Flop?

Was it a q-final in the afternoon? I seem to remember coming home from work early and turning it on right when all of of this went down.

I like Arth. I think he is doing this the right way and am happy and relieved that he is staying with the Zips.

There were a # of close games and Zips always seemed to meet them in Cleveland or maybe its just taken on a life of its own. Too much of this stuff.

Who flipped what score?

That was the craziest game the Zips won that I ever attended. People in front of me walked out before it was over. Down by 5 with a minute left. I think they had to foul and keep extending the game. And as we know, missing FTs can be contagious on a team. Groce needed some luck and he got it. EMU's Spottsville missed both FTs right before X made the winning shot and then Channel took the charge that had him down on the floor while Rob Murphy stormed around screaming at the refs. That was an important game. Akron had just loss two in a row (Buffalo at home and Kent on the road) and 2 in a row at home (Toledo and Buffalo). Zips losing 3 MAC games in a row at home wasn't an option.

Remember last year's EMU game at the JAR? U G L Y!

good point. one's heart can be fickle.

always the cynic?

sorry, I jumped on your post. you are one of the best on here.

I agree with all of that. my issue was with B&G saying Dailey has a fragile ego. Was weird, Dailey made the big 3 pointer against Toledo much like X made a couple game winners last season.

Yes, Groce isn't playing Maishe in order to keep Maishe's ego happy. These four games were good practice for March in Cleveland. I'm sure the staff is thinking ahead to that and the back up rotations needed to keep the legs fresh.

Everyone rips on Maishe. How do you know he has a fragile psyche? He's a solid guy. Groce doesn't recruit whiners.

As I was saying...

What are you trying to say?

I don't normally rationalize, but they played Sat, Tues, Thurs and a bus ride to Kalamazoo. and WMU has fresh legs. Zips can beat any team in the MAC. Stay in the top 8 and get to Cleveland. Just don't want to be stuck in a tiebreaker with any of these teams

why we can't have nice things. I guess Zips will be in the first 8 out.

Here we go again. Keep letting these garbage teams believe they are special.

Down by 30 to CMU.

PCCC? you mean Garrettsville State? That was a close one.

I like everyone getting a chance.

Remember Groces first year! Lucas Smith. Still managed to get to Cleveland

ha. I was just thinking that.
