  1. Even better... go to the MAC Conference web page and look at the conference only stats. There's a stat for margin of victory. Zips are at 19.3. next is Ravenna at 7.0. also Cheese is over 20ppg and is 2nd ranking scorer in MAC. Lots of good stuff
  2. People like to think they "know" stuff. If you look at KDs and President Millers CVs and background, there's no connection or relationship that one can find between them that would make me believe such a stupid rumor.
  3. Zips won first four MAC games by total of 77 points! Did Zips regroup in second half without Reece and Williams on the floor?
  4. Considering what's going in is a surprise to all of us, we all are reasonable in our expectations. So cool to have a coach who doesn't whine about such things as rankings, scheduling, and tourney bids. Enjoy it while we can.
  5. The AK Rowdies need a few obnoxious leaders. There were 3 back in the day who were totally nuts and brutalized the opposing coaches. This year the male cheerleaders are picking up some of the slack. As for marketing, the athletic Dept is short-staffed. There's Williams, VanHorn, and a new guy. Franky, I'm not opposed to letting this team be a "best kept" secret for awhile. And while the Zips had two off seasons, the last few years of KD weren't that hot either.
  6. Watching replay, after NIUs run they scored 9 points in final 13 minutes. Popular coach leaves? That makes my blood boil. Those losers who used to sit near me who were apparently only there for the coach...they can drive to Pittsburgh and play "Where's Duquesne?"
  7. Yeah. The Miami player fumbled the most important inbound pass of their season. Also, Ohio had a chance to win at Canada and threw the ball away
  8. Those KD people all sat in front of me. Don't miss them. And those who only show up now when team is winning...grrr
  9. That JAR better be packed Saturday. Toledo lost tonight
  10. Doing the same.
  11. Thank u Illini Zip. You stepped up when we needed you!!
  12. I knew NIU had a run in them. They almost made MAC finals last year and have played really close games all season.
  13. Holding my breath. NIU will make a quick run I'm sure. Sad night for Kittens and PCCC.
  14. Regarding defense, there was a brief back and forth between Groce and French about BSU making that last 3 and getting to 60. Groce said that shouldn't have happened. Looks better.keeping opponents under 60!
  15. Bored waiting until 7pm CST? On cue, the sad Kittens are missing their old coach: https://www.bobcatattack.com/messageboard/topic.asp?FromPage=1&ForumPID=1&PID=294416
  16. If you look at MAC stats, in offensive and defensive percentages in the 3 MAC games, Akron NIU and PCC are in the top 3 in both.
  17. Tension is building.
  18. Sore lower back from what I can tell.
  19. https://www.beaconjournal.com/sports/20200113/university-of-akron-menrsquos-basketball--zips-look-to-rein-in-niursquos-eugene-german Winning tonight heading into Saturdays game with Toledo will be huge. Expect that big lug McCarty to get chippy...might be good to put Sayles on him for some minutes. Got to be in position to take some charges from German
  20. Misread that. He and the PCCC guy won it twice.
  21. Why isn't A-10 included in college insider poll?
  22. Appears that Nick is looking for a place to land. Unceremoniously fired from shady UT and flopped at Urbana. Internet says he's a recruiting coordinator for NCSA sports whatever that is.
  23. I saw him there as well. PCCC got lucky break with Turner being injured in that first game. I watched that Kitten game and even when they were down BG coach looked quite confident. Kittens living and dying by the 3 and are out of shape. Typical during the rebuild. Zips and PCCC play tomorrow at two points of the MAC Bermuda Triangle. Millet Hall and the Convocation Center. Miami badly needs a win and NIU took out Canada last year when Canada was #15.
  24. DeKalb. Ugh...I've been following this so long I remember Frenchy and Dunn reporting that Matt Futch saw a ghost. This may have been after the last time the Zips won out there.
