Now I know where they got the idea to install view-blocking light posts at the Rubber Bowl.

Can we agree he’s a really good Group of 27 transfer? -

So Colorado (PAC-12) is a "P5" team in hoops, and Gonzaga isn't? -
To me, Dre Williams was the only impactful loss. Alce average 1.6 tackles per game at Dodge City CC this year. White was slow afoot, and had ball security issues. I'll believe Hanson is at Iowa State when I see it.

NIU up 6 late in the game, and Pitt closes it out with a 15-0 run. -

If Duquesne were in the same conference as Hostess, come tourney time Hostess would be hoping for an at-large bid. -

I have followed Dayton and the A10 for quite a while and have never heard anybody refer to the A10 as a P5 conference. Is the A10 a (very) high mid major - yes, a consistent multiple bid conference - yep. Is the atmosphere at Dayton games P5 caliber - you bet, but several of the schools in the A10 play in facilities that resemble a small high school gym. Do you have a source for your P5 claim? FWIW - I didn't state the A-10 is a P5 conference in basketball, I said Dayton is a "P5" team in hoops. Source - They're ranked #14 in the most recent poll. -

Xeyrius is the best P5 UA transfer (Dayton is a "P5" in hoops) since Jamie Bosley. -

Duquesne is 7-2, and beat Pitt by 19. So they aren't chopped liver. -
Game 9- Southern University @ 2pm Sunday Dec 8th
Captain Kangaroo replied to clarkwgriswold's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Speaking from my perch amongst the unwashed masses of the GA and upper reserved section, it's good to see the T-shirt cannon "stick it to da man" and knock a few dentures our every once in a while! -
Game 9- Southern University @ 2pm Sunday Dec 8th
Captain Kangaroo replied to clarkwgriswold's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
I would think the next 2 Sundays should be games where the PA announcer says "Everyone from the GA section, come on down and sit with the Blue Hairs." It'll be the only time GA fans will have a chance to catch a free t-shirt. -

Frenchy Fries at 40! Xerius on a roll! Great first half for the Zips.

I don't read it that way. When I interviewed Trevor Brown earlier this year I asked him about his absence from the pre-season all-MAC teams. He said, "With team success, the individual recognition will come." We had no team success, so some of our better players got overlooked. Lako had a noteworthy season. But Davis was guilty by association with a secondary full of true freshman and 1st year starters. If I were drafting for an NFL team, and only picking the best available player, I'd take Davis over Lako. Trevor had a similar situation as Davis. An argument could also be made for Jest's inclusion. He had an outstanding 2019 at the nose. Unfortunately, he wasn't flanked buy anyone who could put pressure on the QB.

If you consider we were out gained 603 yards to 74 yards overall, the passing numbers aren’t so bad? Holy Moley... -
