with the glass floor debacle and the pot bust, Zips have clear road to Sweet 16. Their Kenpom luck # should rise

Thanks for setting this up!

where would the Zips be had the Abreu situation not happened? probably the ACC.

I'll be disappointed of he didn't accept the delivery and put it in the oven.

How Abreu-esque of him 😏

Going to be associate women's head coach at Arizona. Arizona head coach Becky Burke was at Buffalo prior.

Click on the photo and look at Zac's Final Four.

In 2022 we were +13.5 against UCLA, 2024 +12 vs Creighton, 2025 +14.5 vs Arizona This is our best chance

I believe we were -6.5 vs both Toledo and Kent in the MAC tournament. Both games came down to the wire.

Not only is the spread for us +7.5 I also find it interesting that Akron moneyline is currently only +240. On today’s NBA games the following underlined teams are more of an underdog than Akron on Friday: The wizards hosting the warriors, Nets hosting the Trail Blazers, Suns @ Boston, Mavs @ New Orleans, Clippers hosting the spurs.

I wanted to make a bracket group for us here. I have it set up on ESPN and you can have up to 3 brackets each. I encourage you to have Akron winning the whole thing as one of your three! https://fantasy.espn.com/tc/sharer?challengeId=277&from=espn&context=GROUP_INVITE&edition=espn-en&groupId=0cb75e53-4c2b-4693-84ae-48cd2ba88261

I have the zippy head cover, it replaced my HS golf Brutus buckeye one. It definitely is trying to look like zippy

💯

Definitely getting the Golf Club Head Cover and Zippy Puzzle. How cool are those?!

I know the MAC list was shared before, but here is a more complete list of what ~200 D1 men's basketball programs that way you can see how we compare to other top mid-majors. It should be noted that this list doesn't include private schools since they aren't subject to public record requests. https://www.extrapointsmb.com/p/here-s-what-it-costs-to-make-a-run-in-march-madness

Another great website for merch is: https://1870market.uakron.edu/. Last year they had some cool tourney exclusive stuff, I'll keep my eye out to see if they do anything unique this year again. Each purchase includes a donation to a UA Alumni Assoc. Scholarship.

Calhoun is also mentioned as a candidate for KS State but sounds like he would prefer Cinci.

One of the sides has a Fear the Roo Collective patch. Just ordered mine. Also ordering a GV Artwork shirt since it financially benefits the Zips as well.

When someone gets the hat, can you share pictures of it? There's just the one picture of Groce wearing it on the site, so it's hard to tell what's on the side and back.

Akron to the Sweet Sixteen?

Absolutely, I should have been more clear - I just mean finding a starting caliber post. It's highly unlikely they find someone as good as Amani right now in the portal. As you said, maybe someone already good enough on defense that they can develop offensively. I'll be curious to see what happens with Chabi, too.

Coach just took the beatdown stick to Tod on espn cleveland. Said the success is about preparation and hard work. Mentioned” “the other coach” said they were living a charmed life and dismissed it. We are so lucky to have him.
