Sharron with the block 🤯

Thank goodness Tavari, Shammah and Amani packed their 3 point shots. It’s been the difference maker in my opinion.

Tulane does have a cool old gym.

What a heartbreaking loss that was! It was all right there for the Zips to take. Much appreciation for the really good senior class! Thanks for the memories, boys! The very harsh, straight red card on Matt Dreas killed the match.

I don’t have a problem with them celebrating, we would probably do the same thing. If they didn’t score that third goal what would we have done in OT? I understand parking the bus after the red card even though I hate it, but I can’t imagine what attack we would even try to drum up to get a golden goal

St Louis avenged their only two losses of the year by beating Indiana and Akron in the NCAA tournament.

42-34, Akron at the break.

Tevari currently playing as well as any Akron guard that I have seen in the past.

Flushes are playing Roberts Wesleyan today. New one on me.

Why get in Morck face here?

Love the effort on the boards by the Zips. It seems that with the zone it gives us numerous opportunities to hit the boards. We seem to be the more physical team which I am sure pleases Groce. Tevari just continues to play well making the open shot and finding the open man. Marvin needs to make them bunnies!!

Nothing is coming easy for the Zips today, but they keep swinging.

I don't even care about celebrations, but celebrate with your fans and teammates. Just classless.

They just mentioned that Tulane and Akron have only met once in their history and it was in 2019 at the DC holiday hoops that Akron won 62-61. I was at that game and the following game when they lost to Liberty. Six years goes by fast. 😊

Tulane is getting a lot of open looks from 3. Fortunately for us they haven't been able to knock them down.

Barre doing some good things out there.

Nothing more classy and humble than Barry Sanders just handing the ball to the referee. Even if it was the first time, It showed that he belonged there, not necessarily that he had been there before. I hope Georgetown has the opportunity to pound St. Louis.

We can’t seem to figure out this zone and Tulane is getting long rebounds on their offensive end. Add to the fact it’s a road game and we are in a real battle.

Not a barn burner of a start.

Nah, weak take. Act like you've been there before.

I haven't chimed in but wanted to share the following post from the boogeyman himself Connor Stalions when talking about the MSU hire - It's insightful. "People need to understand coaching is just one piece of the pie. More times than not, it’s a huge factor because talent & resources are usually close. But at Northwestern, it’s not even in the same ballpark as the rest of the conference. The academic standards make recruiting damn near impossible. The administration doesn’t care about winning. It’s basically an Ivy League school in the Big Ten. Pointing to a couple bad seasons (from a record standpoint) is lazy. Speaking from personal experience (yes, at a much different scale): I coached at Mumford HS in Detroit as the DC for a few months. We had 3 coaches & 18 total players in the program with a team-wide average GPA of a 0.9 when we arrived in the summer, and had to play JV & Varsity games with those 18 players (do the math on that). We somehow won a game. But of course we lost to Cass Tech 70-0. Went to Belleville right after the regular season as the OC and won 70-0 first game in the playoffs. Do you think I didn’t know how to coach then all the sudden learned in one week for a 140-point turnaround? No… We won at Belleville because we had Bryce Underwood, Elijah Dotson, etc. We lost at Mumford because we didn’t (and played against CJ Sadler, Don Tabron, etc.). While talent gaps are much greater in high school, I’m explaining the point that coaching only matters when the talent gap is manageable." Akron like Northwestern's issues are largely structural (and financial here), and Moorhead is not to blame there. Without addressing those underlying issues, a coaching change seems cosmetic. Unless they could line up someone like Jason Taylor. They are working to address the underlying issues though.

Just went from my app to the TV and the movie just starting: Titanic,

That's because you're hearing what you want to hear. You keep just saying move on from JoeMo and it will make us magically better. Others are saying we need additional resources regardless of coach. Just because someone points out that the program is underfunded doesn't mean they're saying the program can never succeed in the MAC. They're saying that if we want to have success in the future we need to find ways of increasing resources. Whether that falls on getting more donations, playing more buy games, or whatever else. Replacing a coach is just a bandaid. I'm not even opposed moving on from JoeMo. I just want there to be a plan in place for how we're going to be financially competitive with the other MAC schools. Without it you will be here in 2-3 years demanding we fire another coach.

I hope the official gets depor.ted for a handball call that wasn't near his hand! The most retarded rules in sports....

This one is going to sting for quite a while. Can't even imagine how the players feel.
