Groce continues to live rent free in this guy’s head. While I think some of the media questions were ridiculous, Tod just can’t contain how much he loathes Groce/Akron. But you can see that he’s learning. Groce is making him a better coach, but he’ll never admit it. Get old and stay old, seniors play harder because the end of their career is on the line. And experienced players don’t typically make the mistake Kent State made 2 years ago. Indiana won a championship in football with an extremely old roster. Yes Tod, culture matters. Play retention matters. Todelo is a very good team and they might be the pre-season favorite next year and if he does finally win a MAC Tournament Tod will have Groce to thank. But he’s clueless if he thinks Scott’s shot and the final shot were equal in difficulty. Scott has proven himself in that exact situation all season long. Toledo’s final heave miraculously hit iron. Scary close to be honest.

agree. give Tod some grace.Toledo played very well. they didnt fold like so many others have with the Zips. zips made their own luck by winning 3 close title games in final 10 seconds and the quarterfinal Buffalo game in 2022.

For a guy whose team just lost on a last second shot I thought he did not act like a jerk. He brought out the fact that we had 5 seniors. I thought Toledo played really well. I thought his players also brought out the fact how the Zips wanted this game. As a Zips fan who has seen Scott make that shot numerous times, I know it was not luck but I can certainly understand his feelings and disappointment.

Screw you tod. Man senderoff’s presser from yesterday was actually nice. This dude basically said we should’ve lost each of the last 3 championship games. Including a “bad play by Miami” not sure what he even is talking about for 25

This was arguably the second biggest shot in the game. Bowen finally got a shot that didn't have him off-balance and he didn't miss.

He can eat a flaming bag of dog turds. What a poor loser.

What fun night. Zips Nation showed out, at least 80% Akron fans there and probably the biggest crowd that I can remember there since maybe 2010 ish vs OU. Good times. Easy to root for this group

toddy in rare form after the game. Game winner was “lucky.” This board rags on senderoff but man, this guy is Clint Eastwood from Gran Torino. Pure jerk.

Got mine today, too. It is VERY nice.

You can see it better in this video. Look how many Akron fans there are. Unbelievably good showing from the Zips faithful. Toledo is 1.5 hours from Cleveland and that crowd was probably 80/20 Akron.

Yes, you remember. Ha!!

Stay thirsty, my friend.

I intentionally misspell Toledo…”Todelo” because I can’t stand Tod’s personality.

I already gave kudos to Evan, but watch…with 6 seconds left here again his defense slows the ball down. And then he pokes the ball away. Toledo does get a shot off, but it was a frantic heave because of Evan’s disruption.

I just got home and my package is sitting in front of my door! Can’t wait to wear it tomorrow

I don't think about Toledo at all. I'm so indifferent towards them. All my hate goes to Kent, OU, and Miami.

Bump

Tod with the "get out of my face" LOL

Amani I don't think had a great first half. Not sure how many of those rebounds were 1st vs 2nd half, but I'm willing to guess ~10 of his 15 points came in the 2nd half. He really stepped it up and was a big reason we got back into it.

I hate Todelo so much. But they did play a hell of a game too. The difference was the character of our guys. Their belief in themselves and a never die attitude. Which is infused into them on a daily basis by our whole coaching staff. That’s part of the culture element. But Groce did also make in game adjustments. One already discussed was to switch back and forth from man to zone defense to slow them down. And finally Tod, to be the best you need to beat the best. There is nothing fluky or charmed about the Akron Zips!!
