So, are you saying that there was never a possibility of playing the Buckeyes, or did the game not happen because of a different set of circumstances?

PLease let us know the real reason then.

I heard they turned one down with the Buckeyes. Coach D didn't want 2 OOC loses.

My sources inside the Admin tell me that meetings have been takeing place in the last few weeks that indicate the stadium project is moving right along. All the property owners were brought in and the facilities/services people were told to be ready to staff and equip the new stadium for a fall 07 opening. What Dr. P wants, he makes happen!

Got an invite today for this banquet on the 13th. Is anybody else going?

Ran into a member of the coaching staff today at lunch and asked him about the possibilty of Romeo being a 2 sport player. His answer was that RT was there for a short while on one day messing around with his buds. Asked about the likelyhood of RT securing a release from the BB head coach, he laughed and said it would be zero. He said he probably would make a good DE.

By 11!!!

I think Rob has turned the corner and the credit has to go to KD and the staff. It seemed as though Rob would be another player along the lines of all the other Zips big men(read STIFF) and disappear. In my eyes he was the most improved player on the team. Lets hope he shows as much improvement next year. Also lets try to put some more meat on those bones. Thanks to all the players for a great season.

Thank you Swami!!!!!!

Per Go Zips.com, tickets went on sale today. It says in the article that the tickets are included in the season ticket package. When I called today to find out how to get them, I was told they would be available at will-call as soon as I paid for them? Soo, are they included in what we already paid or not? In the past when we received our ticket books there would be a ticket marked "First Round MAC Playoff Game". I'm confused.

Thanks JP, this is a one sport town(Spurs24/7). There was also a large article comparing the romances of Dennis Rodman and Madonna vs Tony Parker and Eva Longoria on the SPORTS PAGE!!!!! Makes the LeBron coverage in our market look sane.

Thanks for posting the entire article. I wasn't sure if the link would work for everyone.

I'm In San Antonio today and Isee this opinion piece in the local rag. http://www.mysanantonio.com/sports/columni....10325e780.html What a joke!

All I can say is LMFAO!!!!!!

If the first game was any indication Romeo Travis will have another big game. Can't will put extreme pressure on our guards all over the court. If we can break free for an entry pass it will result in alot of easy baskets for Romeo. But the real test will be who else will step up to the plate to make some outside shots. WE can't have very many scoring droughts or it will be a long game. Anybody else have any ideas?

SO you think Goddard deserves some playing time? at whos expense? Do you think he could guard Chet Mason in man to man defense? Goddard is nothing more than a tiny little role player on this team. We would have to be playing a team that was using a zone defense on us and we would have to be in a zone ourselves. He might be able to match up defensively with a few other guards, but anyone with some quickness would blow right bye. Bubba couldn't guard Mason last night and he seems quicker and has a bigger wing span. This is a defense oriented team and coach. If you don't play D or turn the ball over you won't play. Ask DP!!

Bubba had a real tough time trying to guard Chet"the jet"Mason last night. Masons eyes lit up when he saw Bubba on him and he immediatly took Bubba to the rack. The reason Joyce fouled out was trying to slow down Mason.

Did anyone else notice the MAJOR battle going on tonite between Dambrot and Peterson. DP played only 15 minutes on a night when we desperatly needed his scoring. The final time KD pulled him from the game, there were harsh words exchanged. KD even made mention of the situation during the postgame show. Is it because of some defensive deficiency, or too much one on one on offense,or...? Whatever the problem is , they need to get it resolved for the sake of the team.

I'll be there.

I think #5 showed he belongs today!

I have it from a very good source that an announcement about a new FOOTBALL stadium is not too far off. Dr. Proenza has a person scouring the books for the money to make it happen. He believes that AU must have an on campus football stadium to compete for todays student. Its all part of his plan to take AU from a "commuter" type school to a more traditional "residence" school. It has been proven that once Dr. P wants something he gets it!

Wrong, I was thinking more along the lines of TROLL!!!

I also talked to my McK booster friends about Hight. They said he was a tremendous talent but very tempermental. The coaching staff wanted him to play offensive tackle but he wanted to play TIGHTEND!. Thats what his suspension was all about. Once they other kid at TE was injured Hight took over and played quite well. Bottom line is this kid has a ton of talent, but getting him to play team ball might be a problem.

I perfer guys that are good players, no matter the size. I've seen to many of the likes of Zollner, Myers,Seibert, etc...

Zipster I think that would be a great idea. Perhaps we could get the Golden Knights demo team or a military flyover. Check out these links. October 1 means a better chance of good weather, which helps with the crowd. http://www2.acc.af.mil/airdemo/ http://www.usarec.army.mil/hq/GoldenKnights/
