I agree with Dave. I don't think he made this comment arrogantly, at all. I
heard as a very matter of fact statement.
It's the same thing I believe about Cornell. Cornell won this year with much
less talent than other ECAC teams, but a large part of the reason why they win
is because the program has a reputation of winning, and the player believe they
are SUPPOSED to be the best team.
Not to mention that I think Parker may have just been retaliating to Michigan's
lack of conciliatory comments.
