  1. Halftime. Akron 27. Toledo 27. Go figga this team!
  2. Uzodinma Utomi now. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Utomi
  3. Understatement of the Season Award leader (by the length of a large marsupial tail)... is the Captain! πŸ†
  4. Brandon Mantu scores 6 in 22 seconds. He's the "Sudden Sam" Smith of Kalamazoo. UNLV throwback for those of a certain age. πŸ˜‰
  5. If the Zips manage to win a game in the NCAA tournament this year, I predict Bowen Hardman will play a big role with getting open outside the circle and knocking out the opponent. BTW, one of my favorite plays in bb is the drop-back pass, such as the one Seth Wilson took for the open 3-ball. It's practically impossible to block or defend.
  6. WRONG THREAD! Get it together or else! Or else... πŸ€”πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
  7. 4pm HST. Almost "after-work"! Yay! 🍸
  8. MAC has changed the schedule, moving the home game vs PCCC to a Friday -- despite it still being broadcast only on ESPN+. What's up with that?
  9. 24 assists on 28 field goals. Not bad, eh?
  10. Nice run by Akron to take it from 6 point to 14 pt lead. Pretty much in the pocket. Tavari's made 6 of 11 treys, while Nate is not shooting much, but NINE assists. Hope the ankle is better.
  11. 60-36 final score. 😬 I know they're obviously personnel limited but... 4 assists, 22 turnovers. Sheesh!
  12. I missed the entire game (why are they playing weekday games in mid-afternoon???) πŸ˜† BUT from stats only: BSU may have been the first team (at least in MAC play) that could go nearly as deep on the bench as the Zips. Their bench made 8 of 8 FG attempts. My freshman flunker math tells me that's virtually one-hundred percent!
  13. The Baloncesto season runs from April through August. So perhaps he could play a partial season. More important may be any impetus it provides to Rique's international career for the Equipo Nacional BoriqueΓ±o.
  14. The Great Society! 🀩
  15. Go Zips! Hoping for combined 20/20 performance from Shamu and Scooby-Doo.
  16. I hear the MAC's gonna let 'em stay! But that's just a rumor! πŸ˜‰
  17. I just asked Meta AI how to pronounce Shammah's name and got this!: "Shammah is a Hebrew word and it's pronunciation is: "Sham-MAH" "Sham" sounds like sham in "SHAM-poo. "MAH sounds like "Mah" in "Ma" (like a casual way of saying "Mom"). Put together, it's a beautiful and meaningful word that refers to a biblical concept of remaining steadfast and faithful, especially in the face of adversity." So, now you know! Will someone tell ESPN+?
  18. I could swear the announcer called Shammah Scott " Shamu"! 😬 πŸ˜‚
  19. Two techs per the stats. Groce get the second?
  20. Lyles two free throws makes him the sixth Zip in double figures.
  21. Let's see if Travis shows up post-game wearing a big 'A'! πŸ˜‚
  22. Chalupas!!!
  23. I notice she's a product of Lyons Township HS, along with Zips hooper Tavari Johnson.
  24. Four new additions to coach Simonetti's incoming recruiting class available for Spring soccer. Especially excited about Taylor Allen, transfer from West Virginia who prepped at IMG Academy and was a top-150 national HS player and looks to be a scorer from the #10 spot (attacking mid). Scoring is a need for this team... https://gozips.com/news/2025/1/24/akron-womens-soccer-adds-quartet-for-2025-spring-campaign-A?fbclid=IwY2xjawIAsE1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHQV6vYqtXckHGpiJIeuJDyfDda9l8HCEB1dbTKLWDuCCdxdd9KNslBgmYQ_aem_LDQos2TpnbchkM6cvsmEIg
  25. Lovely product placement! How much is JG's NIL contract with Dr. Pepper? πŸ€”
