I know a long shot but do you think we could ever get a 10k arena downtown Akron. Next to the rubber ducks a lock 3. LeBron could pay and the city could help. Then move the Cleveland charge into that arena and have the zips play there. it would be a UA, charge and concert venue. Creating a stadium district downtown.

MMK is a great free throw shooter he has a good shot. and he had a nice Drive vs NUI. I am on board. He has a chance to be Evan replacement! That is a good call. Anyone with his drive and work ethic can do anything if he puts his mind to it!

As for the bigs we need a starting center. I would love an Amani Clone. Our current bigs don’t have it. But I think they are all viable back up big! Marvin: has heart, rebounding and is improving every game. But is 6’6 and can’t be a starter. Great back up for next season. Barre: has size and athleticism, but is a terrible rebounder and poor hands. He does have decent rim protection. He could improve but that is a risky gamble. Briscoe: has the size and weight. But strength and confidence needs to improve. He can either stay in the program and keep working or transfer if he is tired of waiting.

Game day! This game is always a dog fight. Because Pccc mucks it up. I imagine both teams shoot better. Last game Gillespie and Lyles were no factors due to constant foul trouble. I think that goes in our favor as if the refs swallow the whistle that hurts us. With Whaley back we have to push the ball and create turnovers. Between Scott, young, Hardman and Johnson we need someone to go 4-5 from three.

I think this has loss written all over it. But we live in their heads rent free. We will break their hearts again.

Anyone hear anything or get selected to the Akron fan council thing they posted a couple months ago?

Does anyone know if Freitag is coming back this season. Maybe for a 1-8 match up with Miami?

Thank god for Tavari and Amani. They have 37 of our 46 points. Can they carry us to a road win

Box score from 1st match up. It was close game last time due to 5 for them dropping 30

Most of the away games the local announcers just pee me off how bad they are. These guys are decent! Much more enjoyable game with them. Make them the offical Mac announcers

Feels like a trap game. Johnson had 32 points and 11 for their team had 28.

I think the reality is if they upgrade the seats the ticket prices go up. I am willing to pay maybe $100 more per season ticket for a 2026 level stadium seat lol I know I’m not everyone though

From an enjoyment perspective I say this every season. They need better concession options. And get new seats for the lower bowl. The chairs are old and falling apart. from a promo perspective they have done decent. The mascot day was a huge hit and this is 2nd straight year giving away a jersey! I would love to see a top tier talent for halftime. Such as Red panda. And then one more major promo that draws families. Like a bounce houses on the end zones.

This game comes down to shooting. Can we shoot well on the road. Sharron seems to be coming on late.hopefully Bowen stays hot! Something I found interesting is they also have a brother duo. Theirs are red head guards who shoot the 3 decent. Looks to be their starting PG and SG

ESPN predicts the percentage chance to win each game. And currently the zips are projected to win out the regular season. (56% chance to beat Troy is the closest game) I think it is there is still a chance for a 2 bid MAC!

Both okonkwo and Johnson are starting in big 12 basketball. Their teams are sub .500 Our team would have been loaded if money was not a factor. They both would have had more fun here. But who can blame them for getting life changing money

Huge game. A great opportunity to pad our seed line. It will be challenging. Need a “A” game from us !

Their 7 footer is at the top of the zone. It is unique that is for sure

I got a feeling this game will be like the Murray state game. Track meet. I give them the edge as they are at home. It all comes down to 3 point defense. If we win this one, huge for seeding

I think this will be a tough test. They start 3 6’9 guys and another 6’9 guy plays 15 minutes off the bench. If we win this game I will be all in on this zips team, being groce’s best team

Radio broadcast for me! Huge Game! Let’s go get it.

Does anyone know if this is a 1 for 1 is Tulane coming to Jar next season?

This game, Yale, SBC road game are our 3 biggest winnable non conference games. 0-1 so far. Must win if we want an 11 seed

This is a good practice game against size. We should win by 20 but hopefully we rebound and defend well!
