Jabari Arthur also started as a QB and turned into one of the best receivers we ever had.

Young man proudly wearing his new Zips shirt. Think we have a new young fan.

This one still scares me a little, but with three big games following it, it is pretty much a must have. Crawford didn't play well against us last time, but Cameron Black did. While I think BGSU has a pretty good shot at upsetting Can't at the Stroh, I think we hold serve at the JAR. Zips 76 BGSU 67.

Anyone remember this helmet that Bills safety Mark Kelso used to wear? It was specifically designed to reduce concussions with a layer of styrofoam underneath that outer shell. A couple players wore them but most wouldn't because they thought it looked stupid.

Doubt it was deleted. New members sometimes take a little while to get posted and so only the mods can see the posts initially. If you noticed, the only respondents to OT were moderators.

That was a good question, so I looked it up. ESPN has the records of each team in the NCAA tournament. Every MAC team has won at least one NCAA tournament game at some point in their history, save Akron, NIU (0-3) and Buffalo (never made the tournament).

Too bad we didn't have a home game in an important year. Well we'll have one next year in what might be an equally important one. Finish the MAC schedule strong!

Man, Brian Walsh has really been off his game today. Wonder what the three percentage is today. Gotta be down around 20%.

Back to within three. C'mon Zips!

Horsesh*t call on Zeke. Absolutely clean block.

Yeah, but the next one wasn't so bad. Brett's was far, far uglier and he's supposed to be a three point shooter. Nice run by the Zips. Mostly done with good defense.

What are we shooting? 20%? And how many second chances have we given them?

Going from bad to worse. ORU can't make a first shot but gettig plenty of follow ons. Quincy misses a dunk and then a cheap foul on Abreu. Ugh.

Buffalo not helping right now either. Down by 12 to SDSU at the half.

I would have guessed Gilliam had 4-6 points in this game. He was the leading scorer with 14. None of the MAC West teams can knock the Zips out of a top 4 seed now. A win against BGSU and top four is guaranteed. The last MAC team to start 11-1 in league play was the Can't State Elite 8 squad so that's a nice sign too. And while I am thinking about it, I really like that the Bracketbusters gives a break from league play.

I think we may be seeing the end of the assassin. In the post game interview KD mentioned he was going to choke Nik if he kept taking those early threes. Don't think his three point attempts tonight (0-4) were a result of coaching.

I've been to their stadium. It's not bad but Infocision is nicer. I imagine a few places use that "eye" motif.

Fortunately, it settled down about the same time the Zips did.

I'll save you the trouble, it's cutting in and out, no sound - this is as bad as I've seen it. Happy to have it, but ...

These are the kinds of games that make me nervous. It's a game we should win and need to win, but Miami is better than their record. This could be one of those games the team might figure they can coast on with the more difficult schedule still to come. I predict a Zips win, but by no more than 10.

Steve will be there. That might scare Charlie all by itself.

Eastern lost to Central tonight, putting the MAC West "leader" at 6-6. I think there is almost no chance of a Western team getting a top four seed with five East teams standing at 7-4 or better right now.

Flashes take out the Bulls 76-71. Still not sure if that's good or bad. Buffalo is 0-15 all-time in Can't State's gym.

Plus its one one of the more accessible locations and if I am an opposing fan I'm thinking I have a real chance to see my team win on the road. Maybe that is where we'll get our big attendance increase.

My hopes for him? That no matter where he goes after UA, he lives a long, healthy and happy life. What a great young man.
