This team really misses Walton as only X can create for himself. Yes Ali forces some shots but what else do they have? I know it's not Groce's style but they need to run their sets through Freeman. Especially with the second unit. That or really look to push the ball on misses and turnovers. Losing Walton and the disappearance or Clarke is killing this team.

Well damn you're right. That posted still trigger the memory so I stand by my statement haha. That being said I loved watching Roberts play and the Castaneda comps are spot on. Just need a bit more consistent guard play out of this team and they can be dangerous.

Still too soon! Haha

Jackson was a Center not a LB. Went to Illinois but I'm not sure if he played.

I'm not sure on the logistics either but I do know that schools do this all the time. This would be a fantastic hire.

Thinking out loud. If a guy like Morehead is the pick is a portion of his salary getting subsidized by donations or did something drastic change at the university?

A 5 second Google search and we have our answer. https://wvmetronews.com/2021/01/11/doc-holliday-uncertain-why-he-was-let-go-or-what-the-future-holds/

Well if that isn't the most "Akron" thing you'll ever read. SMH

It was Kelly-Powell that took the bad angle.

Thoughts on Doc Holliday?

I thought he was in protocol? I expect a big blow on D too. Haven't confirmed it so I don't want to say the name just yet. Sorry to be so cryptic.

Well said coach Lasso

That's fair. I think he sticks as a solid pass first backup point. He definitely has the body type teams are looking for. I guess we'll have to wait to see how it all plays out.

Most mocks have him early 2nd. Some writer's are saying possible late 1st after his combine performance. Good for him and good for the MAC

Ludwig also makes the team as an alternate.

Clayton Murphy and Matt Ludwig both try to secure a spot in the Olympics tonight! The pole vault is on MSNBC and the 800 is on NBC. Rize Up!

Got an email that a new AD will be announced today at 11.

Damn this dude is ass grown man. His game kinda reminds me of Cheese. Both are big and strong and could finish at the hoop with either hand.

The "Zips Affordability" scholarship will cover tuition and the university's "general fee" for new students eligible for federal Pell Grants, according to information recently released by UA. It kicks in after other financial aid awards are applied.

Just saw Cincy has six players in the transfer portal. This is gonna be a wild off-season. I have faith Groce can improve this squad.

This team goes as Trimble Jr goes. Plain and simple. Hope we have another shooter and shot creator coming next year as this team has been a bit unbalanced all year.

It has a new name if you have it set on your recorder. It's now Zips Weekly and that's the title for both basketball and football.

If that is the case (Can totally see that happen btw) I getting Matt Kauling on the phone and getting his input. Perhaps he can have some influence on the pick and would be willing to pay a portion of the new coaches salary. Happens all the time in college sports and quite frankly I'd be happy with him in the room versus the Van Horn's of the world.

The team just doesn't have enough shooter's. Dailey, Wynn, Ali, and Tribble are all below average outside shooters. Trimble is very streaky. Teams are starting to pack the paint and dare Akron to shoot 3s. I hope more game reps will help some but I think this team has a fatal flaw. Would like to see a little more Clarke and more 1-3-1 to speed up the game. They have athlete's and need to figure out how to best use them.

Not enough outside shooting on this team. Groce is really trying to find some rotations that play well together. Would like to see more Clarke.
