Keeping up with the Three D's (Dambrot, Dru & Duquesne)
Z.I.P. replied to dirtyolcrowe's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Noah DID transfer. But I think he was a graduate transfer at New Mexico after Keith left. -

Ummm, Noah was recruited from Bishop Gorman HS in Vegas. The coaches camped out at a casino after they lost out on another PG at the last second. Noah was one of the top unsigned PGs. He had earlier verballed to a high major, IIRC. -
Yep, there're plenty of those types around the MAC. Bowling Green especially is building a program around them. Next season Faith Stinson arrives at the JAR from Sheridan HS in Thornville. 6'1, 175+ with D1 power moves inside for a big. She should see PT in 22-23. And her sister, Jamisyn, a soph was offerred two weeks ago after scoring 28 in the game vs the state's top team, Purcell Marian and Dee Alexander, the top-rated frosh in the nation.

Well...two statistics sure stick out! 🤯 Rebounds 49-28 UT! Turnovers Toledo 13, Akron 2. Said 1 right after the game. School record? Wasted in any case..
-
Yeah. It's not a "rule". It was just a poor job by the officials. They could have looked at it immediately. Almost certain of that. Although I didn't see it... 😏

Now Akron wahine team has gotta deliver the Double KO to UT on Saturday!
-
Hold on! TV I THOUGHT showed the tech on the Miami post player for bending over before Freeman fell over him -- was it on the COACH??? And X-Cast took just one FT, right? 🤔🤷♂️
-
Freeman carried the team, but...game ball to the bench!
-
Honestly. That was an AWFUL tech call on Miami. He just leaned over...!

Halftime action: managers repairing the net ...with bobby-pins! 🙄

Alix2 2 pts on 2 shots first 20. Hate how he disappears! Make sure he reads this!!
-
How long was Bandie in the restricted area with no help defense??
-
That was a 13-2 Akron run before Miami's last bucket.

Hey, hey, hey. Is it luau night at the JAR?? Or are the Boogaloo Bois in town? If the former I'll have a mai tai. BARTENDER!!!

Thanks TennZip and Zip_ME87 for sharing this absolutely amazing S.I. story from Istanbul and across D.A.'s career so far. I was quite surprised that he left for Turkey from Newcastle. Knowing the Yedlins' social and political activism, it was rather incredible that DeAndre would take up residence in a nation led by a religio-fascistic cult of an autocratic leader like Erdogun. If he wanted that, he could have signed with FC Dallas! 😬 So, so happy for the birth of DeAndre's girl Seneca -- no mention of it also being the name of the largest tribe of the Six Nations of the Iriquois Confederacy, and DeAndre being 1/4 Native American. That's the first info I've seen about his wife -- I wonder if she's Cuban-American or Puertoriquena or what (Rodriguez). He had his fling with his McGyver girl, now time to settle down and make a family! Frankly, I'm wondering how long D.A. keeps up the football game, as he has so many other talents -- maybe Becks can help get him a music contract, as his rapping is pro-style! Can't wait to see the new Roselle line. And, BTW, did you know the Fox primetime show Wayward Pines had a character named after his mom -- Rebecca Yedlin! 😯

That will be corrected next season. But to rebut 72 Roo, if coach Jackson is so delinquent in coaching her team she wouldn't be one of the favorites for MAC COY. The team was predicted 12th and is still in fourth after falling behind Buffalo and WMU in the standings. The season lies in the balance heading into the biggest game of the season on Saturday vs #1 UT. Beat the Rockettes and we have a good chance of a top-4 finish. The MAC being what it is, I think the Zips' chances are excellent, though they'll be underdogs -- that's the place the team seems to prefer. #GoZips!

NLI National Letter of Intent (Late) Day 2022

Nickname: "Bad To The" -
Yes, Akron Zips are 6-3 in MAC play! Predicted to finish LAST in the league, Zips are tied with pre-season favorites Buffalo for second place. Wednesday opponent WMU and Ohio are 1/2 game behind at 5-3. Western lost Monday night 61-47 at home to Northern Illinois - a bad loss, but just another night of MACtion. This Saturday we face league-leading Toledo at the JAR after starting league play on New Years with a 64-58 loss to the Rockettes at Savage Hall, the closest home game for UT until last week's 79-72 loss to OU. I really hope our new AD realizes this is the biggest back-to-back games for our WBB Zips since their MAC title year of 2014. Got to at least get the student bodies out to cheer on this break-through season for coach Jackson's Roo squad. #GoZipsWBB.

Yes. I can confirm the Sweater Krew have reservations at GL's Motel in Green. And I should know since I was a classmate of Gary Lee Six, former Zips' offensive lineman after whom the place is named! 🤣

"There will be no re-entry per half". 😯 👏

Yes, EMU is a team we should have beaten double digits, but this is #MACtion. Two BIG upsets at and near the top of the league tonight as Ohio gave Toledo their first conference loss on the Kitties Court and Ball went to Canada and delivered a knockout punch to the pre-season favorite Bulls (the heifers?) who've suddenly lost three straight. Okay, who noticed? More than half of Eastern's shots were taken by one player. She scored 32, but took 34 FG attempts and made only 13. Shades of former Zip John Britton (sp?). Also note, there is just one MAC team undefeated at home this season, 5-0 Akron. We HAVE to keep that up, especially when the Rockettes come to town. CORRECTION: Ohio outscored Toledo 28-12 in the 4th Qtr IN TOLEDO to shock the Rockettes! Whoa! 😲

247 Sports is predicting...💯 that he commits to Akron.

Aside: Radford game from Dec 27. Will this game be made up? Schedule shows "postponed" and other sites show it added in February.

I'm curious. What became of "Big Cat", the Keith Dambrot recruit who xferred from Duquesne to BeeGee? Don't see his name in box score, though I forget what it was... 😆
