    I've been trying to think how this might effect Akron soccer recruiting. In terms of Big East geography we pretty much own Ohio. It could effect -- in a positive way -- our ability to recruit the territory of the West Division of the conference. But given that logic, maybe other BE schools look at recruiting our backyard. Time will tell.

    I would point out that my hombre, X-Cast had his poorest performance so far, hitting just 2 of 10 from the floor (2/8 outside the arc). However he made just 2 turnovers in 36 minutes and hit 10 free throws in 13 tries. He's this team's anchor. Thank heavens Groce got him outta Tampa.

    Thanks for finding and posting this TennZip. I had to look up the map for Roldan's billboard in Pico -- the Whittier area of E. L.A. Ends up it's under a mile from my aunt and uncle's house in Santa Fe Springs. Some great football and Mexican food in that hood!

    Most of these were placed in the player's hometown. Wonder where DeAndre's was. 🤔

    Sammy Hunter had back-to-back assists there as Akron retook the lead. What I like about Hinter is his court vision and his ability to read the play and defense. What I DON'T like about Sammy? Constant clanging of three-point shots he should never be taking. Anyone see that differently?

    FYI, Nate Johnson and Kobe Mitchell are still listed on the roster at GoZips.com as sophomores. FWIW.

    Reputation carries weight with the committee. What was WMU's RPI? After their final two games they have to be furious to not get a seed and home match! And glad they won't be in Akron's league (literally that is) next season!

    Will be disappointed if we don't get one home game, like last year. Better be prepared for another Santa Clara-type team.

    Faith was a complete player in HS. She has heft and rebounding ability, and can step outside and knock down the 'j'. A surprisingly athletic 6-3 with inside moves and instincts. She'll be all-MAC W/in 3 years.

    https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/boxscore/_/gameId/401485974 Didn't see this one, for obvious reasons! Anyone can comment on the bench and roster? Is anyone missing besides Corcoran? Faith Stinson had 6 today -- any comments on her talents? I hope she gets to play, as she's a big time player.

    But wouldn't it have received criticism for redundancy?? I mean SERIOUSLY...the EMU emus??? 🤯

    I admit my embarrassment! 😵 Seems I was the first to report on him with the first post in this thread "MIP in the Windy City". Double Doh!!
  17. Z.I.P.
    Is this the first we've heard about Darrion Baker? It's nice to see Groce mining the rich vein of talent in the Windy City.

    From your mouth to the B1G gods ears! 😅 (and GoZips') 😉

    MSU's big man Tolu Smith played a year of HS here in Hawai'i. Has family in the islands. He's a very athletic post. It'll be fun to see how he and Freeman match up against each other. There should be NBA scouts present, as both those guys have gotta be on the radar. https://www.hawaiiprepworld.com/boys-basketball/life-after-kahuku-tolu-smith-thriving-at-mississippi-state/

    Let me know when the Pat Mayfield NIL line is available! Or does some of Rique's $$ trickle down to his teammates?

    The point is, the MAC CAN stop Akron from moving to another league for soccer only (so long as the conference continues to sponsor men's soccer). It sounds like you're talking about another conversation...the #HittingaDeadHorse thread of Akron leaving the conference altogether. That's a fair discussion, but a different one... 😉
  22. Z.I.P.
    That sounds very nice, but so long as the MAC maintains an NCAA tournament slot -- and they just need to find one more member to maintain that -- the MAC is not just going to sit back and allow their prize cow to run away. I'm guessing the conference would have the final say. But that said...I wonder what the rest of the MAC soccer-playing schools are up to... 🤔

    Okay...NOT last year, but I saw it and went... "Aha!" Glad to see Taylor excelling, even if I don't know where Harding U. is. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/game/_/gameId/401489542

    I was driving home from work, celebrating Akron's 72-70 victory when I looked at the phone and it shows...OVERTIME!!! WTF. 🤯 Thank you Greg Tribble for winning the game...AGAIN!! 😄
  25. Z.I.P.
    Can someone just explain to me what happened at the end of regulation? Because ESPN still shows Akron 72 SDSU 70 after 2nd half! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️😵
