  1. I don't know about that, Bradley is coming off 2 Ls in a row, and coming to Akron. Sounds pretty similar to our situation last week. I would at least take Zips ML
  2. Every single game notes this year has had this crazy fact “Akron has made at least one 3-pointer in its last 744 games when it was held without a 3-pointer against Purdue in the 2000-01 season.”
  3. The four point line has made an appearance in picture 1
  4. The other 3 still there are almost exclusively used for pickup basketball. The blue courts in my time where used for nearly all intramurals, and had a more diverse court schedule. When covid hit, they spaced out the workout equipment and put a lot of machines in the blue court area. When it was time to take them out, my guess is that not many people had even seen those courts in use which caused them to give away the space
  5. https://www.instagram.com/p/C0bzLt-O9Hi/?igshid=ODhhZWM5NmIwOQ== Basketball practice facility is complete. It is a shame that they took away 2 multipurpose courts away from the student body to make this though.
  6. Ah yes the age old OU and Ball State Rivalry
  7. https://getsomemaction.com/news/2023/11/30/mac-establishes-new-football-schedule-model.aspx Will we ever make a championship appearance again?
  8. Pretty sure that same Gionino's panel is up there today all faded now
  9. That Miami-Hamilton game is the hottest ticket in NE Ohio!
  10. I just watched that last possession, Tribble was set up perfectly for a lob to Enrique but he just couldn't see it. There was just too much standing around on the arc when he picked up his dribble. Perfect spot for a timeout, just unfortunately didn't have any
  11. From a stats POV this game seemed very even. I didn't get to watch the game, only listen, but it seemed like it came down to just the turnover battle and some poor shot selection on a couple possessions. 18 TO is pretty rough, we gotta just take care of the basketball. We were 12-12 on FTs, 8-18 on 3s, and won the total rebounds by 3. If we can replicate these 3 stats, we should win 80-85% of the time. This team has tremendous potential and is still the top of the MAC. Take care of the basketball, make your free throws, and take smart shots, that is how this team is going to win.
  12. Maishe will always have that game winner against Toledo
  13. Just one t-shirt giveaway or just bring back t-shirt toss. All I'm asking for. The Crystal Clinic Ball Toss is also missed lol
  14. Comments on Ali at 4 minutes
  15. Akron football seems to be a lot worse than mediocre
  16. iamali2x
  17. I would have to agree with @zipsrowdy88 I do agree that Charles has been an overall successful hire as AD. He does talk a big talk at times, and that is okay, but it isn't always backed up, which still is a normal thing for anyone to do. With the OSU game situation, I don't think most people would care if we were to be playing on the road against Fill in the Blank P5 school and it got moved to OSU. If we are being realistic, Kentucky probably was never going to come to Akron, the timing of the move seems unfortunate. I haven't lived in Akron long, never seen a game at the Rubber Bowl or the Acme Zip game, but it doesn't take much to see that Akron does not support the Zips. There are many avenues UA can go to get more local support and hopefully they are trying it. And most people do say that winning is the cure all to athletic problems, I wouldn't say that is the only remedy look at soccer attendance and basketball attendance, consistently good programs for years and still it isn't a crowd of 5k people every night. It has to take a lot of change to get to the level a lot of us want to see, but we are still a MAC school in one of the greatest pro sports markets for fans in the country, with one of the top 5 greatest college football programs an hour and a half away. I hope we can improve, and it seems like we have in terms of an athletic department so far. Either way it isn't going to stop me from supporting the Zips
  18. Thank God its basketball season
  19. And one of the tarps is the UA Alumni Association! Wouldn’t the whole point of these to be to get money from sponsors? It looks to me Charles has completely dropped the ball on corporate sponsorship in venue. Crystal Clinic is gone from everything even the JAR scoreboard, the ads on the Infocision scoreboard look like they have been there since 2009, total lack of in game promotions, etc. This is how you make money, especially lower tier athletics.
  20. 28 yards in the second half
  21. #Finish
  22. Underthrown and behind the receiver. That is a brutal INT
  23. Was Gathings signaling First Down after going out of bounds 5 yards behind the marker?
  24. Akron Moneyline is now -175! Who would have thought
  25. Solid 2 drives!
