I've seen it too on IE11 but its always seemed to be when there was a picture posted at end of the thread that seemed to cause the problem.

I guess someone else thinks so too - she is apparently going to be in the next EPSN body issue.

Just the sort of comment you like to see from your rivals "groooaaaaan. As if Akron needs this type of talent. Ohio going to be put in a tough spot of sorts...". From the Hustle Belt article on Javon's transfer.

Now that the current HOF class has been announced they're going to start winnowing the list for the class of 2017, This happens to be the first year of eligibility for Jason Taylor along with some other notable players. The only new ones I see as being ahead of Taylor are LaDanian Tomlinson and Hines Ward. Of course there are plenty of currently eligible players as well, so I don't necessarily see him getting in on the first attempt but I'll bet it's no longer than three.

And a terrible situation to deal with right off the bat. :( Always wish Brian nothing but the best, I found he and his family are terrific people for the few times I was able to interact with them.

Wouldn't it have been better for them to post an actual picture of Jatavis?

I like that the picture they chose was one of him taking down an Oklahoma's Baker Mayfield.

And of course the old "level of competition" knock. Forgot he must have played most of his career at Morehead State. Never faced anyone like Pitt, Oklahoma, Penn State, Michigan ...

Once at a soccer game I happened to sit next to coach Boals who didn't know me at all but struck up a conversation anyway. Couldn't have been a nicer or more engaging personality. Happy for him but also happy he didn't end up in the MAC so that I won't have to root against him. :-)

What is this? Accurate information from a reliable source? This has to be a first on ZipsNation and Internet message boards in general. Thank you Donna.

Big Dog will have one less Big Man to play against next year, Antonio Campbell just declared for the NBA draft.

Good article I hope he gets a chance to catch on somewhere. I don't remember playing South Florida - I suspect FIU got lost in translation somewhere. :) Didn't mention playing at Michigan which was by far the best of the P5 games.

But bizarrely in his write-up on him lists him as a day 3 or UDFA. I am certain he will have a NFL job somewhere next year.

Fun little prank - especially naming the two design companies LIRPATurf and SloofDay Design - the first one I wouldn't have caught it on but the second was a little bit too obvious.

And because Bleacher Report is affiliated with CNN it's also on the CNN front page under sports. Only good thing is it is an accident and isn't really cause for truly negative publicity.

In a different article Elton also mentions how tough Buffalo's OOC schedule was this year especially as opposed to the rest of the MAC. Possible lesson there? Old Dominion (Conference-USA), St. Joseph (Atlantic 10), St. Bonaventure (Atlantic 10), Duke (ACC), Iowa State (Big 12) and VCU (Atlantic 10) were all on the schedule. All but St. Bonaventure were played on the road.

Quite the barn burner, at this pace the final would be 24-24 :-)

Here is something I've noticed - when a story is linked on GoZips.com it comes right back to the ZN.O story - like the following The Akron track and field program reaped the rewards for its efforts during the indoor campaign this season as five Zips garnered United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) All-America accolades.

I just hope whoever wins shoots like they are doing in the first half tonight. So this will be the Zips 8th appearance (in ten years - wow) and we have never faced anyone other than an East squad. BGSU is the only team we haven't faced. In the last 20 years, the west has placed a team in the final only 9 out of the 40 chances.

Especially when he drilled about a 35 yard goal against Michigan in the semis to tie that game up before the half.

Ladies unfortunately have kind of collapsed in the second half. Down by 5 with a minute to go. Have given up 18 offensive rebounds. Still a chance, though.

From the EMU Press Conference Transcript: Coach, I know it didn't really matter, but the timeout you didn't have, was there any way that final flurry could have turned out? COACH MURPHY: No, not really. They missed a layup and we got the rebound, so even if he doesn't call the timeout he would have had to shoot a full court shot so try try to make it. Instinctively he called a timeout. Really probably put us in a better situation for them to get the extra free throw. So bad plays turned into a positive play because the game pretty much would have been over.

Zips have got to win this one. The irony of losing as a 1 seed to the first 12 seed to ever make the semis and having beaten them for pretty much every game of the 21st century would just be too much to take.

Dr. Z did you get a press pass or something? Looks like you were right on the floor. Ease up a little, don't want the ABJ or PD to make you an offer. Thanks for those.
