  1. There was nothing of substance from Arth. He stood up there, looked like a Sears catalog model, and gave the usual drivel about this and that. No hard-hitting questions. I also expect GT wanted something more scandalous than what John Green gave him regarding finances. OT...future NE game is worth 1.45mill
  2. Basic question about the buyouts. John Green explained that the Nebraska payout took care of Bowden and there is still negotiations with UTC including bringing them here for a game. Something about $8mill being reallocate from athletics. Basically, Arth I'd one of the lowest paid coaches in D1 and he needs to produce.
  3. A lot of pressure on this young man
  4. John Green is funny.
  5. I hope there are some tough questions
  6. Sound isn't matching but I can hear it fine.
  7. I'm so happy John Green is doing this press conference instead of say...Scott Scarborough.
  8. I appreciate the sentiment but seriously? Dinner with parents after the game? Kent plays all of their home games at 7pm. I think this has more to do with ESPN. That being said, I remember back in the day that afternoon games were fairly normal.
  9. He coached in the MAC. He was asst coach at Akron w/ Shaka Smart. But for a few unwise words he wouldn't have been at St. Vs. Basta.
  10. Those were the ugliest T shirts. I think these 2pm games are a drag for the fans. And all the Saturday games this year are at 2pm.
  11. He's not a homer he's a full time ride-share driver AND a free-lance writer.
  12. It was time to change. I think they should have fired Bowden last year after the Cherry Bowl. Loyalty...hmm...my loyalty is to the University and not to some average football coach with zero connection to this community.
  13. I hear the coach at Norwayne is pretty good. Creston...right in our backyard.
  14. Ugh. My math skills. Thanks Kreed.
  15. So between SC, NW, and NE, U of A athletics made about $2.1mill this year. I'm sure that made the buy out an easier pill to swallow for the University (whether you agree with Arth hire or dont) (see correct math below)
  16. Yes. Seriously, he is.
  17. Well Steve French did say during post game that he is "really good looking,"
  18. Roscoe made a huge defensive mistake I think when we had just tied them. Groce lost it...yelled to Dustin, "get him out!" Sayles rebounded well when the ball fell directly into his hands. There's plenty of blame to go around and I shouldn't focus so much on the last play considering the Zips were behind the entire game. With Buffalo ready to sweep the MAC and the entire season, the goal should be to get on the other side of the bracket. They need some confidence and urgency that's for sure
  19. We always have had 1/2 empty arenas this time of year and crowd today was pretty good. But this was handed to us. Last year's team could close out a game better. That being said, this game was lost thru turnovers and crappy rebounding. They need a crunch time player who can make the big play
  20. Groces honeymoon is quickly fading away. That was an awful ending. No confidence this team can deliver when it counts.
  21. Had chances. One thing we can always count on this team won't close out a half with a basket. Getting old
  22. These offensive rebounds. So incredibly frustrating. Total difference in the game.
  23. Jeremy Roscoe just got yanked and chewed out...wow. Cheese just shot an ill-advised 3. Offensive rebounds they lead 11-3.
  24. Stating the obvious: need more Jimond. He's only one getting rebounds.
