  2. Unless I'm reading this stuff wrong it seems like UB and EMU are the cuprits here in games played AGAINST OU, WMU and Kent. Is that right???

  3. I always thought two things were going to ruin college sports for me. Gambling and paying the players directly. Not that I don't think that they have a right to get a gain out of what they're producing, but just flat buying teams doesn't get me excited for college sports any more. I will even admit I'm a little less excited for Akron season knowing that they have kind of bought their team as well. It's why soccer is my favorite sport at Akron and not just because they're good, but because I believe that it's about talent, evaluation and skill and not just money. Yes, I know that you still have to have some talent evaluation even with the money but the playing field is not even.

  4. One more season after this one and there's no way the school is going to expend the money to pay 2 women's hoops coaches.

  5. He's right that those schools do fit the profile well. Given the state of politics, I think Senators should focus on things other than the athletic alignment of their alma maters. I'm sure if there was mutual interest, these schools would have already joined the Big East.

  6. Buffalo was mentioned as well so 1/3 of the schools that played MAC basketball last season. That must explain why the conference was so down /s. Edit: More now that I think about it EMU if I recall was being investigated before. Maybe another school as well.

  7. I hate to lose this young man, but I am not as concerned as others. I question whether he had the speed to play today's LB position. We are losing players and it is saddening. Still we aren't alone. Toledo is headed for a major rebuild. Recently I touched base with an operations staff member formerly at UT. Candle asked him to join him at UConn. The pay raise was nearly double. Anyway he told me Candle has taken 22 UT players with him. Obviously Candle would not take any player that couldn't help, so these 22 were scholarship players who were expected to start or get significant PT at UT. Candle is following the plan that Cignetti executed at IU: take the best players, who you know, and build around them. Despite all this I expect UT to be good. They have a great MAC brand in football.

  8. They were also projected to finish 7th in the MAC preseason rankings so it's not like they were all that hyped in the first place. When it's all said and done I expect them to have a top 4-5 seed.

  9. I realize they have a history of not living up to expectations but I think they will be decent this year. The MAC schedule maker has done them no favors as they've started the season against OU, Miami, UMASS, PCCC and Akron. When it all settles out I think they'll be in Cleveland and could cause some trouble for some teams.

  13. These P4 coaches that have been gaming the system for years are all of a sudden outraged by the open lawless environment. It was much better for them when there were laws that kept the average Joe in check while they subverted the legal system themselves. The coaches are the reason we're in this mess.

  14. College basketball point shaving scandal ensnares 17 schools. Three of them are MAC schools, Western Michigan and shockingly, Ohio and Kent.

  15. Iona lost to Rider, which entered the night at 1-14. I'm not sure if Iona is battling injuries or what, but they have been nosediving the past couple of weeks.

  16. Zips lose 82-68 at UMass, ironically to another 3rd year coach who has turned his program around. Zips are now 10-31 in the MAC under Gensler. Just saying it can be done a lot better.
