Hilltopper

Injured I believe.

It appears Emily is not playing today. Down to 6 scholarship players and a volleyball player today.

GVH would be a good choice. He already knows all the donors and the community. He would hit the ground running.

The girls put up a great effort but just fell short. A couple of close calls in the last 3 minutes resulted in a 5 point swing for WMU. Shelbee Brown was amazing with 32 pts and 19 rebounds.

I must have been wrong about last season.

No. OOC games in the middle of conference season have no value.

Joe Akron is a cheapskate.

And this is why the coaches think this whole thing is just a waste of time. $50,000 expense for no return.

Parking in the deck is free. The athletic department made a deal with the parking company. It's been that way for the last 2 seasons.

Only 8 healthy players. One of them is a freshman who just arrived on campus atbthecstart of second semester. 3 starters from the beginning of the season lost to injuries and personal issues.

Maybe @ZZZips can chime in on this. He has a better understanding of the situation.

Enrique's family is from Puerto Rico. Vayqeuros De Bayamon is a team in Puerto Rican professional basketball league. It looks like they drafted him.

It might have something to do with their arena is basically a big barn sitting in the middle of a cornfield. At least they got rid of that awful floor design.

Nice crowd. The Zips are off to a good start. Leading 25-12 after 1st qtr.

Thank you for such a reasoned response to the issues facing UA. I love athletics but I also recognize the limitations a school of our size is facing in this new age of NIL. My hope is that we continue to not go full in to this arms race that we can never win. Hopefully the new administration can find the right formula to have a balance of academics and still maintain a presence in sports.

Guthrie hit the lottery when the new president at UA decided to force him out. The Fordham job is a big step up for him. As far as other coaches not liking him, I call BS on that. A move to Fordham for them would be a great career move too. Better league, much bigger budget and a better academic institution.

"Teamism" wins again.

This is a hall of fame level post. It totally lays out the ridiculous delusion of NIL and TP for 90% of student athletes.

There are lies, damned lies, then there are statistics.
