  1. "Roo Walk" sounds like a result of an injury, or simply a long day at the office for Zippy. Roos hop, right?
  2. The quintessential DIG post.
  3. Jefferson Lee from Virginia? Who'd a thunk it? I stick with my offer of a post-game meet-n-greet with some good fans in Lot 9 underneath the scoreboard. Afterwards, BW-3's or the Gyro shop (immediately next to each other, in the shadows of InfoCision) are a half sand wedge distance from Lot 9 and probaby your best bet for any sort of college game day environment. Keep in mind we're coming off a stretch where we've won 6 out of 37 games, so football game days are, volume-wise, a work in progress. And Zips Fever still has a few degrees to go before calling any doctors. But things are looking up!
  4. Dalton Williams dwarfs anything we've seen at QB since Getsy. Jacquemain had some nice games here and there, but Williams is The Man. PN7 sacked 16 times thus far. Ouch. BTW - Hope McDonald alum Matt Krumpak supplants Nicely soon.
  5. I think we might beat Toledo 75-56
  6. I remember that game. He reported to Frenchy on-air immediately afterwards -- "Well Steve, I made the world a better place, and punched a Penguin in the face. No doubt about it."
  7. The Europe Gyro across the street from Lot 9 (on Exchange) is a good place to get a gyro and jojo's. Brand new. TV's. Nice beer selection. If is isn't a recruiting violation, stop by our post-game tailgate in the shadows of the scoreboard. Should be a fun victory celebration, with a little food and beers. Luigi's on the outskirts of downtown is sort of a local "must eat" place. But no Saturday afternoon football feel. Maybe you can eat there after he commits? Welcome to UA! Hope you have a great visit.
  8. Strong "take" by Hilltopper!
  9. Zips Win! checking out the Dunn Show? I think Joe's listenership just doubled?!
  10. Also a "keeper"
  11. Looking forward to the Zips version - "Dadgum Style!"
  12. What's with the Duke fan in the photo?
  13. D'Orazio was a Brookhart recruit. He entered UA in January 2010, and didn't play in 2010, so his eligibility clock didn't begin ticking until 2011. He redshirted in 2011, so he is a redshirt Freshman in 2012...even though he's been on campus a combined 2.5 years as of August 2012. I doubt he'll take a medical redshirt. At some point you gotta graduate. If he could get 3 healthy seasons in 2013/14/15 I think he'd be ecstatic.
  14. Paraphrasing Bowden on the Coach's Show tonight: "Looking out on the field and seeing the disparity in size between the two teams would have been comical, if it weren't us out there."
  15. I did that quite a bit last season.
  16. Leading the league in "Opponent 3rd Down Conversions?" If only Lee Owens had Chuck Amato as his defensive coordinator. He'd be at Cincinnati instead of Ashland. How many Owens-era games did we lose because we couldn't force more than one punt per game?
  17. The kid is cursed with injuries. Too bad...he was becoming a solid #2 WR, and a consistent go-to guy for Williams. Hopefully one of the other WR's seizes the opportunity to fill the void. Pratt comes to mind.
  18. I-11-ello's "process" was a descriptive term used to buffalo people that what they saw on the field wasn't indicative of what was really going on. My favorite part of the Tennessee game was Coach B going for the win. Unlike JD, who was content to run clock and punt 19 times per game when he faced a Top 20 opponent, Bowden came up with an aggressive game plan and tried to win the game. And he almost did it. Dalton Williams was only about 3 mistakes away from being a legend.
  19. For those with DirectTV, the REPLAYS will not be blacked out. I think there is one at 1am Sunday morning, and another on Monday.
  20. I believe if ESPN3 picks up the game, then it is blocked on the out-of-area Comcast feed. I have had this issue with DTV in the past...even though I have the Sports Package, the games get blocked out.
  21. Just be grateful that OU doesn't have a soccer program, or the topic would have changed a lot faster.
  22. Did you see his ? Dude looks plenty nasty to me.
  23. Certainly the best recruiting class I've seen from UA. Congrats to the staff on a phenomenal job.
  24. Way off on the result, spot-on with Spencer Keith. One of the worst college football games I've ever watched. Low talent, terrible play-calling, multiple bungles...horiffic kicking...very poor national showing for the MAC. How did Buffalo give Georgia any sort of game?
  25. Suel's already here.
