  1. You know the offense has stalled when Ali has reverted back to the slow back it in…back it in …back it in turn around jump shot
  2. Who knew it was so hard to follow a ball with a camera! It’s like they aren’t even trying.
  3. At what point should there be concern that the open slots aren’t being filled from the portal?
  4. Tribble is our second highest scorer for what it’s worth
  5. ESPN 3. Why I don't know. But you have to have a TV package with ESPN to stream. Apparently your ESPN + money isn't good enough.
  6. I'm not an expert by any means, but I'm guessing without the pay games each year the football program has to be a serious financial burden with scholarships and infrastructure cost. Maybe stick to the things you do well and things that bring some level of prestige to the U. Soccer, basketball, Track, etc. It doesn't appear Akron does football well. 0
  7. I was thinking the same thing. It would seem to me that dismantling the football program would help the Title IX issue. There seems to be a lot of cognitive dissonance with the football discussions. I would love to hear the good, bad, and the ugly of dismantling the program and it's affect on the University and its other sports programs. Let's face it, there probably aren't a few hundred people outside the athletic department that even care about Akron football. Most are on this forum.
  8. https://www.bloggingthebracket.com/2021/2/17/22287581/2021-22-mens-college-basketball-exempt-multi-team-events-mte-thanksgiving-early-season-tournaments According to this site the Zips are playing in the Gulf Coast Showcase this Thanksgiving. Can anybody confirm or is this leftover from last year? The dates are 2021?
  9. Unfortunately if I was just a casual basketball fan watching that game last night I’d conclude that the MAC wasn’t a good league also. Even when we were way up in the first half were still missing easy shots at the rim...it’s just Kent looked awful. And the last 10 minutes were like a comedy...definitely not D1 basketball play. Overall it’s like we have 3 players and 2 bodies on the court at anytime. I hope 4&5 materialize before the tourney but at this point maybe we have seen what we have.
  10. Any BOGO ticket offers being advertised for the tourney?
  11. There are worse things than a .500 women’s BB team....Watch a Zips FB game lately! Just sayin
  12. LCJ and Sayles got it going on. Why isn’t he in the game
  13. At the game...looks like Banks is fighting some painful back issues.
  14. Got my tix a couple days ago...$45 for 4 games not bad. Looking forward to seeing this team for the 1st time in person. Go Zips!
  15. Did anyone NOT expect that last corner for Butler to go in? Love the build up possession game but no one seems to be a finisher. The kid from Iceland had a great chance at the end but it was a halfhearted attempt and then he didn’t follow up the rebound back his way. Hate to be negative but spent 2 1/2 hrs in Mc D using WiFi to watch another loss.
  16. The Zips have never been “too far”, so you’re correct. I think the point was this team suffers from 3 point shooting. Those two were fairly solid. Let’s hope our current roster shoots lights out today!
  17. Been thinking all year how much better this team would be with a Reggie or Jake on the wing!
  18. Can you honestly say the results would have been any different tonight with KD coaching?
  19. What happens when or if he gets injured? There clearly is no back up. If I were Groce that would keep me up at night more so than the lack of production from the ‘bigs’.
  20. I’m assuming the penalty was inside the box and from what I understand any penalty in that area warrants a shot from the penalty spot. I’m sure someone can correct me though.
  21. What a “unsatisfying loss”. You can take it when you get clearly beaten but to lose just because a player lifts his foot too high trying to clear a ball. It’s almost like they should have just flipped a coin and not played the match. Oh well! I did really enjoy watching every second of their run. I have no doubt they will be back next year.
