Akron has landed Wake Forest transfer Mike Wynn, per Goodman. Sit one, play two.

From Jeff Goodman- Sacred Heart transfer Cameron Parker (9.9 ppg, 7.8 apg) told me his finalists are FIU, Hawaii , Portland State, Montana and Akron. Sophomore set NCAA single-game assists record with 24.

Here is a quote from Ohio State’s coach about next season. “And then obviously, we have a really good mid-major coming in that just won their league early in the season in Akron. That will be a fantastic game. I think they won 24 or 25 games.“

I can’t imagine how these kids feel. Such a special season! From the feeling cutting down the nets last week to this. Unbelievable

A lot of empty blue seats for the senior ceremony

Frye is back with BG

Akron best Xavier is a scrimmage. Both teams did not play all their key players (I don’t know who).

2020/PG/Garvin Clarke from Cleveland Heights, Ohio (HS) committed to Akron.

Great announcers on ESPN. Instead of Nick Harney they called him Nick Haney. i think Cooper has put on a post college 50 lbs!

Akron has signed Tre Edwards, a wing from Toronto, source told @Stadium. Played with UPlay and was at Hamilton Heights for two years. Did post-grad year this year at Link Prep. Just saw this on Twitter

Dos Anjos picked LMU

2019/6-1/G/Greg Tribble of Huntington Prep, WV has committed to Akron, per a source.

Utomi to USC.

Oats is going to Alabama 13 days after signing an extension.

Mikal Dawson’s Huntington Prep team beat Spire 74-71. He was the game MVP with 25-7-4 playing against high level future D1 talent. Hopefully he can give us some good minutes next year.

6 years ago tomorrow the season ended for KD’s best team with a 44 point loss to VCU. Some of the best players on that team (Aberu, Tree, Harney) left Akron/ we’re kicked off the team, eventually quit on the team (Pat F) or should have been on the team, but were suspended for the year (Diggs). This day started the decline of Zips basketball. Williams & Noah were leaving whether KD stayed or left. The program has had problems the last 6 years not 2. Lets support what we have instead of wishing we had something the we don’t.

Also, E-Man is one of the 275.

The official NCAA transfer list is already at 275. College basketball is different than it was 5 years ago. Most teams are going to have to adjust, especially the mid-major teams. This could be where we find the PG we need.

Utomi leaving as Grad transfer

Buffalo today is what Akron should have been 5 years ago. We never made the jump from good to great, they have.

Every team plays a horrible half sometimes, but this team doesn’t appear to care.

Josh had 49 points & 15-3’s last night!

Parrish heading to Nevada. That’s a step or two up from us.
