This is why the roster was not released until today. He is a direct replacement for Shooky(maybe better). A gamechanger for the team. Big get for Embick.

Nope

We had a couple of opponents back out at the last minute. The schedule should be released soon.

There is still a good possibility that he could end up on the roster. By signing this contract he can now participate in all team events and training.

Right now all the new players are going through the compliance process. If they can not get eligible, they will move on.

Parking passes are now included for all season ticket holders. This is for every sport.

The football budget dwarfs any other sport at Akron. The only thing lacking in football is winning games.

There were several panel discussions at the reunion dinner tonight. One of them featured Len Paul, Steve McNeese, Eric McLaughlin and Bob Huggins. There was another group that included Jim Tressel, Bud Wentz and Charles Guthrie. The final group was John Groce and Enrique Freeman. Joe Dunn was the moderator and interviewed the panelists. There will be another reunion on July 26, 2025. Mark your calendars now.

They had a short scrimmage. Harris looked great. Young will give Tavari a good push for the point guard spot. Gray is a bull of a basketball player.

Today's ribbon cutting ceremony is open to anyone who wants to attend. Please park in lots 8, 9 or 10. There will be a practice session starting at 3:30 and the ribbon will be cut at 4:30. I would imagine some of the former players will be in attendance.

The dinner tomorrow night will feature many former players and coaches. Bob Huggins, Jim Tressel and Enrique Freeman just to name a few. Several players are flying in from overseas to attend. Keith Dambrot will hopefully be there if he can clear a few items off his schedule. This event is being run by alumni, not the athletic department. Guthrie agreed to help the organizers with some marketing and to secure the venue. The only official athletic department event is today's ribbon cutting ceremony for the new practice facility that starts at 3:30 pm. There are currently 220 people registered for tomorrow night's dinner. There is also a reception being held tonight at Prime Vine Winery. Please RSVP before arriving. Again, other than the ribbon cutting, all events are being run by alumni, not athletics.

I'll be there

There is a big Basketball reunion dinner on Saturday night at the student center.

Murphy was clipped on his heel from behind and never recovered.

He had a shoulder injury about mid-season and refused to do the rehab required to get back on the court. Some family members convinced him that he might re-injure it and hurt his chances of playing in the NBA. They were convinced the coaching staff wasn't using him properly and he deserved to be the starting center, not Big Dog. He was a very soft player and by the end of the season the staff was done with his antics. He wasn't included on the post season roster.

Charlotte has one of the worst highway systems of any major city. Note to Ohioans, it is worth the cost of the tolls to use the express lanes when traveling through on your way north or south.

Every single public university with the exception of OSU and Cincinnati are in the same financial trouble.

There is a new high definition ribbon board being installed at the base of the upperdeck on the east grandstand in addition to the new main board. This and the size of the main board will open up much more in the way of local sponsorship/advertising. BTW, all of this was paid for by Learfield. Around $1 million.

He decided it was time to retire and spend time with his family in Texas. Not everything has to be some kind of conspiracy theory.

UTEP could possibly pull that off!

All you have to do to fulfill your dream is to attend one of the Tuesday night games in late November.

Your lack of historical knowledge of Zips basketball renders these polls as worthless.
