  1. It's all about the turn overs with this team. The unforced ones in particular. It seems that every game a different player decides to play loosey-goosey with the ball. Q has progressed nicely since the beginning of the season. We can beat anybody if we take care of the ball.
  2. Lived in the Akron area most of my life. Attended "Hilltop High" in the late 70's, never got a degree. Season ticket holder for football since 1970, basketball 1975.
  3. Harney factor, 18 minutes, 2 points.
  4. One more video.
  5. Me either! His dad is a big guy too. Probably 6'7" and built like a football player.
  6. Coach Bowden was spotted at Green HS today. Senior WR Andrew Pratt is still available.
  7. Someone on their fan message board thinks one the advantages they have over us is their deep bench. Its one thing to play 8 or 9 guys, versus having 8 or 9 guys who could start on every team in the MAC like we have. If we don't beat ourselves by being careless with the ball, we win easily.
  8. I must have missed Phils passing with all the hustle and bustle of the holidays. For those of you who never met Phil, you missed out on knowing a great guy and one of the best Zips fans ever. There was no event that the athletic department ever held that Phil didn't attend or support. Us older guys remember Phil as the voice of the National Weather Service broadcasts from the Akron/Canton regional Airport. Phil, you will be missed. Frank Phillip Martin
  9. He's a front runner who only shows up when he thinks it a sure win.
  10. Lets see, the only guy on that night to go 0-2 at the line was.......... BHip.
  11. The ABJ holds back quite a bit of content before it gets posted on the web. They want you to actually pay for a copy of the paper every now and then.
  12. Take your smack somewhere else "Dude".
  13. I'm sure after last nights performance by UB, we will be ranked #4.
  14. Even the Plain Dealer is starting to realize we have something special going on at the JAR. On a raucous night, Akron zips right past Can't State: Bill Livingston Akron's second-half blitz pushes Zips past Can't State, 84-75
  15. My wife is there today. Is there something in particular you like? I'll have her pick it up for you.
  16. I guess your calling him out on this caused a big problem. The video has been removed by the user from YouTube.
  17. Same here. I only went .500 Saturday. My only regret is picking UB over MU.
  18. I was thinking more along the lines of Coach Bowden instead of Will Smith.
  19. Unless ZN.o decides to run some advertising spots on the program, I would say the odds of ZN.o being mentioned are zero. The show is about Zips basketball, not ZN.o.
  20. When Dambrot starts doing a show that is on the air 5 days a week and 52 weeks a year, you might have a point. Since we're only talking 15 shows, I'm sure KD won't need any vacation time from the demanding schedule.
  21. Joe Dunn is not the producer of the show, just the talking head. It might make sense to have one of the assistants on as a guest, but the last time I looked the show is still called "Zips basketball with Keith Dambrot".
  22. I doubt you're going to see the "fan thing" dropped. When I talked to Joe last week he told me the show is targeted to Joe fan, not the diehards. Even though us diehards here on ZN.O would love the program to be more technical, the average viewer could care less whether we run a zone or man to man. Too many X & O's and people just change the channel. He said he would take the suggestions from the members here into consideration, but with the limited budget they are working with, it would be difficult to get to provide much in the way of video breakdowns of strategy. I did like how he asked Zeke about what his thought process is when he gets the ball on the block.
  23. This whole firing is a mess. Since the "community activist" got elected to the school board I would expect more questionable decisions. Speculation surrounds dismissal of McKinley football coach Coaching controversy just latest chapter in life of social activist http://www.cantonrep.com/highschool/x34988...-on-Ron-Johnson
  24. You're talking to yourself again!
