  1. Why Dan Hipsher Should Keep His Job

    in Akron Zips Basketball

    Posted

    Seriously...is there any possible reason why he should be coach in 2004-5?

    Overall record: Horrible

    Tourney record: Horrible

    Player retention: Bad

    Major Out of Conference Wins: None

    Tenure: 9 years

    Excessive Cost to Terminate?: Nope. Either use the money saved when Owens quit towards a buyout, or "reassign" the guy and hope he follows Owens lead.

    It is impossible to be truely successful in NE Ohio Hoops with a 6,000 seat arena: Can't State has 6 consecutive 20 win seasons.

    It is impossible to win at Akron: Bob Huggins had 4, 20-win seasons in 5 years.

    Next year's team will be "loaded," so he shouldn't be release now: Gee...how many times have we heard that?

    Can anyone give me a reason why he should stay? Just one? Why do I have to go home with some moral victory (yay, Dru Joyce got 23 points...but we lost again) and an excuse every week (gosh, we learned about the suspensions after practice the day before the game ), while Can't is drubbing teams in front of a packed house on ESPN2 every week?

    :angry:

    Would Pitt come to the bowl?

    Funny you mention that...

    In 1998(?) the Zips played Pitt in football. We moved the game date to accomodate a September Pitt-Penn State game. In return, the Zips were to get a home-home Pitt hoops game, or a date with Pitt @ the Rubber Bowl. Our AD screwed up and didn't get it in writing...so Pitt backed out and we got nothing for moving the game date.

    By the way...If you think that Pitt...after losing to Toledo in the Glass Bowl last season...will ever step foot in a MAC stadium again...you've been tokin' on some of Josh Cribbs' stash!.

    Of course...if in the future the "Big LEast" begins to flounder due to the departure of BC, Miami and Va Tech...they may have no choice but to schedule MAC teams on a home/home basis. That would be pretty cool.

    Or, I could see when the Zips open their new stadium they could bring in a Pitt-type team, because they could guarantee an attractive payout.

    I think Dan Hipsher should keep his job because:

    #10. His players play H-A-R-D for him. Never an ounce of quit.

    #9. Stellar player retention...hardly ever see a kid drop out! *cough*

    #8. Stellar academic record...*cough Sims*, *cough E Smith*, *cough Courtney Jones* *cough Preston*, *cough etc*

    #7. The way his team responds after time-outs...never a turnover or a bad shot!

    #6. Who else could get 38 minutes per game out of a guy with the mobility of Frankenstein?

    #5. 20 win seasons are overrated!

    #4. MAC Tourney wins are overrated!

    #3. Playing in a 30% full JAR provides an intimate setting for you and your date.

    #2. If he gets fired...we could lose Bryan Hipsher to Can't (transfer)!!

    And the #1 reason Dan Hipsher should keep his job...*drum roll*.....

    F-bombs, F-bombs, F-bombs! :o
