  1. That sucks. I still can't believe we never went dancing during Kwan & Big Dog's 4 years.
  2. He was a grad transfer like Malcolm was for us. His transferring out really hurt our team. We could have had an electric, experienced veteran running the PG spot & it would have enabled Malcolm to play off the ball at a more natural 2G spot. That would have made a world of difference, IMHO.
  3. Charlie Batch was the EMU QB at the first Zips' game I really remember going to (my dad took me to a few when I was a little kid). It was Lee Owen's first year as Zips' head football coach. Lew Lawton (IIRC) ran back the opening kickoff for the Zips. I remember thinking what a gorgeous pass Charlie Batch threw. He was so smooth.
  4. He said something like, "They have to change for us; we don't change for them. If they don't want to play ball the Akron way, they can do it someplace else." Paraphrasing, of course.
  5. This summer's and fall's scrimmages are going to be epic: PG: Cotton Jackson 2G: Ivey Hester W: Parrish Toles F: Utomi Sayles P: Riak Poke Mix in Patton, K-lac & whoever else signs over the next few weeks... I'd pay to watch
  6. I'd love to see Malcolm as a grad assistant next year as he finishes up his master's.
  7. I'm pro-Groce. But I noticed/was thinking the same thing.
  8. It's difficult for me to wrap my head around the fact that we play one senior, one junior and one sophomore. Crazy! All things considered, we overachieved. Proud of these guys! Go Zips!
  9. Audio: Coach Groce interview on WAKR
  10. I'm sure that after a 2-hour film session/coaches meeting, the coaches emerge and tell the players, "We've figured out we'll have to score more points than the other team."
  11. Will this round of games be shown on ESPN3?
  12. Crazy. Has all this been with Duvuvier on the bench?
  13. If Duvivier doesn't get it going we have zero shot.
  14. They do. I'm no insider, but I know that, at least for one week, they stayed at the West Akron Hilton near Summit Mall. I don't know if they stay there for every home game or if they move around. Probably just easier for the staff to have position meetings, regulate what the players are eating & what time they get to bed if they stay at a hotel.
  15. When he was healthy, his dad was one of my favorite NBA players. Laphonso really struggled with the injury bug.
  16. 1st Round CMU over BUGS KSUcks over NIU Sweaters over Oh-No Akron over WMU Quarter Finals Canada over CMU Ball Sweat over KSUcks Toledo over Sweaters Akron over EMU Semi Finals Canada over Ball Sweat Toledo over Akron Final Canada over Toledo
  17. I've got a group of 11 coming
  18. I'm at the Akron Family Restaurant & the team's here. Btw, this place has the best waffles I've ever had.
  19. Sorry, but I'm not aware of any central Ohio players the Zips are currently pursuing. It does make watching HS ball more fun if you know the Zips are going after a kid.
