This better not be a shot at me.I talk to the coaches all the time. However, I never mentioned anythingthat the lovely Nicole posted. Nor would I. I just sat back and watched.Her business is her business.Besides, I'm not a snitch. Maybe that person or persons meant well.Just rest assured that I am not involved.nope. just wondering if they thought it could have actually been an issue. probably better to drop it as mama zeke says.

hmm now if we knew any posters that talk to the coaches..

I hear that place is unreal. I can't sniff a ticket for there. I was looking to go to a game on Dec 29th, check out the ticket prices for 4 if your bored!?!? If anybody has a hookup for that game pm me. Check out the schedule of events.You're telling me. It's nuts. Used to grab Pens tix at the igloo for 20-40 bucks and now I'm lucky if i find anything under 80.

Yeah there's 50+ hockey games there a year and maybe 6 bball games. My point was for having next to zero emphasis placed on basketball arrangements, everyone still loved it for the basketball games.

Good ideas. Now, what is your plan to pay for it and maintain it once it is buillt?If we build it strictly for basketball, we'll never be able to pay for it even if we put in some high priced luxury suites and sell them off to local companies. But if we build it to host many different types of events then we can rent it out. Concerts, ice skating, monster truck rallies, and all sorts of crap like that.As soon as I see the word "ice" I get nervous.Any arena large enough to house an ice rink is too damn big for basketball.The university needs a new. larger, better basketball arena. It does not need anything that houses an ice rink.An ice rink is the kiss of death for basketball. It simply does not work at the college level.You guys are acting like it's 1975. The technology is there, it'll be fine. Consol Energy Center opened last year in Pittsburgh and Pitt and Duquesne each played a few games there. Each time the announcers raved on and on about how nice the place was for basketball. Ever hear of the Kohl Center? The Badgers do pretty well. RBC Center? Bradley Center? Madison Square Garden? Not to mention our's would be smaller and more intimate than, well, all of those. If it helps bring a new arena, and new things to Akron, I'm for it. It really isn't going to be a difference if it has a rink or not.

obvious troll is obvious

Always go into overtime at home. The Zips were red hot and the CMU defense had to be tired.If we just kick and extra point down 20-6, this isn't an issue.A three game homestand wasted.Yeah I have the most beef with the 2 pt conversion. Wouldn't be talking about any of this if he takes his XP.

Coaches singlehandedly lose very few games. Ianello lost this one. I wouldn't be able to look my players in the eye.meh. He gave them the chance to win it, and they didn't. I don't think there was a wrong choice between going for it or kicking it. Everyone would be praising the call if he caught it.

Wow. On one hand, Moore was red hot on the last two drives, but on the other hand, we had all the momentum going into OT if we kicked it. I don't know about that.

Wow big stop! credit where credit is due. RI with the smart FG and the kickoff and defensive stop. He's made some dumb decisions this year (even today with the 2 pt conversion), but not a bad job today. Still a shame that we need a last minute TD to tie a team with 2 wins.

not. i'm fine with that, but I'm just not sure our D can get a big 3 and out.

Not a bad 2nd half. Probably will see an onside kick with the 15 yd penalty on the kickoff..

can't argue with that. the 2 pt conversion was insanity though.what happened? i can only see gametracker.They line up with the line all to the left of the center/kicker/holder then usually run over to the regular spot and kick it. This time they snapped it sideways to a DE who ran straight into the line and didn't get it.

can't argue with that. the 2 pt conversion was insanity though.

He is having a great game. Probably the best player on the team if he had any support.I agree.

Chisolm looks very uninterested in contact.

Possibly? I would think you'd know for certain if you were in attendance.Based upon his response, I'd say your shot was a tad high; went right over his head.

i had primanti's at the pitt/uconn game wednesday. mmm.

haha this is great

ok pal

lol jk

Dare I say, we're looking better?

?

i had sloppy joes too! crazy

i agree, but that's because i really like hockey.p.s. i think you guys are overstating how un-"intimate" it'd be if it was fit for hockey too.
