Captain Kangaroo

He'll be an Oakland Raider in about 4 weeks, not a Zip.

I agree. This year's schedule gave us a chance at an at-large bid, and kept us in the national at-large discussion into late-February. Next season we should have CSU, Marshall, Creighton and Oral Roberts at home. Maybe ORU in 2013-14, but we'll see. Regardless, the neutral court games in Puerto Rico, plus the high-mid-majors @ home, give us a great shot at breaking through the glass ceiling next year. But we still have 5 or 6 games left in 2011-12 before we need to contemplate the distant future.

He also would pick Harney over Q and Tree for 6th Man. Pretty much confirms he saw the Zips once this season...@ BG.

He finished 2nd. Not 13th.

Original thread here.

He's hustled his ass off all season. With knee surgery in late-December, he returned to action ahead of schedule so the Zips had a shot at beating VCU...we had absolutely no chance without him. He's a solid 3-point shooter, and always comes up with big steals. Abreu has been been a warrior all season. I've only gained respect for his game as the season's progressed.

I agree. Screw those who poo poo the importance of post season All MAC Tailgating Teams. I'll put our ALL MAC 1st Teamers' up against any of those BCS Tailgating punks with their $500,000 Winnebegos and store-bought corn hole boards!

My advice - Resist temptation and start with 12oz curls. Don't jump straight into the 23 ouncers.

Ziegler and Stainrook 1st Teamers? I bet the 2nd Team would beat the 1st Team in: 9-out-of-10.

I hear he has been working hard on his 6-pack abs?

"STO/MAC"? Sounds like a marketing opportunity for Tums or Pepsid?

Are entrance fees of boxes of Mac-n-Cheese and used $1 scratch off lottery tickets over? Just curious. Cheap-ass, relative, 1-day-per-year Zips fans are asking me.

Yeah, that propane injury set him back. I think the only good move Ianello made his entire tenure was deciding to redshirt ZipsWin! in 2011. I don't want to sound like a stalker, but I have seen ZipsWin! at BW-3's several times over the winter, usually before basketball games, and he appears to be rehabbing hard. I predict not only will he tailgate in 2012...I say he earns his scholarship back!!

Bowden may have lost Wagner, which is a blow to the Zips defense for 2012. But he kept Keener in the fold, which is the key to quality tailgating in 2012. Thank you Coach Bowden!

The Zips are a great fast break team, and a bad half-court offensive team. When we play hard-nose D we get stops, and fast break opportunities. When we play lazy D, the opponent makes shots, and has time to get back. It makes all the difference in the world when we're in the opponent's grill on the perimeter, and Zeke is being disruptive in the paint. D is the key.

Depends on where you're from...

Won our first outright Men's Basketball Regular Season Championship. Beat K.e.n.t., in K.e.n.t., to achieve it. Awesome job guys. It doesn't get any better. How many different posters can join me in this thread? 75? 175? Let's see...

Awaiting a response to this question....should be a doosie.

K.e.n.t. should have been up by 20 at the half. They suck. I promise that.

I think the OU fan that started this thread can't spell Abreu's name correctly. An action which is consistent with most of her posts.

If you need a beer in InfoCision, then you are a tailgating wuss. Or just don't know how to put cans of beer in your pocket. I predicted it 3 years ago. Hope it is true, so I can chalk up yet another stupid thing UA did that I told them they'd reverse.

Your living room must void of light because there is no way in hell McClanahan came CLOSE to traveling. His 1st dribble came abour 0.005 seconds after his FIRST foot hit the ground, let alone a second. Excuses for the refs on those traveling calls are pure fantasy. It is no wonder they traveling calls disappeared in the second half, after setting an NCAA D-1 record for travels called in the 1st half. Someone from the MAC office called them at 8pm and told them to cut it the F*** out. I still marvel at the travel call on Zeke on his 1st shot of the Buffalo game. MAC refs suck. Please, someone reviewe tape. But we won anyhow.

My wife just emailed me the current time, and confirmed Can't State still sucks. Back to work.

I have to believe this is a misquote, since any reporter with a clue would have followed up such a response with: "So you are telling me you prefer to lose to K.e.n.t? On national television? Can you please elaborate? I've never hear that from a Zips player, in any sport, before." That quote is pure Ianello.
