Sounds about right for Bruce Pearl.
-
I haven't followed closely tbh. That could be the case. The MVC is also very deep. Not many games you can feel safe penciling in wins. Key example Belmont during Arch Madness. IMO the MVC is one of the few mid-major conferences that puts on a better conference tournament than the MAC. Mainly because there are usually so many quality teams and fans show up in large numbers.

Miami over UMass Toledo over BGSU Akron over Buffalo Kent over OU Toledo over Miami Akron over Kent Akron over Toledo Toledo is actually peaking in March, which is a first in many decades.
-
Fantastic job of showing even though spring break had just started as well.
-
All 6 Ohio MAC teams made the tournament. Basketball just means more here evidently. Edit: Not only made the field, but also claimed seeds 1-6.
-
Something worth noting they had Kirby in late in OT instead of Skaljac. Not sure if it was injury related, but Skaljac clearly looked off.
-
Akron's 34-2 record in MAC play is the best record in MAC history over a 2 year span.
-
Save some 3s for Cleveland
-
The wheels really fell off Murray State in particular. They lost 8 of their final 12.
-
That assist by Cobb was either one of the best assists I've seen all season or the luckiest, perhaps both
-
Honestly, that makes it more appealing to me. I already have plenty of Zips hoodies, tees, polos. I don't really have wind breakers or anything for spring/early fall.

It should be noted that Belmont was the only MVC team that would in all likelihood be seeded ahead of Akron had they made the tournament. This increases our odds of backdooring from a 12 seed into an 11. -
Something worth noting since Akron/Miami are projected as an 11/12 seed and most are projecting UNC as a 5/6 seed. Caleb Wilson broke his thumb in practice this week and had season ending surgery. He was averaging 19.8 pts and 9.4 rebounds and a projected lottery pick.

Still up in the air someone on here posted yesterday.

Thanks for people like you and @Blue & Gold for spreading the fandom. It's challenging for me to get my friends to go to an Akron game that's not Kent or the MAC Tournament and those friends I try to get to go are Akron grads.
-
I assumed next weekend probably wasn't in play. That's fine, it looks good quality and is at a fair price. Besides the profits are reinvested in the team. I don't mind keeping it in my closet until next fall if need be.

How long did it take for you to receive the vest?
-
Hate to see them go, but I'm sure we'll reload in the offseason. If we keep Young and Eric that should give is two nice pieces to build around.
-
Thanks for sharing, order placed.

That's what happens with today's sports analysis. Just a bunch of over reactions and hot takes to generate views and interactions. He's never even made the tournament, let alone won a tournament game. That's with him coaching 4 years in the Big East. He's a good coach, but not sure how anyone can remotely think he's in the top 10.
-
I think TJ, Suder, and Gillespie are 3 locks for 1st team All-MAC. There is a lot of competition for those last 2 spots. TJ I have to think gets POY. If I had to guess Gillespie gets DPOY. Evan should receive votes. Scott certainly is in the running and perhaps favorite for 6th man. Not 100% certain who all qualifies.
-
Had Akron beat Yale and Miami we would probably be in a similar spot to where Belmont is at currently. Solidly on the bubble line.
-
Honestly, a win might save Boals job. It would be that big of a win for OU.
-
Yes, this is the likely correct answer. Especially once you consider this is football so it automatically attracts 10x the number of eyeballs compared to basketball.
-
For me it's because basketball is clearly the distant 3rd sport behind both football and hockey. WMU I don't see investing in both basketball and hockey given the overlapping seasons. CMU and EMU basketball is still the #2 sport. They just aren't good. CMU might be on the up as their new coach is at least showing progress. I won't dispute banishing all 3.
