  1. Do I think Akron has any chance of making a Final 4? No, but what's so far fetched about making the round of 32 or Sweet 16? It's a single game elimination tournament, not a best of 7 series. You don't have to be the better team to win. You just have to put yourself in a position that a few lucky bounces swinging your way puts you in a position to win.
  2. I can't copy and paste on my phone but it mentions in the article that the donation piece towards priority seating will be eliminated as well. Figure I'd mention it as it will impact some of you.
  3. Campbells Arena Starkist Court?
  4. What we're seeing now is the team I expected out of Akron this season. I said when Groce was hired however many months ago that I was going to give him a free pass for this season as I don't think any coach in the country could have assembled a MAC contender given everything we lost and how short of a time frame we had to assemble a roster.
  5. Keener wasn't part of the bet.
  6. For any coaching vacancy for any of the sports I follow, I'd want the coach that has the best chance to succeed. It doesn't really matter to me if they have ties to Akron or not.
  7. I found your comment to be funny @Bruce Willis Drummond. Some people are just overly defensive for whatever reason. Being a Cleveland sports if I couldn't laugh about my fandom misfortunes, I'd probably cry.
  8. Not much thought process went into my pick.
  9. Nom nom nom https://www.google.com/search?q=cupcake&prmd=ivmn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjirNP0-6fYAhXTySYKHTL_Am0Q_AUIESgB&biw=768&bih=927#imgrc=UPhYSF8SdUYj5M:
  10. 6-6 or 7-5 win seasons 7-8 years into the Bowden tenure just won't cut it for me. I'd like to see us push for a 9-10 win season one of the years. He needs to show he is capable of winning big at Akron.
  11. At the end of the day you're making an assumption and assuming it to be fact. No ifs, ands, or buts. Anyways this has gone completely off topic. I won't be making any further replies. Enjoy your holidays.
  12. Pretty much all my posts you've seen are sports related (which I admit I'm opinionated about as I'm more passionate about it) because A) this is a sports forum and B ) I try to avoid internet political debates. But thanks for jumping to assumptions when you have little to no knowledge of where I stand politically.
  13. Sorry guys, I'm just not feeling good about this one. I hope I'm wrong.
  14. Not disputing this. I'm fairly opened minded when it comes to politics, but thanks for insinuating otherwise.
  15. Fortunately for me then that I don't self identify myself with either political party.
  16. I'm in total agreement. So many individuals base their political views solely off of the political party they affiliate themselves with instead of looking at both sides of an issue and forming their own opinion.
  17. I don't want to say the MAC will never get an at-large bid, but if that's what you're banking on, odds are you'll be SOL.
  18. I don't care about last years records for measuring if a team is a cream puff this year. What matters is how good that team is the year you play them. At 3-7 with losses to Southern, Louisiana State, Missouri-Kansas City, UT-Martin is most definitely a cream puff. They jury is still out on several of the other candidates you mentioned.
  19. I see nothing wrong with friendly banter from an opposing fan base.
  20. I would have never of guessed him to win this award before this week. He played 42 minutes of fantastic basketball. That being said, the Zips will need for him to play smarter and avoid constantly being in foul trouble if we are to succeed this year. We are thin all over the place and as the saying goes, your best ability is your availability.
  21. This team has already played better already than I expected. I have them getting 18-20 wins.
  22. You buying?
  23. A lot of games where Utomi has an off shooting night will probably end up like this. We just don't have a lot of offensive fire power.
  24. 10-3 is definitely a good season, but what did their fans expect? Fair or unfair, you need to do more as a G5 to find yourself in a more high profile bowl game.
  25. Well, this is embarassing...
