1:04 is Akron.
Highly recommend watching VaTech, too.
I really wish this game was on PC.
That's really cool. Only great advancements in technology could fill the seats in Infocision.

Is the Sun Belt a guards league or a shooters conference?
Neither. It is a viable backup big man conference.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what we have in Eric Mahaffey. I'd heard that he was so good in the preseason last year that he was going to see some time and be a contributor as a freshman. Now, it is clear he is doing the off the court work in the off-season. He could develop into a fine Nate replacement.

That kid has transformed himself and in turn become an important piece of the success of the team as opposed to the part-time role player many of us envisioned him to be.

I'm loving some of the Wacky Wednesday photos of the guys playing cornhole, kickball, etc. Some nice team building going on there.

Didn't he have a similar title at Akron? It seems like a lateral move on the surface. I know there were comments about what Akron was achieving with a very small support staff. I wonder if feeling overwhelmed play a part in his departure.
...or feeling rejected in the hiring process of the new AD.

i have a source who has contacts in the ticket office, and he told me that the upcoming schedule features a team playing in every game that won back to back conference tournaments and was undefeated at home last season.
Wow, no more complaining about the OOC schedule! 🤣

I read an article today about a good rant Kirby Smart had at some SEC event yesterday. Apparently, some collectives are paying their high school recruits to remain committed to their school after they initially commit. Some are getting up to $20,000 a month. If they decommit, they have to repay the collective. Just another ugly wrinkle.

Nate's going to have some transfer company at Kansas State as they just "signed" PJ Haggerty, a 6'3" guard from Memphis, the nation's third leading scorer last year. It will be his 4th school in 4 years.

Sounds like she would have been a great high school JV football coach in the 1960s.

Here's the Beacon article on the firing. Unfortunately it is paywalled. Some ugly allegations. I'll try to get a summary up later if I have time.

I'm not sure to be honest. From what I read the 4 hours of reduced practice time is supposed to be replaced with 4 hours of mandatory study tables.
They can use the tables abandoned from the training tables.

It would and could never happen but wouldn't be nice that if the kid didn't hold up his end of the bargain by attending class that he owed the school for a year's tuition?

Certainly one would hope that someone would expend the money and effort to challenge the NCAA and preserve the Zips ability to play in the GameAbove Bowl.

If that's the case Id expect under 1k fans to attend any games.
So, to clarify, we won't notice a difference in the attendance.

We can criticize the NCAA, question the formula that results in the classification, gripe about NIL and question the dedication of the modern athlete to academics, but one inescapable fact remains and that is that the University of Akron football program is the only program in this position. Every other school is operating under the same constraints and standards yet UA is the only program in this position and that's damn embarrassing.

OU in the Sun Belt Conference sounds almost as bad as Cal and Stanford in the Atlantic Coast Conference!
