Zipmeister

Finally. At this point I believe we lead the nation in Williams signings.

Apparently many of our recruits sleep in or live in California. J. Williams and Bullard surprises (at least to me).

Time to make sure the fax machine is plugged in and powered up.

OK, everyone remember to act surprised when the class announced tomorrow includes most or all of: Bolden, Clayton, Cull, Lash, Logan, and Suesbury.

Miss the "actuive topics" link.

I think things have worked out great for all concerned. Both the Bulldogs and Celtics on on the verge of being in contention.

It do for me.

That's a pretty lame excuse for depriving those of us who rely on him to report the minutes each Zip played in the Testicle Tech game. Hopefully, he will make this right by revealing the number of minutes he spent on various facets of the renovation project (e.g., 70 - painting, 100 - electrical, etc.).

Yes, almost all college athletic administrators lack imagination. If they didn't, some of them would have already adopted a pay per view model and moved to on demand game start times. The MAC has taken a step in that direction with their mid-week contests, but where does that leave the true college football fan with a hankering to see Tulsa play UMass on Monday at 3 a.m.?

One thing I have noticed in studying minutes per game is that we always seem to play to our opponents' level. Almost every game I checked out we have 200 minutes which is exactly the same as the team we are playing. The OU game was an exception. In that contest we managed to get 210 minutes, but again so did they. You would think if our coaches were so great that by now we would be getting more minutes per game than our opponents.

The idea of spring football continues to fail to gain traction, perhaps because the change would be too dramatic. Maybe we should get there in small increments. Non BCS schools could move the start of their season up by one week every year for about a dozen years. Then, boom goes the dynamite, you got spring football.

Have you figured out your Dad was right yet? It was a pretty junior high school type of thing to do.

Ah the memories. Do you remember even later when we struggled to get D2 status?

Taking 18 hours and passing 18 hours are two different things. Plus if HIS last semester was last year, that doesn't do him any good for next year.

Q: Why is there no attendance figure in the box score for the OU/EMU game? A: The guy in charge of counting didn't realize he could count himself.

One of the best moves KS.U ever made pretending that they were upset to lose Ford. About 2.5 years into his gig at Bradley, Geno is rapidly closing in on 60 losses.

Still 14; better look again closer.

I hope things go well for you this term in your "Waking up and smelling the Coffee" class. It wouldn't matter if we had signed a CB coach seven days ago - he's gone.

I'll bet he can; just you wait and see. On a related note, when is the next time we play a team that tends to play zone D?

I understand that currently we trail only UNLV and Cincinnati in second chances given. And I seriously doubt Alex will have acquired enough hours to be academically eligible for next season when his 5 year eligibility window closes.

This isn't even close. The Sea hawks have one guy on their practice squad who played in the MAC. The Broncos have two guys on their practice squad and 2 guys on their active roster. This boils down to a 14 point advantage for Denver.

If we wait for over a million years to bring him back I'm concerned his skills may have deteriorated to the point where he would not be that valuable to the team. Of course with medical advances over that period of time some pretty impressive cybernetics could be installed to offset the aging process.

I wonder if he walks around with a lap top shoved down his pants. I would love to see his response if you get one.

It's not just guards. Forward, Chris Wright, the Red Claws #1 prospect doesn't waste any energy playing defense.

Q is the David Copperfield of dribbling.
