Zips Win!

Now, I lost all respect.

Baloney. Why waste your time with a D2 player?

Anyone know what the mesh black zipper bag that we received in our gift bag is used for? Golf shoes?

Thanks for this earth shattering news.

Sure voters care about tax increases, but when they hear the Zips are a lock for the ACC with a new arena, this passing is as guaranteed as a Zeke Marshall blocked shot at the rim.

I'll take him.....

I give him two. Senderoff gets one more year. Then Can't can send him off.

I'll take 85-86. Marcel Boyce loses to none of the other listed teams. Take it to the bank!!!!

Thanks JZ84 for stating it perfectly.

I find this topic both fascinating and ridiculous. Of course we all want the Zips to make progress. But by whose definition? Administration may want to "make progress" by moving to a better conference, but if they were held personally accountable financially for all the loses we would incur, they would think otherwise. The minute they take credit for moving up, they are gone to another school and we are stuck dealing with the losses. (on the field) Fans want progress as well. But that progress can be made in the MAC. Copy what NI did in football with a BCS game and what OU did with a sweet 16 run, and there is your progress. Heck, a sweet 16 run for UA would be more impressive than a NC at tosu with our budget. Accept that and enjoy it. A more suitable venue? Well, when you find one, let me know. None of the power 5 would take us, we would never get a bowl bid or make the NCAA hoops tournament in the AAC conference. We would be hard pressed to get a bowl bid or make the tournament in Conference USA. If you think the Big Dialer is empty now, wait until North Texas visits. I appreciate the jump to 1A status, but anyone who wailed when we made the move in 1986 was correct. Going Independent was a huge mistake. Thankfully the MAC allowed us in.... My vision is simple- Let's copy NIU and a BCS bowl bid and OU's sweet 16 run on a consistent basis- in the MAC, thereby putting my move to vegas on hold, permanently.

Why stop there, I hear the SEC will be calling!!

Or, we can keep both football and basketball in the MAC where we belong.

Somewhere, Akron great Joe Jakubick is disappointed today.

Listening to post game since 1350 went out more often than not during the game.. I cannot wait for pud Dunn to remind everyone how much depth we have!!! Yikes!!!

I heard them. It was because no other MAC school came to mind so they all picked the Zips.

I prefer the Tilted Kilt.

This schedule is like the MAC commish. They both blow! I would rather play 12 Saturday afternoon/early evening games not televised than any amount televised by ESPN played on a weeknight. All they do is talk about the upcoming BCS games during the telecast so who really cares there is a game going on in the background. Good luck to the guys in the ticket office!!! I cannot wait for those evening games in November on a Tuesday. Heck, we can probably move the game to the field house...

If you look closely at the minutes played yesterday….Just kidding! I love going to BG for hoops. Haven’t seen a loss on their campus in a decade! The only place that the ZipsWin! jinx does not apply.... Their gymnasium still blows. It has to be the worst designed “new” arena ever built. Glad to see 300 BG students showed up and 250 left at halftime. Spacing- I couldn’t agree more. When my daughter was learning to drive, I reminded her daily that spacing on the road is the only place where it is more important than on a basketball court, so pay attention. Yesterday, I thought the first half was a pretty good display of spacing. Reggie hitting threes, Q driving and making short jumpers, everyone else hustling. As mentioned here, the second half was too much half court into Tree facing a triple team, hence the five turnovers... If we can get the right mix of Q on the perimeter driving and Tree down low, I like our chances, three-point bank shots and all....

So, can anyone name all of the greyshirts, transfers and other commits that total 24. 13 new recruits 1 open 10 ? TB did mention (with JZ's help) 3 or 4. Who are the other 6?

+1 Dude has rendered ZNO a waste of time for me and many others. I thought I heard the knitting group calling.....

And by not playing others.....

Harney's defense on UT's guards will be the difference in the game!!!

BW is opening at 10 AM. C u there.

So are there any local restaurants opening up early for a pregame cold one? Euro Gyro opens at 10:30.

Just back from OU... OU fans BLOW...aka the Blow Zone. Sure they show up which I give them props. But they are a bunch of crybaby wanna be osu fans with the OHIO chant. Go away! It's amazing that with every obvious walk or foul on OU the place complains like a bunch of babies..but when the same thing happened to the Zips they all go crazy. Watch the game. Believe it or not, even OU commits fouls and turn it over. Deal with it! Stop complaining!
