Blue & Gold

I just turned on 1350 and I think Frenchie said Harney was playing.

Poor InTheZone. He's got to be more depressed than anyone right now. ITZ hasn't posted a single time today. I know I'm bumming. I thought PW was an ideal fit. Especially for our situation. I was thinking of PW as another KD. Crap. Looks as though we've wasted 3 precious weeks in waiting on PW.

His name is Chauncey with an u between the a and the n...Just in case you wanted to know... Oops, right... Chauncey. My bad.

Brief announcement concerning PW's contract extension from the Wayne State University website.

I'm pretty pumped for the game. I really do like the rivalry (wish you guys would just give in & play football @ the Info every year - wait, give a a couple years to get our feet under us). I hope the Zips are as up for the game as I am. If they are, I'm predicting a pretty convincing win, seeing as how you guys struggled against Toledo. However, I was also expecting a convincing win last year and we were lucky to beat you guys. I hope YSU brings their 'A' game. Hoping Chancey & Nik continue their good play & hope Brett decides to actually play some ball. Ironically, he was the one to get us over the hump against you guys last year. Go Zips!

Oh, boy. Looks like ITZ hit the nail on the head. I really like Scot Loefler. I love the fact he's from Barberton. I just don't think he's quite ready to be a head coach.

+1. This is how I've long interpreted the circumstances surrounding a candidate "removing their name from consideration" so far along into the process.

Wow, Men's Soccer is the runaway winner right now. Though we're the futbol capital of North America and, ironically, our American football team is embarrassingly bad, I still thought football would come out on top simply due to the immensity of the sport's popularity. If futbol is beating out football, it's easy to tell futbol is extremely popular here and that our football team is

Whoa. I just looked over the final stats & see that Brett McClanahan had zero points. Wow, not good.

Courtesy of GoZips.com. I wasn't able to see the game tonight, but I like the fact that KD said, "Nicola played like the old Nicola," or words to that effect.

I was able to catch the 4th quarter. Wild finish! Great game.

All great stats Dave, here are a few more from Nik: FG% - .405 FT% - .529 Turnovers/game - 2.4 Points/game - 8.1 Those are unacceptable numbers. When your starting PF is shooting 40% from the field and turns the ball over almost as much as your starting PG you are going to struggle to win games. I don't care how many boards he grabs or how many 3's he hits. If these types of performances continue I would not be at all surprised to see Tree starting at PF by the time we reach MAC play. I agree. This puts KD in an awkward position, as we were really crossing our fingers & putting pressure on Nic to come back for one more year. But he's gotta do what's best for the team.

Those are the sentiments I was trying to convey in my above post.

Your wish is my command. Thanks! +1 (First plus one I have ever posted - I was about to make the same request - what in the world possessed you to do it in the first place?) Just being stupid.

I know it's a hypothetical, but that would be incredibly lame & he shouldn't want to be here working for higher-ups who would have that thought process.

Well, tough loss. But it was a very good game. Very entertaining to watch. Congrats on a great season, WSU & PW!

WSU is really getting banged up.

Uh oh. Blocked punt. If Pittsburgh State scores here it would take a 4th quarter miracle for WSU to pull off the comeback.

It's good to see that PW does not keep his playsheet stuffed down the front of his pleated khaki's.

+1

Your wish is my command.

We will get to see how he handles a little adversity +1. BIG swing. We'll see how his players react.

TD WSU. Again, I love PW's sideline demeanor. He knows there's a ton of game left & his demeanor is essentially as cool & calm after the TD as it was after each of the two INT's. *ESPN commentator, Dan Hawkins, just noted PW's demeanor: "Just love his demeanor. Very calm, very poised. Classy guy. Very much in control. Knows what the Warriors are all about and obviously has this group marching in-step with his philosophy." (No, my recall isn't that quick. I rewound my dvr.)

Well, from what I hear that's a good 5-minutes longer than Zipmeister lasts.

Two badly underthrown interceptions from WSU's QB. I like PW's sideline demeanor. He doesn't berate his players. Very calm & in control. Unflappable. You can tell he's a teacher of the game. Very much a demeanor like Jim Tressel or Mike krzyzewski.
