I get that but it was a special exception. I don't see it happening tonight.

It’s tradition to start all seniors on senior night. Evan Wilson got a start cause of it lol

Northern Illinois isn't walking through that door tonight.

And imagine if we had Nate Johnson this year..

Yep. Me too. C106. Time to roll!

They changed it on senior night and won by a million points

Yes. They're not changing the formula that's worked since mid-December. He may only play two minutes to start the game, but he starts.

I couldn't handle the peer pressure and ordered 1 today.

I got my tickets maybe like an hour or so ago.

Got mine today!

If Ali hadn’t transferred that 22-23 team would’ve been legendary

Yes, Miami seems to be committing some serious money to athletics now. They might have been bad before, but who knows what they committed to funding and how that compared to Akron.

I've never understood Halligan starting, personally. He should have always had an MMK-type of role, 5-10 minutes, max, and matchup-dependent, not starting and playing 15-20 minutes a night. I'd start Eric, especially tonight against a Toledo team that can struggle rebounding. But I understand not wanting to rock the boat, too.

Interesting to hear. I wonder a bit if part of the reason was the way MJ's departure was handled and his previous association with her as a co-assistant under Kest. The Miami job opened up a month or so after Gensler was hired. That job was a dumpster fire as opposed to ours which was mediocre. Regardless, it shows how quick things can be turned around if you hire the right coach.

I think Zack starts and is replaced by Shammah in less than 2 minutes. In Groce we trust.

I wouldn't mess up with what works. IMO I like the fact Halligan starts. It allows us to better stagger our minutes so that we have a fresh guard coming off the bench at the first media timeout. I agree Halligan shorter play time is probably both a combination of injury and shortening the bench because of elimination games.

For you degens out there watching basketball all day. Cheering for both Charlotte and Ole Miss is the play. Both of those teams would almost certainly be seeded behind Akron if they win their conference auto bid. That might be enough to slide Akron up to an 11 seed from a 12.

Does Groce start Halligan tonight? I do not think he has scored in the last 5 games and last night he passed up an open three and turned the ball over. He only played a total of 4 minutes. Also, Groce seems to shorten the bench in these championship games. Do you start Young instead since he has been playing stellar defense or do you keep what has gotten you here and not mess with a winning rotation. My prediction and open optimism is that Lyles comes out of his shooting slumg and lead the Zips to a double digit victory. Go Zips!!!

They offered him the job. He chose Miami.

Rose Villa posted yesterday about having the game on. Might want to call first.

To my eye, the current team does not stack up to the Castaneda/Freeman squads. I still love the current Zips. Just sayin’.

Miami, under former UA assistant Glenn Box in his third year at the helm, are the 2026 MAC champs. Zips were 7-24 this season. Big whiff so far by the former UA AD. Plus MJ led YSU to Horizon title game this year.

Thought about that too. Mcnees right?

This isn't the time to go soft on us

I watched the first game last night at the new Basement in the Merriman Valley because my power was out. I had to ask them to tune in the game, but they had enough tvs. My power came back on about 7, so I went back home for the Zips game. With so many tvs in these places, it may be hard to get the play by play.
