You should be careful what you wish for, it would be very difficult for us to beat them in both the MAC and NCAA tourneys!

In my wish world, they lose on Thursday.

That's got to be about a 4 hour flight from Sac to Ohio/Mich. It will be kinda nuts for them if they have consecutive-week games out here. I wonder if they would stay for the week and find a practice facility or make 4 long flights out and back within the space of a week. Then again it may not be much different than some of the long bus trips in the MAC. They will also have a couple of payday games on the schedule at who knows where. I'm sure they will try to keep those closer to home. As I understand it, they will be incorporated into the MAC schedule already this fall.

https://www.sacbee.com/sports/article314720844.html “This announcement represents a transformational moment for Sacramento State Athletics and positions our university for unprecedented growth and visibility while strengthening our ties to the Sacramento region and beyond,” Wood said in the email. “Our Hornets will compete on the national stage, bringing enhanced exposure to our university, our students, and our community.” Adding U. Nebraska-Omaha would go a long way toward bridging the gap 😁 https://www.csus.edu/ - I guess they go by CSUS : Cal State Univ. Sacramento

There are 37 at-large bids in the NCAA tourney. Miami currently sits at #22 in the AP poll. If they only lose in the MAC tourney they should still be in the top 37 ; not saying they wouldn't get significantly snubbed however. As things stand now, if we meet them in Cleveland I believe they would be favored.

Football success or basketball success - pick one. Kinda what it feels like.

Ocker, Melody, Zban. I'm sure I had read some of the others. Nice thread resurrection!

Agree, especially if they pony up comparable buy-in money. It has become expensive to join an elite conference like the MAC lol.

Right? If only the hundreds of fans who attend games had an online community where they could discuss Zips sports, the athletic dept., fan experiences, the university, etc. and form a virtual fan council...

Travis Steele is mentioned as a candidate for KState in an ON3 newletter email I received. I'd imagine he may have several opportunities to move after this season.

Close, but it's from a different Arby's, taken myself 😂

But hopefully he can maintain his love for the place.

Dude is set. Hopefully he has a heart for supporting his alma mater to some extent.

No, but it's close to San Francisco and Lake Tahoe which were nice when I was there.

California in November? That would be like our bowl game. As good as Detroit or Boise in December.

Social media is the rumor mill that keeps on giving: associated speculations are that Ohio & Miami (together) and SBC are kicking tires with each other, as well as Toledo and MWC once the financial dust settles on NIU's transfer.

He'll be so surprised at the changes made to the JAR since he coached here. Or not.

sounds legit if Brett McMurphy's reporting it. not that it really affects us...😑

Which is 5:00 Central 🤔

$3.5M/school, a nice raise for NIU but a lot will go for football travel.

They're just killing time until spring football.

Definitely an attempt at signaling and auditioning for the BEC 😉

Enrique II, is that you?!

Goodrich and 'Zips marketing' should work with BH to make it a great atmosphere for a watch party with good seating and viewing. It's a good location with easy access and parking in downtown.
