  1. HC George O'Leary Pinocchio
  2. Like the Zips, you can also see the Great GP1 is rounding into shape for the fall season.
  3. No, we aren't. Yet another ill-researched preview. George Thomas declined to make any MAC standings predictions, admitting he'd got no clue about the state of the MAC. He deserves a tremendous amount of credit. 99.9% of the sports writers have no knowledge of the MAC, but write a sack of crap anyhow.
  4. Realistically-optimistic
  5. What is a "woild nut," and why do we like them? Only being a freshman, I know that AJ Fox didn't graduate. But perhaps he did granduate?
  6. John Edwards had an multi-year NBA career, so anyone doubting Zeke's ability to play in the NBA is a bit detached. BTW - at the golf outing, KD stated Zeke had a good summer. He was complementary of the big man.
  7. Bowden only signs/scholarships 1 QB per season, and we already have one committed. Gotto go somewhere... somewhere besides Akron.
  8. +1 ...and if I'm Emmanuel Laerty, I'm kicking some ass next Thursday.
  9. Good luck to him. He certainly has a heck of a high school career.
  10. While it is extremely tempting to ignore /igˈnôr'/ (verb) you, I am feeling generous today and will instead choose to enlighten you. The organizers of the tournament for which Marshall is postponing the Zips game were not in a position of power. Thus to secure Marshall in their tourney, they offered a deal of some cash and a home game with Princeton. How they had the ability to do so, or "why Princeton?", I didn't ask. If you want additional information, you should speak to some Zips coaches...like I did. Consider yourself enlightened. You are welcome.
  11. You understand incorrectly. Not only do the Zips get Princeton as compensation for Marshall, they get some cash too. And Marshall will still come to the JAR in the future.
  12. Assuming good weather, I'm confident we'll hit 17k ("real," butts-in-seats).
  13. The Zips will host Princeton this upcoming season. It was supposed to be Marshall...but they were needed to play in some tournament...so the Zips were given Princeton as compensation. And, Marshall will still be coming to the JAR...just not this season. The things you learn at the Zips golf outing....
  14. My "Moore is Less" jersey also never made it to the silk-screener.
  15. You can do anything from your dorm room in 2012. Take classes, pick up girls, talk to your friends, watch 200+ TV channels, play HD video games with your friends, watch Zips game on the computer, Ohio State on TV (every game is televised), ...it is an indoor society kids live in now-a-days. It is beyond apathy. It's just tough to pry them out of their room and into the real world for anything.
  16. The Era of The Process Record prediction: Ianello should have won 3 games last season, and he was a complete idiot. Bowden is smart, so he's guaranteed 3 wins. Plus one extra that the opposing MAC coach will simply give to the Zips. 4-8 K.e.n.t always sucks, so with the better of the two coaching staffs the Zips have a great chance to beat them.
  17. Who knew? How would you compare them to Bolivia or the Netherlands?
  18. Weren't we in the same situation when Butchie graduated, with completely unknown's Frye and Sparks? That worked out pretty good. I think someone will rise to the top. Bowden seems confident we're in ok shape at QB, so I'm confident too. And yes, it will be an interesting year. I'll take "interesting" over tragic...pathetic...sad...maddening...nauseating...and whatever other adjectives you want to use to describe what we've witnessed since the InfoCision gates opened.
  19. Jokes about the quality of Penn State recruits slipping from 4.5 stars... to 0.25 moon rocks?
  20. It was refreshing to read a Pluto article that was informative, and chock full of quotes. Not his cookie-cutter, Little Engine the Could re-write. Lots of thought-provoking insight: So we can add another fan- and player-friendly program to the list of events (golf outing, Meet the Team, etc.) that Ianello killed in his Sherman-esque march through the UA campus. How the F was this clown ever hired? Too bad it wasn't Brian Wagner stating that line. But I am happy for all the survivors who've swapped the Ianello Interment Camp for "Camp Zippy." Seems like going from Dachau to Disney. That's a great way to look at the returning players. If that isn't proof of the guy's positive point of view, I don't know what is. I see a huge parallel between Fleming's situation, and that of the 2010-11 Lot 9'ers, and ZN.o for that matter. We stayed because UA is our school, and the brotherhood, and sisterhood, of the diehards couldn't be broken no matter how hard Ianello tried. Walking out on the Zips wasn't an option. I expect tailgating in the Disney Lot will be much more fun than it was outside Dachau.
  21. When we travel to Athens, can we keep The Diff closer than -25? OU deserves to be the favorite. They've accomplished things multiple times over the past three seasons that I've only dreamed about for 28 seasons...and counting.
  22. From what I understand, Bowden told Joe -- "I'll go on your show under one condition - that you can't say the phrase 'No doubt about it.'" Deal-breaker.
  23. His chances of making the team are probably as good as him making the San Francisco Baseball Giants.
  24. And around Keener's vehicle will be The Brew Swarm!
