Did Poke have 12 dunks to get 24 points?

Woodson is horrible. I don’t like playing him over Nelson at this point.

Detroit

Run.......the......ball.....

Yes, Parrish should be one of the first subs. I shouldn’t post after drinking

Ivey was off but I am not worried about him. best five: Duvivier ivey utomi ololjapoke sayles Bench cotton Patton kostelac Solid showing for first game

WMU subbed in field goal team so time would have to be given to the defense to sub.

Huge win

First place Akron Zips!

Loyer and Stewart appear on paper to be good candidates. Both with Akron ties. Jim Christian would be the worst choice ever.

Dru Joyce, head coach, SVSM

Let's play game #4 first. App State is good.

Does anyone know the status of Brown? He took a vicious hit on his leg.

54 for Marshall should be ejected. That's a horribly late hit. Dirtiest hit I've seen this year.

I don't post here often but I do read frequently. I am a Zip grad in the class of 1993. I have watched a lot of Zip football since 1989. I understand everyone was frustrated by the penalties and defensive problems. I know that Amato and Bowden will fix the penalties and field discipline problems. The defense has talent and Gilbert was everywhere. Amato will have a better scheme for future games. He kept it simple for this one. As for the offense, all I can say is Wow. There is so much talent on this side of the ball. This is the most talent I have ever seen for the Zips. Ball is a beast and should have received more carries IMO. Woodson was awesome and the receivers are incredibly fast, big, and athletic. This will be a fun team to watch this year. Wisconsin is probably too good to beat but we surely have the ability to challenge them.

Run the ball, don't turn it over, crush the passer. Zips Win!

I don't care that Shaka Smart did not call off the dogs in the game. This isn't high school basketball. Step up and stop them. He is trying to make sure his team is sharp and focused for the whole tournament. We need to look in the mirror and recognize, short handed or not, that VCU played on a much higher level than us. They were incredible. I wish them luck the rest of the tournament. I do, however, think that In a few years when Shaka reflects on this he will wish he took a different approach once the game was way out of hand. I think he lost perspective in the heat of the moment. He will learn with maturity as a coach. Just my 2 cents.

The refs let them play all game long. I did not see any favoritism. I think there were a lot of fouls left uncalled in both directions. Bassett and Cooper got away with several pushoffs but Conyers also got away with a couple pushes. It all evened out in the end. Ohio had the dominant guards and that is what won the game for them. Congrats to Ohio on a well played tournament.Congrats to the Zips on another fine season.

Young men and women make bad decisions. I made quite a few decisions in college which, looking back 20 years ago, probably weren't the best things to do. I am sure that if I were on a college athletics team and the coach found out about some of the things I did that I might suffer some sort of punishment, and deserved it. I was not a bad person, just young, a little adventurous, and wanting to experience life as a young man. Let's not waste our time slamming the coach or the player. Let's praise the TEAM for winning without a key member of the team in a tough place on the road. B McKnight will be back. Hopefully he learned his lesson.

The Zips need to make a commitment here to excellence. Caleb Porter deserves to be the highest paid coach in NCAA soccer. PERIOD!

Lock up Caleb Porter for ever. Give him the biggest contract in college soccer.

ZIPS win on penalty kicks. Time for Virginia for the Championship!
