No one said anything about a loss....

If you look at the box score last night, he played 9 guys, actually 7 if you look at minutes, that is ridiculous, they need some rest..... that is KD for you though.....

Maybe thats because Goddard has never got a chance to show you that... give him 5-10 minutes a game and then make your decision....

Can't only up by 2 with 7 minutes left!

Heck, he's played everyone else, throw Goddard in there and let him hit some 3's

I agree, this one wasn't Bubba, he was 6-13 at three, that's almost 50% and not bad at all.

I'm pretty sure the reason Rybak is getting minutes is because Coach D is frustrated with Conyers play and is trying anything he can right now....

Not sure I agree, when you have Asst. Coaches telling KD to put players in, I guess they are wrong too, KD is the king you know. As for defense and teamwork, when you get in for 2 minutes at a time, I am thinking, if I am one of those players, I am all about me... even Salee is showing signs of it, shooting the airball three after he made a shot. Why pass the ball, there is less than 1 minute left!

Did anyone say 10 minutes? Even 5 minutes would be nice instead of the 2 minutes he gives these players.Oh and you forgot his 5 rebounds.And what do you see better from these players?With their limited minutes? Give me a break. TOTALS GP MIN OFF DEF TOT PF FO A TO A/TO HICONYERS, Jimmy...... 23 193 18 21 39 31 0 6 20 0.3 9 McKNIGHT, Chris..... 24 196 17 36 53 20 0 7 11 0.6 9 RYBAK, John......... 13 63 4 9 13 10 0 4 2 2.0 6 CARROLL, Tim........ 7 19 2 4 6 1 0 4 0 99.0 4 SOWERS, Zach........ 9 22 2 2 4 0 0 0 0 0.0 4 SALLEE, Jeremy...... 16 63 2 5 7 5 0 19 13 1.5 2

Oh, I think you are right on the money with what he is thinking. Let's see, has it happened yet? No.... Nick Goddard has scored 49 pts, in 47 minutes of play, chew on that for while KD.....

Asst. coaches were trying to get subs in game earlier, but KD won't budge, what gives? I really don't think our subs are going to hurt anything, in fact they are like scoring machines at the end sometimes and KD doesnt like it because it runs up the score, yet.... put them in with 2 minutes to go? Doesn't make alot of sense when you are up by 20 almost the whole game does it?

Why does Dru always seem like he has to take the last shot? And a forced shot at that, Goddard was wide open.....

Why dont you stop with Goddard and even the other walk-ons.? You have no clue unless you go through what they go through. If goddard wants to quit, he quits, he is probably just fed up like Chad Mraz was last year when he quit. If he can't play defense why was he thrown in the Neveda game? To shoot a 3 I am sure, but the coach had to see something else to put him in. Sowers, Rybak, Sallee, Carroll all sit too, can they play defense? I think so, it's called look whats in front of them, good players, that is why they sit. Yeah I am sure its the chance of a lifetime to sit on the bench with this team, but sometimes you just want to play.

Website says around 3500 attendance. They also announced during the game that Ohio lost to Miami today!

Geez, hoopla, did I hit a nerve? Wow! Maybe Rasor did too, read this from him...it's not like I make this stuff up!http://blogs.ohio.com/rasor/

What a terrific game and experience in general! My only comment on the preceding comments is, who of Can't's rotation is Nick going to guard? I would say the same guy Nick Dials is guarding!

Can someone tell me why Ced is not starting and Nick Dials is? That's a question going around the crowd last night!

Where is Nick Goddard in a game like this? I thought I heard Dambrot say when we see a zone Nick is getting in... he could of really helped us last night. Yeah we lost Walther because of defense but look at what his offense is doing for Ohio U. He is winning games for them, sometimes it's not all about defense!

I like the jingle at the end.

Nick Goddard is not horrible at everything else and should get at least 10 minutes a game. This has been heard from a lot of people. Nate did not look good last night.Quade was awesome.

Is the team even going to make it to Oklahoma today with this weather, I dont know what airport they go through, but Chicago is shutdown right now!

I also noticed not one billboard around the Akron area like last year, why not?

I disagree, from what I have seen, Barbo has alot of learning to do and a red shirt might be just what he needs.....

This was in Buchtelite article quoted from Dambrot:"There are still a lot of questions about who is going to play behind who," Dambrot said. "This team is a little unsettled. We have a lot of growing to do to be an upper-echelon team." Dambrot said Akron is slowly developing a rotation. Last season, then-senior reserves Rob Preston and Darryl Peterson were integral players. "To me, the biggest issues we have are the fourth post man and the backup (small forward)," Dambrot said. "We were more settled last year." What do you think the answer is? What do you think rotation will be?
