  1. Would be very interested in finding out which other conferences are planning to compete in the spring, after the Big West preemptively canceled all their fall sports for the year. How about women's soccer? And will any other sports revert to spring (e.g., volleyball)?
  2. Can anyone comment on how Toledo has had such a change in their level of play this season? Weren't they the pre-season pick to win the league last year, along with BG but fell flat and ended like 11th in conference play? Marreon Jackson may be the second best player in the league, not to leave out Preston but MJ seems to be a more complete player.
  3. Has Frenchie moved to Maui yet? ??
  4. Twenty-one point run...and trailing at the half. ? But looking at how Toledo made like 7 of 12 threes and had only 2 turnovers...I like the Zips' chances in the 2nd period! Keep it up LCJ! May need another 20.
  5. Bubbas always wanna leave Akron. Why is that? ?‍♂️
  6. Jalen King... Wasn't he one of Michigan's Fab Five? ☺️
  7. I saw Michael Nuga play several times for Portland State, another of my alma maters. He didn't seem like anything more than a good Big Sky conference guard. They had another guard there who's a grad Xfer at Ariz. State now and was better than Nuga. Anyone remember when Zips played Viks in Alaska? Sad day (for Akron)! Forget if it was Dambrot or Hipsher team. KD, I believe...
  8. Can't State wears MAGA hats!! Beat Flascism!! ? ??
  9. I started to ask how many games he can play and keep his red shirt. Then it struck me -- everyone gets a year back after this one -- right? ?‍♂️
  10. We could score 90, but I think team defense, well along with remarkable 3-point shooting is responsible for the victory. So, imagine how good St Bonaventure must be! ?
  11. Make it 6 for 6. 22 pts leads LCJ by one! We prevented the Kitten run, and gonna win dis one!
  12. Maishe for THREE!! Someone help me out. Is it pronounced MY- she?? Where do you get a name like that? Is it available in stores?
  13. Preston getting national pub. 2 ppg as a HS senior. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1251471#csi=0&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From %1%24s
  14. A 19 win team (5th in Atlantic-10, IIRC) that returns 5 starters is a legitimate contender to win the now middle-of-the-pack A-10. They're not Dayton 2020-21, but neither is anyone else in the league. I've seen more than one expert favor them to win it. 2 or 3 years after beating UCLA in the Big Dance. I guess your money's on the Dukes though... ?‍♂️?
  15. Big West Conference made the decision last weekend to suspend all fall sports, including men's and women's soccer until fall of 2021. Anyone seen status of MAC and other conferences?
  16. We actually outrebounded SB 33-29. Jermaine Marshall? Where'd HE come from (Oh, yeah, Birmingham!). He was VERY impressive -- will be an impact 4 -- hopefully in combo with Currie. I'm not down on this team after two games. I anticipate St Bonnie being a top 20-25 team by the end of the season. We hung in there -- generally speaking...
  17. Despite getting only half as many free throw attempts (13 vs 26), Zips connected on 13 of 25 three-pointers, to just 6 of 21 for the Flyers. Great 3-0 start to the season. Next match is @UBuffalo, one of the preseason MAC favorites. They'll be looking for revenge for our victory at their place last season. https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/boxscore?gameId=401266880
  18. Do they even HAVE zoom in Mali?? ?‍♂️
  19. For scheduling issues, follow this guy's Twitter. @RoccoMiller8 He's talking about MTE -- Multi-team events. High majors are host-scheduling 4 team events with regional, mainly mid-major opponents.
  20. Very Zip-centric article from the San Fran Chronicle here with stories from his Akron teammates. Apparently he was an early-day Rec Center Wonder of the hoops. "A second-team All-Mid-American Conference closer, he was drafted in the 16th round in 2011 by the White Sox and debuted three years later as the fourth Zips player to reach the majors. He also flashed his athleticism on the rec basketball court, where, Romick confirmed: “He can throw down.” " https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sfchronicle.com/athletics/amp/A-s-Chris-Bassitt-fueled-by-energy-drinks-15620507.php
  21. Can anyone who's following it closely tell us which conferences are playing men's soccer this fall -- and which are waiting for Spring? I am presuming BTW, that all those whose men are playing this season also have women playing now. Correct? Also, could this be a preview of the yet-to-be-formalized two-season format? Is the NCAA planning a championship tournament anytime?
  22. The dirty little secret of CFB (one of them at least...): There is a FBS maximum of 85 scholarships per school. There is NO MINIMUM!
  23. LePear Toles in uniform again. Really??
  24. I think it's important to show that Ira Yedlin is no stranger to police violence. He knows of what he speaks -- and he's an elderly white Jewish chap. This tells the source of his fear for DeAndre. https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/phoenix/2017/08/27/protester-my-injuries-show-how-police-fell-short-trump-phoenix-rally/599476001/
  25. They must be traveling clockwise (West-East) around the globe, because I got mine in Hawai'i a week ago! lol.
