  1. I couldn't find any streamed video...I'm thrilled with the audio!
  2. http://wemu.org/listen.phpThere is a pull down menu labeled "listen now". Choose your media here and it will open with the corresponding program.The quality is beautiful on MediaPlayer with broadband.Go Zips!
  3. I couldn't agree more.If we are going to be wearing shirts with other schools' names on them, they should be given out to all freshman on the first day of class that read, !
  4. I love the idea of renaming the JAR as Outback Arena!...This is an especially cool idea if we get a new 10K seat arena.
  5. ...I love it!Nothing like some good laughs at the expense of a colleague/friend!
  6. Beautifully worded by Rasor!http://blogs.ohio.com/rasor/...couldn't have said it better myself!...in summary,
  7. We just have to keep on winning...if we have a continued presence in the polls, perhaps we'll have a shot at an at-large bid if we don't end up winning the MACC.Just something to keep in mind !
  8. Please see the link:http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/columns/stor...kyle&id=2720581Scroll down to the MAC section.
  9. I should add that history is a relative compass of progress. Those banners represent magnetic north. Without them, we don't know where we've been, where we are, and thus, where we are going. We need those banners back!
  10. I really disagree that these accomplishments (DII runner-up, etc.) aren't worthy of a banner. In building a program, it's important to know how far we've come. The banner puts into perspective the rich history of the program (and more globally, the university) and also shows us how far we yet have to go to become a major force at the national level.There is a Nation member who is currently a PhD student in history at UA (and alum of UT). I encourage him to please use this forum to explain to the Nation the importance and significance of studying history.
  11. Does anyone plan on making the trip to Pittsburgh for the Duquesne vs. Akron men's basketball game on Monday, February 26th? I'm a UA alum who also happens to be a graduate student at Pitt and I plan on attending the game. I'd love to meet up with other members of The Nation to cheer UA on to a victory.
  12. This is a dangerous game in that the UB starters compete well with the nations best as evident in their game against Pitt in which UB had the lead going into the final 5 minutes. However, as mentioned by RowdyZip, the bench isn't as deep as it needs to be to beat UA (as was also evident against Pitt).I still think we'll win, but it will be closer than the Can't game because .We should (and need to) win all games leading up to the next one against OU. One game at a time though...In retrospect, it's amazing how badly those losses to UA-LR and UIC look on our tournament resume right now.
  13. I hope he has a good career and that the men's soccer program continues to do well nationally and to recruit such talent.I never pass up a chance to say that
  14. so tell your friend to make first contact and see if JD is interested. if he's as good as you say and is interested in Akron, there is no reason JD wouldn't be.
  15. Damn!...We lead most of the game!We just can't seem to win a big game!...How frustrating!There is no doubt in my mind we have to win the MACC to go to The Dance.
  16. Would someone please post the current score and time remaining. Thank you in advance.
  17. Please keep me updated...now without the gametracker working, I have no means of receiving real time scores...I live in Pittsburgh. Thank you Nation!
  18. Look under "Next Event" and then "Coverage"...click on the "GameTracker" icon and it should load automatically.Hope this helps!I don't know if it's working though...it's now 7:10 and there's nothing on the tracker although I thought the game was supposed to start at 7:00.
  19. To those of you interested in following the game in real-time online, the gametracker can be found at:http://ohiobobcats.cstv.com/sports/m-baskb...skbl-sched.htmlThe link is on the right side of the page.Go Zips! And of course,
  20. I'm a PhD student at the University of Pittsburgh who did his undergrad and master's work at UA. I too am surprised by how much recognition UA gets in the Pittsburgh area. In all honesty, I think UA is held in higher esteem in the Pittsburgh area than in Akron. I am also delighted to say that even the people of Pittsburgh know that
  21. I think we need a stadium like those of CSU-Fresno (although larger than ours is planned), UNLV, or UNM
  22. After reviewing the conceptual design presented, I must say this looks more like a large high school stadium (a la McKinnely/Massilon). We need a horseshoe or bowl stadium! This further proves that we need to coordinate with the Wolstein group to build a joint UA/MLS stadium on our campus to maximize revenue, stadium features and capabilities (retractable roof, closed bowl, 25,000 seats and possibly expandable), and events(NCAA soccer and basketball tournament games, UA football, a bowl game if we have a retractable roof, concerts, band competitions, high school football and soccer playoff games, etc.). We must let the administration know that this conceptual design is unaccpetable and that we need to coordinate with the Wolstein group to prevent both groups from competing with one another and building otherwise inferior stadiums!If the stadium is built as proposed in this conceptual rendering, I'll be embarrased by it!At least we all still know that
