  1. After reading GoZips post, I'm glad to hear that Wistricill is looking out for the best interests of the athletic department in this process. Personally, I hope they go with the bigger arena that would seat around 7000. If we ever expect to keep KD as our coach, a 3800 seat space won't do it.
  2. Only for people who's egos are dependent on how 10 guys in short pants play a game twice a week.
  3. My source inside the university says high level meetings in the last few weeks have focused on selecting a design for a new basketball arena. Three different designs proposals were presented. They ranged from $69 million for a 7k+ design to $44 M for a 3800 seat design. At this point the committee is leaning towards the 3800 seat design. It would have chairbacks from floor to ceiling on the sides and bleachers in the endzones. Very intimate with the seating right on top of the court and nice amenities in the rest of the arena. I know this isn't what a lot of Zips fans had in mind when thinking of the future, but its what we can afford. Currently there is zero funding in place for any arena.
  4. Go cream-puffs go!
  5. I would be careful, his mom might have the same idea.
  6. I would suggest you either go to a game or watch one on TV or the internet to get your answer. In the WMU game, the minute he touched the ball on the offensive end, he was double and triple teamed. Same thing with NIU. Why do you think McAdams was able to go 6-6 from the field including 4-4 on three pointers.
  7. Check out this piece on BJ Gladden. His team is undefeated and ranked #1 in the Charlotte area. Make sure and watch the video. Article His team is also ranked in the top 25 nationally.
  8. I would imagine it is due to budget constraints.
  9. He and 2 other players have been in the coaches dog house. Not sure why.
  10. I think the trap is effective at times but we need to use it more carefully. I still want us to pressure full court on every made basket. It's part of our strategy of going 11 deep every game. The constant pressure starts to really wear on our opponents in the second half.
  11. Cincinnati recruits: Tuberville pulled scholarships without enough notice
  12. I sure wish KD would quit scheduling these cupcakes for home games.
  13. Espn's Myron Medcalf has revised his preseason Mid Major predictions.
  14. Please, his head is big enough already!
  15. Explains alot.
  16. The minute I saw Glen Mayborg was the head official at last nights game, I knew Zeke and our bigs were going to have a bad time. I appeared that he made every ticky-tack foul call he could think of last night. We finally got a call to go our way at the end when one of the other refs called a foul that gave us a new possession with 19 seconds left. That resulted in a new shot clock and forced Princeton to foul. Glen Mayborg
  17. Right now we only have 12 players on scholarship. Egner has officially left the program at the semester break. So that leaves us with four openings for next year and now we have 5 incoming players. It looks like Justice is on the hot seat now. His inability to handle the ball will be the reason for his departure. We have plenty of big guys, now we need someone to get them the ball. 2012/2013 players on scholarship; Zeke sr Walsh sr Chauncey sr Tree jr Harney jr Alex jr Melo fr Kretzer fr McAdams fr Deji so Pat F rfr Justice rfr
  18. I think he will have 2 years. I don't think you redshirt JUCOs. He is more of a combo guard than a true 1.
  19. He can take a hit just fine.
  20. KD remarked after the game the other night that Tree had started to take his time and it was really helping his offensive game. Last year when he got the ball he was in too big of a hurry and often put up awkward shots. I think KD said he was like a bull in a china shop. This year he is getting better at using good footwork to get an open shot.
  21. Can somebody stick a fork in this sucker? It's done! :horse: :horse:
  22. Their home game against St Francis drew 636 fans. ESPN
  23. A moral victory for No. 1 Walnut HillsEagles hang with national power
