Blue & Gold

I don’t blame Mumpfield, Gibson & Mathison for transferring this year. They were recruited by Arth & were very close to Arth & frankly, may secretly hope Moorhead crashes & burns. Idk. We are losing 3 good ones in those guys, no doubt, but let’s wait & see if we lose any/many top players once Moorhead brings his own players in. I still think we’ll end up getting more good players filtering “down” to us than we’ll lose. But we’ll see.

All except for KSUcks.

To clarify what I meant, I got goosebumps because II still think Akron is a sleeping giant. 😅

Definitely! Im at EJ Thomas for The Akron Nutcracker. (It’s intermission.) They worked Zippy into the show. Zippy killed the Mouse King! Lol. It got a HUGE applause from this sold out crowd so it gave me goosebumps! 😂😂

This is true. Following the coaches on twitter it was eye-opening how every time a coach tweeted something, they'd get 5-10 replies from players saying, "Hey coach, check out my film," with their hudl link, etc. It was kind of sad. It made me glad I'm not a coach, it'd break my heart if I had to tell 3,000 kids, "Thank you, but no thank you." (Which they didn't, they just didn't respond.) And @John Wardthat's also partly the player's high school coache's job. If the coach truly thinks the kid can play he should contact the college coach. But the coach can't be blowing smoke at the college coach or they'll lose credibility for future player recommendations.

That's King Xerxes revisionist history.

As was I

I guess if this has to happen this is the best time it could as due to Christmas break I think we'll only miss one game.

i hope none of our guys have serious symptoms. Priorities. Get healthy, fellas! On a side note, this is going to hurt as we were really starting to play well. We're going to go into conference play rusty. But, ... priorities. Get healthy guys.

For sure. I enjoy doing it. I'll get on it asap 💪

I'm just gonna drop this here. This is cool. (I am getting OLD!!)

For all you Terry Pluto fans (Believe it or not, this is actually a really nice article.)

@Illini Zip Thank you for keeping this chart updated. As an aside, Groce isn’t utilizing Kalle enough to justify burning his redshirt, IMHO.

Yes. Clarke had a pretty nice game and X really brought his A game tonight!

We didn't let Wright State go on a run all night! Love it!

He is pretty lackadaisical on D. Groce got no time for that.

Groce just said Tribble was out w/ “illness.” And he just said “impactful.” 💪💪😂

Ali on postgame interview. He’s extremely well spoken.

We looked good.

X!

Ali dribbling exhibition. That was the worst possession of the night.

That’s right. I had forgotten about Patton.
