  1. This is what happens when you live and die by the 3.
  2. If Groce can't run the table with this team, when will he?
  3. Are you saying the MAC blows?
  4. That's some serious Stats Salad.
  5. And wondering what John's next endeavor will be.
  6. Hopefully, while in DeKalb over night, Groce can lay the ground work for a future home and home with NIU.
  7. Sight lines. A decent NIU team (Eugene German) beat #14 Buffalo in 2019. NIU made MAC semis that year and lost to BG by 4. Wow...a lifetime ago...a BG/NIU semi final. An average 2023 team beat Sincere and Kent by 10 in DeKalb.
  8. I hope all this NIU drama isn't a distraction for the men's basketball team tomorrow night. Could throw off the vibe.
  9. Zips leading conference in: 3 point % 3 point FGs made Scoring FG % FG % defense 3 point defense. Assist/turnover ratio FT % Combined rebounds Margin of victory (by a lot) Blocked shots Assists
  10. Excellent round up of this week's action. In the "bread and butter" section are some good stats comparing the Akron Groce Era teams. https://open.substack.com/pub/akronzippedup/p/zips-mens-basketball-weekly-update-96e?r=4gotw8&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
  11. I don't think I can move on with my life until I know what conference is taking on the NIU basketball programs.
  12. John Groce: U of Akron GOAT. Crazy dominant team.
  13. The refs let a lot pass for the entire game. Barlow is one of the better MAC refs. They could have T'd up Steele multiple times and maybe Groce as well. Easy for me to say it was a well-officiated game when Zips win by almost 30.
  14. https://miamihawktalk.fans/t/steele-and-groce-interview/4562 Pre-game interview with Groce and Steele.
  15. Thank you for pointing that out. Football program is actually improving.
  16. I heard this year's team is pretty good. 5-0 or something in the MAC. I guess it would be fun for Groce and Ford and Co to have a big contingent of those St V people, who are apparently awaiting Dru or KDs return, and all their supporters cheering on the Dukes.
  17. Not seeing the ROI for this. Maybe mean something to the folks who remember that team but it's going on 20 years now. Groce and the current staff have minimal connection, if any, with that team.
  18. Excellent recap of the week from Zipped Up https://open.substack.com/pub/akronzippedup/p/zips-mens-basketball-weekly-update-db1?r=4gotw8&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
