If you are Groce are you happy and sad at the same time. I mean you are the third choice at this point.

Still surprised Shaka turned Mike down...I thought that would be a good fit.

If Akron wins the Championship game and takes the Zips to the sweet 16 is he the third choice instead of Groce?

Could be. Who do you think would be the new number two candidate to bump Shaka down to number three?
(in your hypothetical, you aren't suggesting that Shaka came back and took the Zips to the sweet 16 are you? There is no way that would bump him down to the third spot.)

Ohio just added a 6'8 swingman transfer from Missouri to their already athletic roster.

Plus 6'4" shooting guard Caris LaVert from Pickerington. He was amazing in the state D-1 championship game.

Terry Bowden. Keith Dambrot. Rick Rembielak. Chuck Amato. Terrell Buckley. Jim Tressel. How ya like dem apples, Terry Pluto?! This is AKRON!

If Groce and Cooper return, I fear we may be second best again next year. puke.gif

From what I remember we finished 1st...Ohio U was 3rd.

2nd best was Buffalo...

I could care less about the MAC regular season championship! And in seasons where we won the MACC, no one else did either. It's a consolation prize and only bought us a first round NIT loss. And besides, we've now been there and done that.

Keeping this on-topic, do you think anyone from OU cares they finished third in the MAC regular season? Of course not! They will remember it as the best season in their program's history.

I want post season wins and preferably multiple ones. This team has the talent. Anything less is underachieving anymore.
