Finally.Those signs are all over the area in general, not just on buses. I have seen them on multiple billboards. It's such a different feeling.

By week two of the season someone will be the 3rd QB be that will be able to provide the same, and probably more at the position. No worries.....to know that if he ended up having to go to a 3rd QB at some point, he would have someone ready. -
Well done. Anybody want to identify the players?

All that got them was a seat on the couch to watch 68 teams play in one of the most exciting tournaments in sports.On the other hand, the Zips finished the season with an RPI of 60 out of 344 D-I teams, which ranks them in the 83rd percentile. Again assuming that 50th percentile is about average, and that the Zips were worse than 59 teams and better than 283, some will say the Zips are above average (or good) and some will say much above average (or very good).Knowing their goals at the beginning of the season, I'm sure the staff, and team would trade those "above average stats" to play in that tournament.
I know most Zips fans would. Stats Shmats, I want to win a game in the tourney now!!! It's time. No excuses.
I'm hoping Pat can help them achieve that goal....sooner rather than later.

If the Whiskey "bar" is anything like the Peninsula Lizard, don't get too excited. I've seen better selections at college parties.Whiskey and Craft Beer makes it sounds like it's going to be more like Lizardville in Rocky River (which is a good thing)Delilah's in Chicago has the best Whiskey bar I have been to. Stanley's Kitchen is another good one.

Agreed. Good stuff.Love it George!!! I get more and more excited everyday and every bit of information we get fuels the fire! -
Cook AgreesEvery time Gordon Gee-whiz opens his mouth, I think the same thing. He makes something like $2 million a year, or about half of what he has to pay his football coach. -
I am going to follow. I'm hoping unlike 99% of tweets, I will learn something of interest.
I would guess many here already follow due to your contributions at ZN....that is/was your best promotion.
Good luck.

I've never heard of him before, but watched the first episode on hulu at lunch today. The most unhealthy town is Marshall fans. ;-)Has anyone seen Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution? He gets Huntington WV to get behind healthy food initiatives and in 2010, before the initiative, they were the most unhealthy city in the U.S.! He helped to change the lives of a lot of people whose lives were actually at risk because of the unhealthy condition their everyday diet put them in. People did not know that what they were eating was basically poison to them over time. Jamie's Food Revolution Huntington has now set a good example and I think everyone can learn from that. -
This is one group I'll be paying close attention to when I'm at the games. This is supposed to be Chuck's signature position. I'll be watching...The Linebackers I'm actually surprised we're as high as #10 here.The Zips have experience in the area, with expected starts in OLBs Justin March (36 tackles) and Jamar Williams (38 tackles), and MLB Troy Gilmer (71 tackles). The key will be whether or not new defensive coordinator Chuck Amato can maximize their talents.

Nice post ZFP.People need to be educated about food and dietary decisions and there is no better place than during their university years. I have summer classes in West Hall and the only quick "healthy" food option I have on campus is subway in the student union. Subway is ok and all, but that's really not good enough. If the options on campus are healthy and tasty, I don't see why there should be any problem. Food can taste good and be good for you at the same time.From one of my favorite new (for me) websites, here is an article on How to Eat Healthy At Chipotle

Rosewood Grill in Hudson, and Blue Canyon's BC Burger in Twinsburg are two local places that do a pretty good job.

Bud Shaw making some points.
Anything that debunks the myth of Joe Paterno is fine by me. Tearing the statue down for instance. But the NCAA's decision to revise the one thing we know he was -- a good football coach -- doesn't make sense. He's still the winningest coach in Div. I history in my book. That was fact, not fiction.
I'm paraphrasing something I heard on the radio the other day. "I think they should have left the JoPa statue up, but added a phone in his hand like he was calling the police on Sandusky. Then it could have represented what he should have done." --Howard Stern

Clayton Moore, a former Clarion-Ledger Dandy Dozen, who went on to sign with Ole Miss out of Louisville High School, has signed with Jackson State. Moore picked JSU over fellow SWAC member Alcorn State.

Bell's is worth the trip with NO game IMO. I went a few years back before a Boz/Ball game. Good times.For a long time I've been wanting to hit up Western Michigan, just not in late November. -
Nice research. My first thought was because #44 was more of a "power back" number, and #7 seems to be a...um, not sure how to describe his new running style in this offense? Scat back? Nah, that's not right, but you know what I mean. Or the single digit makes him look smaller and faster/more conditioned? CK is right, damn you Frenchy, now I'm wondering...That had me curious as well. Apparently, Jawon has a history of number changing since he wore both #3 and #11 in high school. In fact, take a look at this web site. It shows current Zip DB Anthony Holmes (#7, interestingly) pitching the ball to Jawon (#3). -
Interesting article. Thanks.

Ken+, OU, and VCU somehow managed to overcome this. Why can't UA? It will be nice when we don't have to make excuses some day.One time I'd like to see the Zips get a game in the NCAA tournament that wasn't a home game for our opponent. Imagine us getting a first round game at the Q. -
Nice interview, good job Steve and Jawon.#7 gives a nice description of the pace of TB's offense and the need to be in top physical shape.
-
Win a game in the NCAA tournament KD. It's time.
LBJ leaving Cleveland the way he did may just end up benefiting UA.
I think he realizes the way he did it was wrong and helping UA out would be a great PR move.
Odd way to look at it, yes, but I still can't help thinking it.

As I stated above Chris Rainey had a pretty successful career at Florida and Sproles at Kansas State. They are pretty much the same size.I hate when people think cuz a kid is small hes not capable to play D1 ball.With the type of offense that the Zips will be running, it might just be beneficial.

LeBron's gmail was hacked, take a look.
