I'm good for stuff like this, but for in-game analysis...not so much.

yikes. I will make a mental note to follow up on how his pro-career turns out

yeah, definitely a foul or an amazing flop.

https://pac-12.com/article/2021/01/11/pac-12-extends-prohibition-fan-attendance-sports-competitions His team isn't doing well, and he doesn't have an audience to play to.

If you look at the roster, they put up the only 3 juniors. There are no seniors. With the COVID exemption, they all seem like Seniors. Gregg Tribble is considered a sophomore.

My thought on this stretch of games (Kent to CMU) was that the Zips needed to go 4-1 heading into Toledo on Friday.

These guys found a way to win in front of a really nice crowd. They were clearly worn out. Trimble: there's that "rule" in golf that it's difficult to follow a round of 61 with another really low round. Good mental conditioning for March. They certainly won't EVER be looking past the next game.

Spottsville, once again, blows his crucial FTs @ the JAR. How many of these games have we sat through at the JAR? Plenty. To me, no big deal.

Win and move on

Trap game. Let down. Fatigue. With some EMU players out..maybe they will tire as well

This has been an ugly few minutes. Behind again at half. This team is beyond comprehension

That was a messed up series

EMU pushing Zips around

EMU playing with intensity. They are controlling paint at both ends.

Nice crowd getting to see a tired Zips team

Here we go again. 13% from the field.

Another slow start.

Decent crowd tonight. They are playing "Who Are You?" When introduced Eagles. Clever.

Miami just made an Akron style comeback against NIU to send it to OT. Think they were down 15 with 3 mins left

Western tied with BG in 2nd half. Western then chokes again

Remember Akrons triple or quadruple OT game against Miami in the QFs in Cleveland? Everyone fouled out and only guy left on bench was Josh Egner, who KD wouldn't put in. Never know when we will need him. (Kalle not Egner)

Toledo got their revenge on OU tonight. And with a comfortable lead and a minute left Toledo's Milner slammed one home. Humiliating loss for OU at home.

not to digress the thread, but I hope he is sending his $$$ home to an American bank because it could get really ugly really fast over there.

Anyone remember our favorite Huron, James Thompson IV? He plays for a Russian team in Siberia. Siberia can't be much different than Ypsilanti. The Russian league is one of the highest paying: "Although the max salaries for Russian VTB United League teams are enticing the average salaries are very interesting as well with players making $200k-450k USD for the season. Now there’s motivation to deal with a Siberian winter."

In the final minute of the WMU game they had 2 or 3 offensive rebounds that could have spelled disaster. OTOH, their extending the possession allowed Akron to almost run out the clock for the last shot. BTW...great poise by Ali, keeping his cool as he dribbled out the clock.
