    Our "new" beat writer wrote Trimble is "day-to-day". I therefore presume he's awaiting a negative covid test result, or perhaps an end to quarantine. Has he been practicing? If so it's the former.

    Nice second half... 54-38 Akron!

    Can this be correct? Canada ZERO offensive rebounds in the 2nd half? Wow!

    Cant remember anyone other than Joe Jakubick taking 20 free throws in a game. Ali x2 16/20.

    Happy New ZipYear!!

    Payout for CMU and the MAC jumped from 350k to 4.5 mil during the Chipps' bus ride from Tucson to El Paso! Not sure, but that must compete with past MAC New Years Day bowl game checks! Sun Bowl has always been my favorite scenic bowl game with that historic rock "M" (for UTEP Miners) on the slope outside the stadium. It does seem rather ironic that Miami had to drop out with Covid, when Wazzou had the only head coach to be fired during the season for refusing to be vaccinated -- my old beer and pizza guzzling partner from his Hawai'i QB days, Nick Rolovich.

    Ends up Point Park's Sherron Schifino has a cousin, Jalen Hood-Schifino who's a 4 or 5-star (ranked #20 on Rivals Top 100), and signed with Indiana after decommitting from hometown Pittsburgh. Coach Groce shoulda put in a call to Uncle Jake for a recommendation! https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/Pitt/2020/07/27/Pitt-basketball-Jalen-Hood-Schifino-decommits-Montverde-Academy-Jeff-Capel-William-Jeffress/stories/202007270104

    Fascinating no one mentioned one of the more ironic facts of the game: The Anteaters' coach, Russell Turner came closer than anyone to being full-time coach of the D-1 school in Akron. Multiple reports stated he was offered and turned down the Akron job before it was offered to John Groce. He's one of the top young coaches on the West coast and his team was coming off having led #10 USC by double digits before finally losing by 5. They own wins over excellent teams Santa Clara and Boise State, so I must say: Nice win Duqies!!

    Here is what I remember about Radford U. men's basketball: In his final career game in March of 1993, Akron's Mark Alberts finished as the NCAA's career leader in 3-point field goals. It was either later the same evening or the next night that Radford's Doug Day passed Alberts and moved into first place in the career 3-pointers list. I believe it was also the final game of Day's college career, so he must have celebrated, while Mark fell back into his chair after his brief time on top of the 3-point mountain. What's Mark Alberts doing these days?

    This is the team that drew Brimfield AM&T School of Fashion Design in the Tater Tots Bowl. They whooped up on NIU and Jar St. on the road early on, went 4-0 non-con to manage 6-6 overall, 2-4 with defeats to New Mex and Hawai'i in the mediocre MWC. Enjoy the stay in Laramie, the Las Vegas of Central Wyoming.

    Thought Alabama A&M won one. HBCU. 😯

    Nice all-around! He'll have a chance to prove himself before the biggest media and opponents. Good luck with @UCFKnights.

    I think you're both right! 😁 @BallCoachJoeMo = Win-Win!

    🤔 Already looking ahead to a trip East on 9/11/27. BTW, whatever came of the NMSU deal??
  15. Z.I.P.
    Many people think UTRGV could be the UTSA of basketball. (Don't ask for names). 😐

    Coach JoeMo working early! Good size JC DE from MS.

    Martin Sr season: 90 receptions, 19 TDs, 1432 yards. Looks like his only offer so far is Ashland.

    On Tuesday December 21st in Boise, the two teams with the ugliest uniforms in CFB meet on the ugliest field in CFB. WYO vs Suffield Tech in the Infamous Potato Bowl. 🥔 🤢

    Well...Proenza put the university on the upward track academically and physical plant-wise, and began the process of upgrading athletics. Let's hope Miller can complete the deal -- and somehow we can re-establish all our de(p)leted academic programs!

    Someone ask @Zipmeisterabout #WalkOns... 😗

    I don't have the energy at 3 a.m. EST (10:30 in the islands 😉) to search for it, but after the Arth firing one of the first posts on this or another thread mentioned coach Moorhead's name and stated (IIRC) that he wouldn't be available due to his health condition. I know nothing about this story. Could anyone with info please comment or post an article on this thread? Mahalo nui loa! And the Zip in Paradise won't be buying season tickets but hopefully the marketing dept can actually come up with gear for fans in Hawai'i nei.
