Let'sGoZips94

The time of a potential Groce departure and Joyce being ready to take over a DI program could line up. I would love to see Dru as the HC of the Zips someday.

Akron plays a difficult system, and it takes the right mix of personnel to make it work. It took Embick a couple years to get the right mixture after Caleb's departure, then we went to 3 out of the next 4 College Cups (including a National Title Game loss). We're gonna have some down years - every program in every sport does - but I fully expect Embick to have things turned around this year. Don't jump ship!

Well it was only a natural response when he revealed he was pregnant... Anybody know if it was a boy or a girl? Need to give the men's or women's program a heads up regarding the recruiting class of 2038.

Was DJ Cooper modeling something made by a Can't student?

Remember when O-Who was good, and we'd have to suffer through listening to their "O (clap clap clap clap clap clap) H (clap clap clap clap clap clap) I (clap clap clap clap clap clap) O (clap clap clap clap clap clap)" chant over and over and over again? Me too. Then their coach left and now he's ours and their entire fan base is in meltdown mode over it. It's wonderful. I'm expecting a big game from Cheese.

I don't want him to. Jimond went Kobe 80+ the game cause he HAD to due to a lack of support, and we still lost in, what, double OT? LCJ's 30+ pt performances are controlled and not forced. He's THAT good that he can take over a game without taking his teammates completely out of it.

I thought we could count on BUGS to beat Miami. The MAC is crazy.

NIU is down 8 to start the second half.

Final. Brick Campus U beats BUGS by 18. Amazing. Who has the updated seedings?!

73-55 with 1:22 left. Wow.

Season-defining win right there. Playing without your #2 scorer, you go on the road to another country and knock off the former Kings of the MAC by 13 for the first time in 7 attempts. We out-rebounded them by 12, and put up 86 on the road. Outstanding effort, composure, and grit to put that one in the WIN column. Congrats to Groce & company on securing a BYE to Cleveland in just his 3rd season at the helm. The MAC is decently deep this year, so that BYE is HUGE.

That's it. I'm getting an I ❤️ LCJ tattoo. He is incredible.

Gotta drive at Mballa and try to get him out of the game.

What a nice defensive play by Ali.

X FOUND THE OCEAN! HE HIT THE BROAD SIDE OF THE BARN!

I'm really impressed with Dawson's rebounding. Great job by the team to stay composed and keep this game close so far. I like the aggressive drives to the basket.

I'm already annoyed. Another slow start, questionable (at best) calls, these announcers suck, and a guy that is rocking a mop for a hairdoo just hit a deep 3 on us. Did Groce not warn the team about eating too much Canadian Bacon this morning?

I really hope O Canada didn't throw off our pre-game routine.

Who beat Toledo twice who beat us. The MAC is a 21 Jump Street crime investigation board with string going everywhere.

Cheese has represented Akron very well during his couple years here. One mistake in the heat of the moment in one of the biggest games of the season with a lot of frustration that didn't result in anyone getting hurt. Fair & just punishment, but not fair to start questioning who he is as a person and member of this program. As previously stated, hopefully the team plays for him, and I fully expect to see him cheering from the bench as loud as anyone in the arena.

Toughest group yet, IMO. Loved Ampai, but Scotty Caldwell delivered the biggest goal in program history.

Ummm... Put this one in the lost column and move on to the next game? We're a top 2 seed, almost guaranteed. Get to Cleveland, and we'll see what happens - just like every. other. season.

Turned it off. When bricks like that are going in for them, you know it's not your night. Not only should that not have gone in, it should have been negative points for how ugly the shot was. Good grief.
