  1. Let's just say while coaching the Zips he learned the difference between electing to defer versus electing to kick off when winning the coin toss.
  2. Who are we going to get to replace KD? Let's hear the names...
  3. We should probably be glad the article was not titled "20 College football programs that should suffer the same fate as UAB"
  4. I'd love to see a Panera near campus...nice place to drink coffee and study.
  5. Chris Mullin offered by St. John's. http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/eye-on-college-basketball/25128090/chris-mullin-offered-st-johns-job-expected-to-accept
  6. He looked up Can't State but apparently he didn't look up Firestone Tire.
  7. It nearly did happen, but for a clutch 3 pointer by WVU at the end of the 1st round game. UB probably would have beaten Maryland too with their loss of a key player and 23 turnovers.
  8. 5 wins max if Pratt is a 1st string.
  9. But had we won, would we have lost?
  10. Interesting bit about UMass growth/spending/debt http://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2015/03/21/after-building-boom-umass-sizes-debt/rnbYFtGVZsp11mZn9buJAM/story.html
  11. I saw BH got some extended face time on CBS hoops coverage this evening. I was doing something else so I didn't hear what all they were talking about.
  12. Sadly, #TeamOhio lost in the second round of the tournament.
  13. K-State showed up ready to play. They are athletic and good. Zips didn't shoot well enough to stay in it. Still, a good effort and a good season.
  14. That's it, thanks...I'm getting my former QB candidates mixed up.
  15. It reminds me of the period after Jeff Sweitzer when we were trying to find the next QB from the likes of Nick Sparks, Mike Junko, etc. before Butchie Washington emerged.
  16. Bob Huggins nearly sucks in the NCAA tournament. In 15 appearances, he has 1 final four, 2 elite eights, and 12 early exits. It's a great draw for UB.
  17. New uniforms coming for the band, per facebook: In case you haven't heard, there are some VERY exciting things on the horizon for The 2015 edition of "Ohio's Pride." #1 - All members of the UAMB will now receive a $1,000 stipend each year they are in Ohio's Pride. #2 - Thanks to the support of the UA Administration, "Ohio's Pride" will be replacing our 18 year old uniforms in time for our first football game of 2015. #3 - The UAMB will be hosting our annual Spirit Night for current and prospective members on Monday, April 13th at 7:00pm on the 5th floor of InfoCision Stadium where we will unveil the new uniforms and details for the coming season. We hope you share this exciting news and join us for Spirit Night on April 13th! Go Zips!!!
  18. How fast is Woodson? Anyone here know his 40 yard dash time?
  19. Congrats. Every NE Ohio news outlet has repeated your news bit and now the AP has picked it up. http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/local/2015/03/17/university-of-akron-ponders-a-renaming.html
  20. 23-10 the past 2 seasons. 22-8 currently.
  21. Come on, Balsy, wake up! What are you hung over from Pi Day or something??
  22. Doesn't a thorough national AD search/vetting/interviewing/hiring process take about 6 months? And is not done secretly? If his contract is up this September we should be hearing something (one way or the other) soon, I would think. Unless they would appoint an interim AD while the search is ongoing. My guess would be he gets extended due to the short-leash conundrum...if an Akron is too quick to terminate someone, it discourages other potentially qualified candidates from applying. Then again, it's been what, 6 years? With the program being relatively stable/successful, perhaps he is being evaluated primarily on his progress on fundraising.
  23. Maybe a nearby one in upstate New York.
