  1. Tough day. Great season. Thanks for the memories boys.
  2. All of this penetration by the Zips will eventually result in some successful kickouts for open threes.
  3. But they are getting good shots. The lid will come off of the basket.
  4. I would expect Ivy leaguers to be more original.
  5. Ugly game so far. I anticipate that SMU's rebounding and athleticism will eventually prevail.
  6. My inclination is to root against Miami but at the same time Miami's success would be good for the MAC, and what's good for the MAC would have some benefit to Akron. The MAC teams doing well on the "Big Stage" would help the conference in being taken seriously on a national level.
  7. The Zips need to remember that there's no I in team.
  8. It's going to come down to which team wants it more.
  9. Waiting on my hoodie from the collective, ordered March 8th.
  10. To Travis's credit, I heard him on a show last week crediting the Zips and saying how they got overlooked as a great team with everyone focusing on Miami's undefeated season.
  11. Groce was on 92.3 with Baskin and Phelps today. As always, he said all of the right things. He is such a professional. We are so blessed to have him.
  12. That's the same cheater Bruce that kissed Travis's posterior last week after saying that Miami didn't belong in the tournament. He's a phony and a clown 🤡.
  13. Butts in padded seats are crucial to the success of any program.
  14. I went over to YSU for the preseason scrimmage. It is a very nice cozy facility and the sight lines are good. The bleacher seating on the ends is a little goofy but I'd be happy with a similar reno for the JAR.
  15. I think they play in bandboxes, high school level gyms and barns all season then they hit a big time arena that doesn't give them the opportunity to practice in the facility or have a meaningful shoot around, and it takes time to adjust. I think that's a factor in the MAC tourney shooting.
  16. It won't be MAC refs in Dayton!
  17. I didn't start one thinking the tournament thread covered it as it did not the past, but have at it!
  18. I'll be disappointed of he didn't accept the delivery and put it in the oven.
  19. 12:40 Friday on TruTv is what I'm hearing.
  20. "I don't know that it's lucky when you do it 4 times in 5 years.". Groce's response to Tod's comments at the selection show party.
  21. 5. And his team is burdened by a head coach that gets caught watching the game instead of coaching it when the pressure is on.
  22. Not that there was ever any doubt, but last night was further proof that Groce is without question the best coach in the MAC. The halftime adjustments and productive second half timeouts were outstanding.
  23. Tod fails to realize that teams make their own luck and that composure, which comes in part from team culture, plays a huge role at the end of games.
  24. Beacon/Ohio com article on Young- https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/sports/college/zips/2026/03/15/akron-zips-basketball-mac-tournament-championship-sharron-young/89138726007/
