCAA title but because of the facists that run the NCAA b-ball tourney, the smaller conferences are repressed out of fear. North Carolina fears UMKC. Duke would NEVER schedule someone as deadly as Oral Roberts. Centenary will rip your lungs out with a claw-hammer if you don't watch your back. Would Arizona schedule someone as powerful as Chicago State? Get a grip on reality.
Here's a look at the preseason all-conference team:
First Team
Brandon Cole, IUPUI
Quinton Day, UMKC
Caleb Green, Oral Roberts
Ron Howard, Valparaiso
Dan Oppland, Valparaiso
Ken Tutt, Oral Roberts
Second Team
Ali Berdiel, Valparaiso
George Hill, IUPUI
David Jackson, Western Illinois
Mohamed Kone, Valparaiso
Larry Owens, Oral Roberts

You WISH you could guess what Quinton Day is gonna do right now.
Quinton Day is a man amongst boys and dominates all competition. I know all about him because I am smarter than all of you. Moldo's helpless Panthers are afraid of Quinton Day but Penn State welcomes tough competition and is not scared of IUPUI or Western Illinois.
Last year UMKC went 5-11 in the Mid-Con Conference. How could they do better than that???? Look who they had to play! They don't play crappy teams like GANNON or ROBERT MORRIS or DOO-KANE like Pitt does.
They are the Kangaroos for a reason. Ever fight a kangaroo? A kangaroo would punch you in the face sooooo quick!!!
