  1. You can use my name. I have nothing to hide. Lol. Except my shame after my bracket is busted after Round 1. Lol
  2. Yep. This style is not typical of Groce. He's adapted his style to suit his team on the floor. Great coaching; not trying to pound a square peg through a round hole. Impressive that he's been so adept at coaching the half-court game when most of his teams seem to typically run & gun.
  3. Nice article by GT. Focusses on the roster and COVID turmoils of the season. Groce & Co. have given a coaching masterclass this season.
  4. It doesn't. It has never felt like we're just milking clock (except, of course, at the end of the KSUcks game when we actually were intentionally milking clock). We do a great job of working the ball around for a good shot & making the D maintain intensity for the entire 35 seconds. That can be both exhausting and demoralizing for a defense. Not to create a rabbit trail (I was going to wait until our season is finished to bring this up) but I do hope that next year, after adding two-to-four guards, I hope we run out and attempt the fast break when we get a rebound to try and get an easy shot before the defense sets up and to use our depth to our advantage. If there's no easy shot to be had on the fast break, we can always pull the ball out and set up our more methodical half-court offense. I certainly love winning... but I'd prefer to not become known for a "slow" offense.
  5. That means we'll see our new primary logo between now and then 💪💪 I was at the Info yesterday looking through the gates & the old turf has definitely seen better days. Anymore it's barely even green 😂
  6. Yeah, I wouldn't expect a huge crowd when you can watch the 9:50 game on your couch in your pajamas. Is anyone planning on going. If I go (I'm fighting off a bit of a cold) I'm going to be flying solo.
  7. It is. X has really come into his own and is playing at an exceptionally high level. It looks like next year Clarke, Tavari, Kobe, and Nate can battle it out for backup PG.
  8. I like the location. It's on Massillon Road in Green, about a mile south of the 77S off ramp. It's right across from the Akron General Wellness Center where I work out.
  9. 💯 Already looking forward to it!
  10. Wouldn't it be something if the Akron Beacon Journal paid this much attention to their hometown NCAA D-1 school whether or not they made the NCAA Tourney? 🧐
  11. Outstanding article on 'Rique
  12. Fanatics are notoriously bipolar 😂
  13. I definitely want to be in the top 3 next year. The 4-5 MAC Tourney quarterfinal round is a tough road. Though it did make it fun running the Buffalo-Toledo-KSUcks gauntlet.
  14. I'm answering my own question. Yeah, we're all even now. That does mean, however, there won't be any additions through the TP this off season.
  15. Losing Walton & Trimble, but gaining Prather Jr., & Tavari Johnson, we're now on spot with our scholarship limit next season, correct? P.s. I'm renigging on my Michael-Wynn-to-the-Transfer-Portal prediction. 🙂
  16. Can't stand Senderoff? I wasn't aware of that dynamic.
