Not TP, but according to Verbal Commits we've offered JUCO 6'4" 2G Mason Costello from Indian Hills CC.

This. I think 5500 (including amenities and loges) is the perfect size. And make it a basketball arena; not ice hockey. -

Love GR & Van Andel Arena. I let myself in & self-toured it just as they were close to finishing construction. Long time ago now. -
Unfortunately I'm not even considering him when contemplating next season. I was excited to see him play this season to see what he brings to the court but he barely gets in even during garbage time... which we've had plenty of this year. Once a Zip always a Zip & we all have nothing but love for our players, but I think we're all expecting him to hit the TP when the season's over. Transfer down & enjoy your college playing days.

Good point. This year I'm glad we'll get our "Cleveland legs" under us vs. Buffalo as opposed to jumping right into the semi-finals vs. either Kent or Ohio.

Being 6'8", hopefully with a good off season of work Oggie can play a stretch-4 type role next year. That'd give us PG: Sharron(6'0") / Perkins(6'0") G: Head(6'3") / Henderson(6'5") (Henderson may start & be MAC Freshman of the Year next year - the dude is crazy good) G: Eric(6'6") / Halligan(6'5") P: Oggie(6'8") / MMK(6'6") C ??? / Barre(6'10") We need a starting ~25 mpg big for next year.

With WMU & Miami both building new arenas, CMU, Kent, and Akron will be the only schools left in the MAC using glorified high school gyms as arenas. -
I think we're going to need two post players in this year's TP class.

I'm a big LeBron fan but I'll admit he is kinda... eccentric. (He was world famous as a teenager so it's understandable). When KD left for Duquesne LeBron wrote a letter to UA endorsing his former high school coach Dru Joyce Sr. for the job. When Dru was passed over he felt disrespected & I think that's when LBJ put some emotional distance between himself & UA. Hopefully he gets over it. I'm crossing my fingers he moves back to Akron (at least part time) after he retires & gets involved in the community like his high school friends Romeo Travis, Sian Cotton, & Willie McGee have done. Those guys could be living in condos on a beach somewhere but they're all involved in various aspects of STVM/iPromise enterprises. (So are Josh & John Williams, btw.) Yeah. The poor iPromise kids largely come from... suboptimal... home environments so though they've been given every publicly-funded academic advantage known to man they still have failing academic progress ratings. LeBron also built very nice, new condos for the families on the corner of Maple & Exchange but the families aren't taking care of them, as there are already holes in the walls & often-broken windows as well as homeless sneaking in to sleep (& defecate) in the hallways 🤦♂️. A young lady was just shot & killed in there a week ago 😕

I think I like playing Kent on the penultimate week of the regular season as opposed to the final week/game. Miami's got two potentially tough games this week in Toledo & Ohio, while we have what should be (🤞🤞) two easier matchups cruising into Cleveland. Miami's next two weeks could potentially look like: Toledo, Ohio, UMass, Ohio, Akron (🤞) If they don't lose at least one of those games, then 🫡 to them
