All Activity

Outback is split in half tonight. Looks like some event is happening on the other side. (Or they’re trying to hide the small student section)

The rowdies have a booth at the basketball game trying to promote the soccer game Saturday. Should be doing this all year!

The zips have a special guest tonight. Santa is in the house! Lol

I just wish something would happen one way or the other. Wish he’d take a job or announce he’s here for another year.

both guys from Monarch in ft. lauderdale. maybe that's why rigging signed here. 6'4 325 is a big lineman !

I agree, however we will do most of our building through the portal, so it's fine.

While I do like the guys we signed. 7 HS recruits is awfully underwhelming.

AD Goodrich is another variable we have going in our favor rn - he's smart, savy and hungry.

If Akron would've won 6+ games, they easily would've won a lawsuit vs. the NCAA due to the NIL environment (preventing earnings/future earnings for players). They punished Akron thinking Akron wouldn't win 6+ games.

IDK about that. IIRC, The last team that was put into that position was LSU, and if that was the case. The MAC does not have the Juice that the SEC has. The NCAA would have made Akron an example, unless there was no other options left.....

Bring on Hiram!

Yay, we beat someone!

Good luck to 290 lb Rob hauling his butt up and down the court chasing the Zips gazelles.

Amani needs to lock in cause the bigs in the conference are game changers rn

Forever a Zip

Or maybe the Billikens' luck has run out, and they don't have their mojo against the Zips (again)?!

Apparently not 100000000000% committed after all

Smith-Ray decommited.

Zips beat Heidelberg 117-34.

OC is open at Tosu. Easy access to Pittsburgh via I-70..

Reminds me a lot of Kent’s SOS a few years back when they won the conference. Just can’t drop the same duds they did and I agree

I’d love to see him back, but I doubt it happens. Another JUCO stop probably means grades are still an issue.

According to one of the big posters on Bobcat Attack, they're working on a negotiated settlement. If that's between the University and Brian Smith, it sounds like Brian Smith will no longer be the coach going forward.

There are currently 11 teams on the schedule vs. top 200 NET. A couple of those teams we play twice. I believe that's the exact same number of top 200 NET teams that we had on the schedule last year (again, a couple of those teams we played twice). It's not the schedule that would hurt us, it's the results. Last year, we lost to Arkansas State, Saint Mary's, Milwaukee, Yale, Princeton, and Ohio. We weren't competitive in any of the games except Arkansas State and Princeton. Akron still ended the season 94th in NET with a 130 SOS (I believe this includes the Arizona game). Akron this year has played much better in their 2 losses (Purdue and Yale) and still has OOC games vs. Bucknell, Tulane, and Murray State (this is the big one). Demolishing the bad teams and either winning or being very competitive vs. the good teams matters, which we've had solid results with thus far. According to Warren Nolan, our current SOS is 74th. If we can win out in the OOC, Akron will be in the discussion for the top 25 come January.

Basically the same waiver that Akron would likely have gotten if they won any of the winnable games they didn't.
