  1. Definitely. He can work a room. Very friendly and personable.
  2. I knew they'd be a tough out when I saw what they did to Calumet College of St. Joseph. They are scrappy. They should win a few games. They won't see many bigger teams.
  3. Commentator: "If you take away the transition scores Akron has had Evansville would be ahead." Well, no $h!+.
  4. Finish the half strong. Don't let them back in.
  5. You can see that teams are watching Evan's tape. They're starting to back off of him on the perimeter.
  6. The gerbil that powers their transmitter died.
  7. Zips can send help from whoever is guarding Moeller. He has no interest in shooting the ball.
  8. They seem to struggle initially against a zone then settle in. Evansville is doing a nice job of guarding the guy at the foul line. Zips need to swing the ball better.
  9. "Happy to report we just received a $100k gift from an incredible @uakronalumni donor to support football recruiting operations and the ACE Fund!!"
  10. Which one? The letter about looking to next season or the communication about the $100K NIL contribution? As for the first, I didn't read anything into it as it was exactly what I would expect him to say. It didn't clarify anything for me. As for the second, it's a good start.
  11. Evansville comes into tonight's game at 4-3 with wins against Oregon State, Henderson State, Calumet College of St. Joseph and Oakland City. They've lost to Purdue, Middle Tennessee and UT-Arlington. Evansville appears to have some talented bigs. 6'10" Australian junior forward Joshua Hughes leads the team in scoring and rebounding averaging 13.2 ppg and 7 rpg. 6'10" Butler transfer senior forward Connor Turnbull contributes 12.8 ppg and 4 rpg. 6'9" senior forward Miami and St. Louis transfer AJ Casey adds 8 ppg and 5.3 rpg.
  12. Has he lost to Nowhere You yet this season?
  13. Tyrrell is now available. 😁
  14. Too much divided attention with this and the Hoban/Walsh game!
  15. It is 9. I misread the bracket.
  16. Eric doing some growing up tonight.
  17. Well, the announcers are there.
  18. Nice start. Let's keep the pedal down. These announcers clearly are not at the venue and have limited knowledge of the teams.
  19. One small thing that jumped out at me recently occurred at the Tip-off reception. Each year, the men's and women's team each have a player take the stage with their coaches for a Q and A. The men's players have been veteran team leader guys like Nate, Enrique and Tavari. Regan Bass was Enrique's counterpart. I don't remember last year's women's participant. This year it was an exceptional engineering student but she was new to the team. It made me wonder about the continuity and stability of the roster.
  20. The only proven formula to make the tournament - WIN THE MAC.
