  1. I hear NC State is the 4th game.
  2. GOOOOOOOAAAALLLL Scotty Caldwell!
  3. Actually both teams are at 10. Gallego had a red.
  4. You seem to be confusing rural and suburban areas. Can't, Buffalo, and EMU are suburban. NIU, Miami, Bowling Green are rural. I've been to most MAC campuses and quite a few Big Ten campuses. The Big Ten is made up entirely of land grant universities. That and their academics tie them together, but more importantly than any of that, they share the same culture. The MAC does not share a culture across its member institutions, in fact it varies wildly. Akron begged to get into the MAC, and it was a horrible mistake. If I had my say back then I would be dead against such a move (I am well aware of how the MAC was around the time we got in, so I am not judging based on where we are now). We never belonged in this league; the MAC has never treated us like one of its core members. As far as EMU's budget, they spend it funding non-revenue programs. That is where their priority is. they can be just as successful in a non-football league or a lower division. If you're in the MAC, as an FBS school football had better be your top priority, followed by basketball. Ball State is another school who doesn't care for sports, but keeps them reluctantly. They drove away Brady Hoke after he became too successful. Ugh. U of Mich, Indiana, Iowa and Northwestern are not Land Grant universities. According to the NCAA, total football operating expenses: EMU $4.385 million Akron $3.862 million Basketball operating expenses: EMU $1.367 million Akron $1.035 million So if EMU doesn't care about the big sports...? BTW, I only looked up a handful of schools, but BGSU and Ball State both outspent Akron on football and basketball. Just because emu spent more on bball doesn't make them a better team.
  5. I thought the team was going from Mississippi straight to WVU?
  6. Ohio Burger has the same manager and same employees as Sizzling Zone. The burgers they make are delicious. They put bacon on the burgers and the burger is pretty good. They tried modeling after 5 Guys Burgers and Fries.
  7. According to Brian Walsh, he increased his vertical by 7 inches this summer.
  8. Men- College Cup or bustWomen- Win a game in the tourney
  9. It is actually Saturday NOT Friday.
  10. Saturday at 5 ESPNU will be replaying the final for anyone who still doesn't have it saved on their tivo.
  11. Just got done talking to a player to confirm some rumors. They are playing in the Valpo tourney. They are trying to set up a nonconference game vs st johns at msg. Also confirmed wvu and miss st.
  12. I thought I saw Cant's basketball team on campus today...
  13. Zips beat Oakland 1-0
  14. Zips beat Michigan 1-0
  15. I agree. How much would a BIG curtain cost so that we can restrict current seating to 50% of capacity and the JAR doesn't look so empty? Have you ever been to Millet Hall in Miami (OH)? What about CSU? They both have curtains and it looks terrible.
  16. I bet we will have answers to a lot of these questions after the summer trip to Canada. I hope we can watch those games online somewhere.
  17. Nik is not coming back. Enjoy the present there is plenty of time for these threads after we go dancing.
  18. Entering the tournament Steve McNeese has a realistic shot at joining the 1000pt club with his current mark of 935. Darryl Robers has a long shot with 916 pts.
  19. Hour before the game Can't has both end zones packed with students. Looks like they made their football and other sports teams come.
  20. Looking at those stats I bet that Alex will contribute more int he next 3 years. But he will also make more turnovers and foul in that same time span than Steve.
  21. Why is it that there are more people with "official" rowdy shirts who sit in the GA section then in the lower section with the Rowdy board?
  22. Can we have a celeb coach for those games? Caleb Porter?
  23. He is gone. He already has sent video to various teams in Europe.
  24. Akron comes in at 145 rpi wedged in between power houses Quinnipiac and Central Conn. St. I'm not sure why espn scheduled lowly Akron to play Mighty Creighton who kills us in the rpi coming in at 137. I wonder if anyone on their board knows this.
