What are we not doing? (Not sarcasm, don't know the much behind the scenes with FB)

Kent State losing to St. Francis at home.

Look down the road to Canal Park and see what the Rubberducks are doing every summer. It isn't perfect, but there's at least an effort.

Mark your calendars, Enrique will likely be in Cleveland November 9th and 10th. Would love to see a big Zips crowd to support him!

Starting to see some season previews go out.

Here's the football Promotional Schedule: • Sept. 14 vs. Colgate – Home Opener, Band Day, High School Day, Extra Yard for Teachers and Faculty & Staff Appreciation. • Oct. 5 vs. Bowling Green – Homecoming, Family Weekend & Varsity "A" Athletics Hall of Fame. • Oct. 26 vs. Eastern Michigan – Youth Sports Day & Health Care Workers Appreciation • Nov. 2 vs. Buffalo – Senior Day & Salute to Service • Nov. 26 vs. Toledo – Group Bounce Back Day No effort. No creativity. Just mailing it in.

The budget being cut shouldn't have any impact on something privately-funded like this.

Is anyone going to the game? What sections will be Akron fans? Thinking of taking my son but would like to sit around fellow Zips, if possible.

What is a non-roster invitee for summer league?

Freeman will wear #8, per the Pacers.

Has anyone seen what type of contract Indiana is offering Freeman?

I'm not sure what show you're referring to. When I think "Northeast Ohio Media" I think of TV/print/online. ABJ, PD, WKYC, WEWS, and others have all been giving Freeman fantastic exposure throughout his draft process.

Except this is not at all true.

LeBron hating has to be exhausting. Freeman is better than a lot of these players going before him, IMO. Not sure why anyone would focus on any one in particular. All I care about is Enrique getting picked and getting an opportunity.

Why do we care where he goes in relation to Bronny? I just want him to get picked and go to a good situation.

LET'S GO! Happy for Enrique and happy to see Athletics not wasting any time in doing it.

Pat Forsythe didn't? Pretty sure he played 1 year at WVU and 4 at UA.

I think this is one...some random videos from that account! Box Score: https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/matchup?gameId=330332006

2012-13, easily. If Diggs doesn't get himself suspended in the offseason and Abreu doesn't do the same in March, I have no doubt that team wins a tournament game. Despite losing two significant contributors, they still went 26-7 and won the MAC Championship in a blowout despite having a week to prepare to play without Abreu. Then they get the nightmare matchup against VCU and half the team was sick to top it off. To me, they were no-doubt the greatest "what if" Zips team. That group was built to be special.

I haven't seen anyone say they aren't happy. We can appreciate the success we've had while also analyzing good and bad decisions that have been made.

Posting this here as to not hijack the Freeman thread: I think when evaluating Groce, you have to kind of separate coaching vs recruiting. I don't have many complaints on coaching. I do think there there have been some misses in recruiting. These are all certainly debatable.
