Bull Rundown Daily Open Thread: Mack Picked to team Rice

Almost to the end of the work week, readers, there is a light at the end of the tunnel! Still no UB teams in action today, but hopefully a good chat here will keep you occupied.

The Rundown

Today in Bull: Still nothing :(

Yesterday's News: Matt and Robby had takeaways from Men's Basketball's 76-64 win over Ball State.

From the Fanshots: The University of Michigan intends to hire former UB Athletic Director Warde Manuel, #ForeverABull and all that. Thanks to the mystery MAC ESPN deal pushing Men's Basketball to Friday, UB Wrestling's match vs. Binghamton was pushed back to a 2 PM start time. Men's Tennis coach Lee Nickell had an interview at the half of Men's Basketball's match, give it a watch.

On the Docket: Matt will have a Men's Basketball piece examining some of the overarching storylines heading into the latter half of the season. He'll also have a preview of Men's and Women's Tennis ahead of their competitions this weekend. We'll also have a football recruiting piece. Finally, if we can find some heat sheets we'll have a piece highlighting Track and Field at the Penn State Invite.
