NPR story here.

I believe there are some who are still are upset about the Indians AA club moving to Akron.

Lee, I am in the area for a while and would live to take my young daughter to ride the train...she loves trains. Can you give me more info on where to catch the train and when it is operational?? Thanks :-) Here it is: Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad

That can't be... we don't compete against them for recruits.

On the plus side, I'm sure that means the athletics budget has a bit more $ to play with. Hopefully they can get more from all of their sponsors since they are the reigning national champs.

I thought Summa already owned the old Country Diner. If they have the Pizza Hut property also, maybe they already have plans. Summa has deeper pockets than UA right now. EDIT: I checked the tax maps and Summa does indeed own those properties.

Only Youngstown is like Detroit. Maybe East Cleveland too... but anyway, back on topic, does anyone think it would be beneficial to change the upper side bleachers (or just a section or two) to chairbacks and make them reserved like the other side? It would seem to be less expensive to do, might cut down on capacity but if more people attend and you can charge more for those seats, maybe it pays back quickly.

I like both Nik and Dakota. We need a TRUE big man to backup Zeke. Someone that is bigger than 6'8" to complete at a higher level. Hopefully we can get a JUCO that is 6'10" or 6'11" as a legit backup at center if either one of them leaves or transfers. How was that local recruit looking... the one from the Cleveland area that was about that size (6'-10"?)? I think Can't was recruiting him also. He may only have been a junior this year, I can't recall.

In the playing position based solely on who I've seen, Egner. As a team "cheerleader", leader, and fan fav, not sure. Nitro seems too quiet for that. Rico might be if he can keep control.

Sure looks like Nik to me.

Patented scoring drought.

Hopefully he works on his free throws throughout his high school career. 55% as a freshman.

Only if they win.

Welcome!/Bienvenue! There's been lots of discussion on this topic over the past few years. There were renderings of a joint city/university arena, but with the economic downturn, it's surely on a back burner. Try a search (top right corner) and you'll come up with several threads.

If it's typical, they'll ignore us completely.

Bardo with a 10-footer... this one's in the bag!

I don't know if it's all on KD. We've had some success in the post season. Is it more that we are losing better recruits due to facilties? Or losing good assistants that help overcome KD's weaknesses because we can't pay them enough? I'm inclined to think upgrading facilities brings in more cash due to better fan atmosphere (and possibly better corporate support) as well as helping with recruiting.

Nice game by Bardo too. The move on Mavunga was awesome!

Here's hoping he gets the season record this weekend!
