I got a late call into the Dan Patrick show today during the best and worst of the week(end). I mentioned Jackson having back to back 35 pt games being the best. The worst was the loss to BG. Dan Patrick followed it up with the appreciation of the update on MAC basketball!!
Hoping the games this week have a "good ol' days" feel at the JAR with high energy, butts in seats, and quality basketball. It's long overdue, but I think the hype may finally be escalating. GO ZIPS!!!
Akron plays a difficult system, and it takes the right mix of personnel to make it work. It took Embick a couple years to get the right mixture after Caleb's departure, then we went to 3 out of the next 4 College Cups (including a National Title Game loss). We're gonna have some down years - every program in every sport does - but I fully expect Embick to have things turned around this year.
Don't jump ship!
Huh? Come on, GT. Just once write like you actually care.
"Unfortunately, it’s not that easy because of how well the Bobcats have played in recent weeks. Saturday, they gutted out a close one to beat KSU. Prior to that, they blew out Bowling Green."
(Kittens were blowing out BG at halftime. Then lost)
