  1. How nice would Steve McNess look on this team. Going with Thornton and/or expecting Tavari to take a big step was a big miscalculation.
  2. Hard to adjust when you don't have the personnel to fix things. Teams triple Freeman and play off of Ali and Tribble. The rest of the team fires up bricks and takes dumb, early shots. The underclassmen don't talk on D and run through the motions during their offensive sets. I need way less Dawson and more Prather. He's at least active on offense.
  3. I agree with this. Akron lost to St Bonny on a neutral court and they are a mid pack A10 team. Martin is an excellent coach and will be a great add to the conference. The MAC can't stop now. They need to be aggressive and grow the footprint of the conference.
  4. How is that possible when he dunked on a guy a few games ago? Unless contested dunks is a separate category?
  5. 3891 Can I trade in the Wilson bobblehad for a Luie in a suit bobblehad? If it's a Wilson playing pick-up ball I reserve my right to change
  6. I've mentioned this before and it's been discussed that the staff is trying to find value players with more than 1 year of eligibility. The JUCO kids are getting squeezed at the P5 level. There's talent to be found at that level. Bill Snyder created a program at K State with JUCO kids.
  7. Great to see the guards step up in a major way. Thornton, Tribble, and Scott did a great job defensively in the second half. Thought Thornton did a little bit of everything and does a great job getting the team to play at proper pace in the half court. Scott had his best game as a Zip. Hope to see his confidence grow from this. Agree with the comments that Tribble was a difference maker on both ends. He kept the Zips close when needed. Freeman is so fun to watch. How many W will this team run off? Excited to see as they should look dominant a lot in league play.
  8. Who knows how this class shakes out but they definitely got bigger in a lot of positions.
  9. Starting to see a trend from last year to this year. Most of the contributions from the portal on d line and front 7 came from high performing FCS or Juco kids. Looks like he's keeping that approach and applying it to the o line. It's an interesting approach as going the p5 route has been more miss than hit. If you're good at the G5 level chances are a P5 is grabbing you. Still need 2 QBs at a min to come in and compete in spring ball.
  10. Does Akron have a guard that can create a shot for himself? If not this team will be a repeat of last year's.
  11. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/game/_/gameId/401588590
  12. Akron's punter might be the worst I've ever seen and that's saying a lot.
  13. Really feel happy for the team. I've played on some really good teams and some really bad teams. When you're a part of a bad team getting a W like this validates all of the work you've been putting in. It reminds you why you are up at the crack of dawn and getting in your lift, reviewing film, taking extra reps, sacrificing your social/family life, craming in your studies during odd hours of the day. And don't forget rest and recovery. This victory will have a carryover effect for the program. Maybe not this year (Tough to see another win on the schedule) but hopefully in the off-season. Regarding the game: I love it when I read that people hate the play calling when we lose and love it when we win. I did see some minor adjustments (12 personnel already mentioned) but it was mostly the players making plays finally. Once Kent's WR went out the game flipped. Kent Sucks and will always Suck Go Zips!
  14. Totally agree! Ok Taj= Carlton Jackson?
