Zips Win!

http://www.foxsportsohio.com/05/26/11/Buck...amp;feedID=3725 A great read....O-Lie-O...

http://www.cleveland.com/osu/index.ssf/201...ditional_f.html Did anyone see the linked (I hope so) article on Wednesday in the PD? This more than anything else is why I'm such a big fan.... The buckeye beat writer wrote an article explaining why OSU and a some of the bigger BCS schools want to pay players a stipend between $2K and $5K. The idea of paying players is nothing new. I realize that the OSCheaters with their $123 million dollar annual budget can afford to do so. But read just how pompous their asshole, cheating, cover-up AD really is. It's no wonder Smith and Tressel get along. First, Smith rips on the MAC with his "....The reality is that they're not competing with us anyway". Really Geno....Yet you somehow find a way to schedule two MAC games a year.. But we aren't competing with them.... Secondly, the idea of super-conferences was discussed. Ol'Geno thought better than to want to place his buckeyes in a superconference where he might have to play 6 or 8 really hard games a year. In this instance, he wanted status quo...You know, so he can continue to play schedules ranked in the 60's.... Then, instead of taking the hit for his renegade, cheating players selling their memorabilia, ol' Geno believes that the paying of his players is the solution to avoiding NCAA violations and is real the problem in college athletics. Really Geno!! I think you should start taking some responsibility for your dirtbag program and fire the coach and then resign. Let Gordon Geek hang himself.

Just when you think this story is coming to an end, more allegations appear!! Loving every minute of this....And all the honks have to say is, "Well everybody is doing it, so it's no big deal".. What a bunch of morons.......

I would love to go. But I didn't receive an invitation. I wonder if the fans who actually go to the games will get an invite. Or is this based on contribution level?

Where was his UNC lid?

Both teams deserved to be there. However, it was still the worst college hoops game I have ever witnessed. And this includes the games at the JAR where B. Hip was draining threes from all over the court.

At least we get a weather update from the Info with every practice release...

Today is Jim Tressel's kinda day....Don't believe a word he says today... Did you know that April 4 is National Tell-a-Lie Day?

A huge Zips fan once told me, "It's hard to be a Zips fan". It's never been more evident than in this thread. Fans that give a damn can't see practice, videos that give you no real information are posted like they are doing us a big favor, and then we receive the observations of media members- Rasor and Karman, a noted buckeye honk. Why are these clowns allowed into practice? I agree with GP1, while I appreciate a little information on the team, Rasor is a builder. If we have to get worse before we get better, lord help us all. How is getting worse even a possibility? It's the MAC for crying out loud....

Thanks Jim. If I could get into practice to watch, I would post how it was going. It is a big secret at UA...

Also, the fact that they do not have to spend money on a football program is a big help. Imagine, for a moment, if we didn't have a football team. Imagine the money that could be allocated to all of the other sports. Imagine if we had a really good football program. Imagine if we drew 25k every Saturday in the fall. Imagine the excitement that would be instilled in the community and campus. The argument that football drags down the MAC/Zips Basketball is absolutely W-R-O-N-G. BAD football drags down the MAC, and Zips Basketball. Basketball Guy needs to hold UA Athletics accountable for it's bad/atrocious football. Not simply point a finger at football in general. If football isn't winning, and InfoCision isn't packed, someone needs to be held accountable, and something needs to change. UA football is an albatross that is holding UA down. And with the new stadium, and awesome new coaching staff (Tom's choice), the Era of Excuses is over. Under the correct leadership, UA Football could be a gem. For UA to reach it's full athletic potential, it MUST be a gem. We finally have a schedule with six Saturday home games. Unfortunately, we don't have a team that will put 25K butts in the seats. While noble, the idea that anyone is going to pack the Info for every home game with 25K fans is ridiculous...unless you give away the tickets. A few games in the early fall, maybe. Once it gets cold, no way... Most Basketball Guy's at UA don't really care about UA football. They are in c-bus all fall. So they will not be holding anyone accountable.

Actually, I'm sad to see Geno go. I thought he proved to be a good regular season coach, but did not prove anything in the tournament over three seasons. I liked Can't a whole lot better with Geno at the helm than taking a chance that they find a gem of a replacement . Ditto for Coles at MU. I hope he stays there for many more years... If he gravy trained a medioce run into more dough, great for him. There will probably always be an OU gig in the future as long as he doesn't fail miserably.

More lies come to to light...Lies, lies and more lies.....

Kentucky Ale never tasted so good....

Dancing

This explains why everyone got tickets...Many of us will be stuck in the upper level...these same tickets you could probably scalp for 50 cents on the dollars.... Let's see who the "big donors" are and if they actually went to a game at the JAR.

More news.... Herby forced out of c-bus as idiot buckeye fans hassle wife and family because Kirk does not kiss-up enough on national tv. He is relocating to Nashville... LOL

Great! I just realized that THE UA hoops watch party scheduled for 4:30 at the Barley House will be overshadowed by tOSU. I cannot wait to get to see THE medium ten champioship game while getting waited on by a staff decked out in silver and red while we lead up to THE selection show!! Sorry, but this really sucks and we need to find a better venue to celebrate our championship. Surrounded by cheating buckeye fans is not how I envisioned it...

After watching last night, you can start and finish the list here. Amen.

All things considered, I thought yesterday's game was one of the better officiated games we have had at the Q. If we hit our 10 missed lay-ups, no one would have noticed the officials..

With the scheduled 7pm news conference by The Death Penalty University, I would expect a late arriving crowd this evening. Come on Zips, let's end this great day with a win over EMU.

Rumor has it that FIU has been moved to October 8th. Either we get a bye in the second week or hopefully we move a MAC game to Sept 10th.

Had no idea where I sat my ass made a difference!! One could also say that my presence in the arena made all the difference with the Zips best ever smackdown on the raod at BG. I will be back in my lower seat tonigt....

What do you know, the Zips surge to number 3 and Miami is the luckiest team in the country. I had no idea they kept that stat!! Who the hell is Ken Pomeroy?

Or, it may piss off so many UA alums that they would never support UA again. For sure in football...Maybe in hoops..
