  1. Need to meet my fellow alum one day. Thanks for posting...wish I could read the article.
  2. All that would do is increase the number of transfers dissatisfied with their time on a Power 5 team's bench. Let them add 30 scholarships...who cares...they can still only play 11 on offense, and 11 on defense. The only effect I see on a MAC school is we might not get as good a kicker recruit.
  3. Oh crap. Now we won't be able to compete with Ohio State for recruits. What a gamechanger.
  4. Does anyone have a link to the Tweet Ohio State sent the Zips when we played for the soccer National Championship? I'd like to compare ours and theirs. Any of the Championship games will do. Thanks in advance.
  5. I have watched a lot of Wichita State basketball over the past couple years. They're always on some Fox/Comcast regional channel. They run some great, effective inbound plays. They work at the Division 1 level, and they're simple enough to use in my rec league coaching. I also watch a lot of Zips games. I've never seen an inbound play worth using.
  6. Fun game to watch last night. CMU is a bunch of flopping, whiny crybabies. "Waa waa waaa, my player fell down...go to the monitor!" Would be be better with Tree, or without him? Seems like, "without." Nice job by Dambrot this season. He's getting the most out of his talent.
  7. Complete bio Seems like a good hire. Glad the vacancy was quickly addressed.
  8. #CamRIPus_Lounge!
  9. The steak sandwiches are really good. The beer selection is good, but not great. The place is clean, and, for Exchange Street, pretty classy. Plenty of room. Tons of TV's...but for whatever reason they seem to always have the same thing on every TV? I will probably be there. I like it. I'd recommend you go, get a sandwich and fries (those are really good too) and if you hate it you can go to the Gyro shop or BW's afterwards. I think you'll like it. If their management was smart, they pass out coupons at the JAR after games, or offer pre-game specials. IMO it has the potential to be THE pre-game hangout. But they need to do some advertising work.
  10. It isn't actually a problem. Tell you what...I'll save 30 of them for you each Tuesday night in November.
  11. Could be the same score for the CMU-Zips game Saturday night.
  12. Lot 9 was already the tailgating spot. You could already save spots for your buddy without any problem. When people that don't drink spearhead policies on tailgating, it ends poorly. UA has shown me over the past 5 years that they have no clue regarding tailgating and what constitutes a "college game day environment." This crew succeeded in making a brand new, 65 million dollar stadium a worse place than the Rubber Bowl. I'll keep doing what I've done for years. Hope the new "organized fun" works out great for everyone. Lot 9 will be rockin' on November Tuesday nights for sure.
  13. Maybe the Zips get a player in the NFL in 2015-16?
  14. I would estimate the ratio of t-shirts and balls that reach the JAR second seating level to be 1:100. Our cheerleaders throw like Clayton Moore's sister. And, left-handed. And, into the wind.
  15. They are forced to drive to the Q two...three or four times in March, and they seem to survive just fine. If season ticket holders grouse over a short drive to Cleveland, to play a top 25 team on a neutral court, instead of playing Arkansas Cream-Puff at the JAR, they should relinquish their season tickets.
  16. No CK sighting. I told Ibitayo to pick up his game in my absence. How's he doing?
  17. Not a shocker... that's the way that guy rolls. Hope we don't hire him a 3rd time. Next man up.
  18. I disagree, my tankard-toting friend. You sell Mike Waddell too short. He was instrumental in creating them.
  19. Boise State and TCU didn't sit around with their thumbs up their butt, whining about an "even playing field." They got better. They hired great people. Odd concept.
  20. A six of them?
  21. My nephew took this photo of the UA Athletics Department parking lot next to the JAR last night (approximately 3am) -
  22. Did we send a good luck tweet to the Bucks when we played them in soccer a couple months ago? Probably did...
  23. What would Caleb Porter think? What an abject slap in the face to all the Zips fans that put The University of Akron first.
