Because they knew that there was zero chance of losing to BGSU, EMU, or UB. None of those teams would dream of playing UA at the JAR. They would likely lose to the Zips.
You can do that yourself. Just go to My Controls, Board Settings and change "Do you wish to view members signatures when reading topics?" to No. Just that easy.
Got a chance to see Lane in person last night at the Firestone vs Green basketball game. He is a man among boys, very chiseled and strong. He played the entire 36 minutes of the game. He had 17 points but Firestone was never really in the game losing 72-45. Kevin Gladney was also on the team. He signed with Nebraska as a wide receiver. I hope he is a better football player than he is a basketball player, because he was awful. If Firestone is the best team in the City Series it isn't saying much. The whole team had no chance against Green last night.
He went head to head against tOSU recruit Devon Tate. Tate got his points, but Jackson shut him down in the second half and Gahanna walked away with a win on the defending D-1 state champs floor. Jackson is another 6-7 wing player who can defend and shoot the 3 ball. Very athletic and long. He will fit right into the Zips lineup next year.
It will be really beneficial for Pat, if Isaiah Johnson is able to contribute some meaningful minutes next season. Just like this season for Zeke, he can be more aggressive without having to worry about fouling out.
You are delusional if you think the coaching staff doesn't want to upgrade the OOC schedule too. The only way we could schedule enough good teams to overcome having to play the bottom feeders in the MAC is to go all Ark-PB. Play every OOC game on the road. If we can keep up this attendance trend, we might have enough money to buy some games against better competition.
You aren't seriously trying to compare DeKalb to Athens? A city 60 miles from Chicago sitting right on a major interstate vs a hick town in the middle of nowhere?
