  1. Kenner, Im due north of you on St. Pete beach. Did you catch any of that storm a few hours ago? Convinced me not to go to USFs spring game at 6...Of course NOW the weather is fine. Should have gone.
  2. Not that the glorious state of Misssssissssipppi is the beat all-end all, but Southern Miss (which is always an entertaining team to watch) had the best football team in the state last year.
  3. Some people see the glass as half empty, some see it as half full, then there's ak.
  4. The full quote: “It was a lesson learned,” said Tabb, who was 19 years old when charges of breaking and entering and possession of stolen goods led to his dismissal at Wake Forest. “I made a mistake, I accepted responsibility and I learned from it. Next time I will have my baby's Mama take the goods to the pawn shop."
  5. Good nonpurchase 84. The MAC made it very clear they weren't going to take the Zips in direct from IAA.
  6. My dad taught at Barberton High for years, and he loved it, but he always used to say, "Barberton, where the kids are raised on cigarettes and switchblades."
  7. I know dReal would love to attend the game, but he's busy now notifying every CFL football team about a great prospect with monster hands.
  8. Good news; our football team is already generating revenue. Unfortunately, like almost all other college football teams the team's expenses are much larger than the revenue generated.
  9. Nothing screams mid mid-major more than a 6'6" power forward.
  10. PAC 12 (or whatever) here we come.
  11. The author of this piece would fit right in as a poster here. On offense, he has us returning 5 of 13 starters.
  12. If ZipAnalyst's quote is correct, it's also fairly presumptuous to claim that he is the University of Akron.
  13. There is no mystery here. There is a federal regulation that any DI transfer named Michael Green must transfer to the Silverswords. http://www.fansonly.com/schools/cham/sport...een_mike00.html
  14. It's fun to imagine. Let's say that TB gets us close to the "Big Time" and then departs for greener pastures. Can you imagine the hatred that will be expressed toward him for abandoning us? I look at comments some posters on this board expressed and how personally insulted they were when the King, who had nothing to do with the UOFA, left Cleveland. I imagine those comments will pale compared to those made about TB the traitor.
  15. Avsec, Oldham and Petersen.
  16. IMHO, any time the number of out of wedlock children a playa has exceeds the playa's number of arrests, the NFL should reduce the number of arrests to be considered in judging the playa's character.
  17. Well you won't be able to say that anymore.
  18. I remember the week that "the injury" was reported, although in my rapidly fading memory I recall it being a thigh injury. Either way, it didn't sound good for the teams chances in upcoming matches.
  19. I think all of the designs are above average and congratulations are in order for all who participated in the contest.
  20. That should increase his playing time..
  21. U may be correct, but it doesn't say that. R U sure they're not referring to seven nonconsecutive 20-win seasons?
  22. How to overstate and understate the accomplishments of KD and UofA basketball all in one paragraph. "This season, Dambrot led the Zips to their first-ever Mid-American Conference regular-season championship. He has guided the program to seven-straight 20 win seasons as Akron is one of just 17 programs nationally to reach the 20-win mark during that stretch. Akron's 184 wins in Dambrot's eight-year tenure are the most in the MAC. The Zips have appeared six-straight MAC title games, the second longest active streak in the nation, and has appeared in the postseason in six of the last seven seasons." Overstatement: Akron is one of only 17 programs to reach the 20-win mark during that stretch (the last 7 years). The truth: There are scores of teams that have had 20 win seasons during the last seven years. Understatement: The Zips have appeared (in) six-straight MAC title games, the second longest active streak in the nation..... The truth: No team has a a longer active streak of appearing in MAC title games. We are #1.
  23. Pretty good statistical analysis, but you have failed to consider the effect of the all important shots per game stat.
