Blue & Gold

That's crazy talk

Those two graphs make it appear Houston is the team to beat.

From the Bahamas (Sammy seems to love it here so we've got that going for us). Averaged 17ppg, ~6rpg, and ~3.5apg I had never heard of this school but they played a tough schedule. He scored 23 versus Duke.

If the stars align (like they have yet to do) and both Sammy & Dawson are ~hot from 3 we win.

And the version of Dawson at the end of 2022 was better than the current post-injury Dawson. Lesser factor but still relevant.

Honestly, last year was really our year. Ali wasn't supposed to transfer out, Dawson wasn't supposed to get injured, and X2.0 running the show. That team would have been amazing 🫤

Sadly, I'd put Aziz Bandaogo 3rd in that poll 🫤

Worth every penny for an experience like that. Unless you're a Mennonite family of 12, LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Come home & ride our bench KD. You could come & go as you please, help mold young men, and experience the thrill of the game without any of the pressure.

Way to go out on top, KD! Hope KD's our upgraded version of Jim Christian next year.

Echoing @AkronAlumnus's sentiments. I like that you have us Pick 2. Good stuff, @ZipCat 💯

Yeah, gotta make the regular season matter for more than just pride. I remember Bob Knight didn't like the idea of a B10 post season tournament for exactly that reason. On the other hand... just thinking out loud here... high school teams get all excited for league championships (and rightly so), celebrating, cutting down nets, winning trophies, etc., and in high school everyone makes the post season tourney. So the league title is simply for pride as well. So maybe I'm over reacting. Idk.

On the other hand I love that Groce didn't use our last timeout to try and set something up... he simply trusted his veteran roster to push/rush the action & it caught Kent unprepared.

Good to see Big Dog getting so much love. I think ppl forget how good Big Dog was; just wasn't built for 3 games in 3 days. Mike Bardo: 0 Rob Preston: 0 Garvin Clarke: 1 😭😭

Two days since epic win It is now seven a.m. And Kent State still sucks

Thanks! Out of Likes

Do we know what time we play on Thursday?

What's cool to me is that LCJIII retweeted this tweet. What two amazingly talented and amazingly humble guys.

It was Rollins who made that video?!?! On twitter I posted that I felt bad for him. Well I take that back! Knowing this makes last night's final 5 seconds even sweeter!!!

I'd like this but I'm out of likes 😭

JOHN GROCE WON'T PUT TAVARI IN THE GAME AND PLAYS THORNTON INSTEAD AND WE'RE GOING TO LOSE BECAUSE OF IT.

I started following the Zips during Coleman's last season. After Coleman came Dan Hipsher's lackluster tenure followed by KD. So, for me, Zips basketball was pretty irrelevant until KD took over.
