  1. Who are some coaches who successfully transitioned from DIII to DI? My gut is that isn't the route UA will take with this (and I have no evidence to back that up).
  2. Until some contenders names start dropping, I think this thread will be full of all sorts of handwringing debates.
  3. Yes. That tweet went world wide. Lots of good comments as well from all over the world.
  4. They offer a service that probably involves extreme vetting that his staff doesn't have time or resources to do.
  5. The OK State guy once lived in Euclid. I guess that's enough of a connection.
  6. By accident, I just read the last post on page 1 of this thread. I thought it was a post from today an not 4 years ago apart from the mention of Kyle Pohl. And again someone was taking Zipsoutsider to task.
  7. He's moved around quite a bit and hasn't been a head coach even at a small college. Can someone enlighten me on whether this is a normal track?
  8. I watched the replay as well, and I may have been a bit generous towards the Zips.
  9. This is such a huge hire. Do or die moment for the program. Williams will do it right like he did with men's basketball. Also, Melissa Jackson for WBB appears to be a good choice as well.
  10. As long as he is South of the Mason Dixon Line. I'm sure he will be fine, and this will be a rough holiday for his staff and their families.
  11. I guess that's that. I wonder if Williams had the new guy in place before he did the deed.
  12. Definitely need Riak. Shoulder injury.
  13. That is such lazy ass writing. "deserve credit" "self inflicted wounds" "inability to make shots" "progress is stalled" He writes like those guys who blog for MAC Hustlebelt. How about: " Senior Jimond Ivey lights up the arena with 25 points and 12 rebounds and the Zips defense stymies Detroit Mercy"
  14. don't think he should be giving any one tips on "style." how many assists did Akron have compared to Detroit? 18 to 4 or something like that. I consider that plenty of selfless style.
  15. Uhh...not encouraging to GT. First line from his lame article: "It’s fortunate style points have little to do with actual basketball games because, based on the performance of the University of Akron men’s team Saturday, the Zips would get few."
  16. i get it. they are intense players going at a high level. and i like that they have that attitude and killer instinct. but it was really clear from where I was that it wasn't necessary. refs were good tonight about letting things play out. good point on Detroit being like a lower tier MAC team. Reminded me of the last Miami team under John Cooper.
  17. LCJ has a certain attitude. Someone is going to deck him one of these games. His team won, and he was jawing with the other team.
  18. Ugh. Mercy hitting desperate 3s late.
  19. Mercy is going to make these last 4 minutes a long slog
  20. That guy sucks the life out of the crowd with some stupid "challenge."
  21. Crowd finally gets into it. Timeout Detroit. And guess what?
  22. They hit DJ Cooper 3s. Ivey coming alive
  23. Tie score and exactly even stats. Two former Big Ten coaches.
  24. Sort of miss Riak tonight. Chucking 3s over the Zone.
  25. All points for DM from Davis. Zips didn't take advantage while he was on bench
