Darn, that's a real shame.

Nothing like a whole day of MACTION B-ball at the Q! Glad it's back.

Here at Crystal State, it's all so clear....

Sounds like someone's bracket might have taken a hit.

Hurley coached a good game. He's going to be on somebody's radar, but, the question is, will he make a move just for any perceived better job or will it have to be a leap to a P5 conference? Oh, and thanks for playing, Jay Bilas & Mr President.

Perhaps you are right. I just shared my thoughts that occurred as I was taking the survey. I thought there was a question earlier in the survey that asked if I was a season ticket holder, so I figured it was open to anyone.

It came to my home email, time stamp was 12:55 PM. I saw the 2013 question, but I just figured that the minor screw up just proves it's from our beloved athletic dept.

Just got this in my email, in case anyone here didn't and would like to participate: https://akron.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b72yW6dtfvE5s8J

Actually, my point was that it's hardly a surprise that Jay Bilas would endorse Bobby Hurley. He even hates people who hate Christian Laetner. But, now that BO has picked Buffalo, I may pick the other way, based on his stellar track record. http://www.nationaljournal.com/white-house/ncaa-march-madness-obama-bracket-20150318

Imagine that, a former Duke basketball player endorsing a former Duke basketball player. What are the odds?

I'd say if you really want Coach Dambrot to see it this, you should use his university email. akronhoops@uakron.edu

I'm pretty sure if you would've said "Hey Bill just a heads up, you made a mistake on a name...." his response would have been a little different. Polite, logical and reasonable. Are you on the right thread? j/k

Bill is a columnist for the Plain Dealer. He is a rather large individual who occupied the very first seat in the second row of the press table right in front of Sec 108. He did manage to get up often enough to work his way back to the free food & drink. As with most columnists, he sees his attempts at humor to be funnier than anyone else does.

Yea, got to admit, The Beefalos were not easy on the eyes tonight at The Q. But Bobby's team came thru. They were the better team tonight. PS: MAC refs suck even when I have no skin in the game.

Just as funny as the earlier tweet that said D Brown was getting every call each time he drove to the hole.

Coming back from that blood clot was amazing, in and of itself. You're basically one moment from a heart attack or a stroke if that clot breaks loose and lodges in a critical place. But to come back from that and produce at such a high level is truly astounding!! God bless and Congratulations, Sina.

I don't think there were more than 2,000 tops at the JAR. Plenty of blue seats open, but, because they were sold as part of the season ticket package, they count. I did get an email last Friday after the Can't State game and another one after the women secured the 3 seed that confirmed the 7 PM starting time. As far as the noise and the intros, it is a tournament thing. I guess they were also out of sponsor freebies and t-shirts. We also noticed they didn't even have any of the young kids under the baskets with water for the refs. Even Coach was surprised, as he walked down under the basket as he does every game to shake their hands and there was no one there. Even the band didn't play every second of every time out. Sweet.

Pretty cool video that came with the U of A Athletic dept email. Attached for those who haven't seen it yet. A nice feel good moment heading into tonight's victory!

Very good stats, Dave. Can you do just the 2nd half of the season? I'd be very surprised if the difference is only 2.4 points.

Makes me think of Billy Joel's almost hit, "I'm in an Akron State of mind."

Keep the name, but look to the future & change our colors to a much bolder/more innovative Blue & Gold.

GT lurks on ZN.O and compiles comments, gets a couple of quotes, rolls it all together and calls it reporting. It's no wonder the ABJ considers Bob Dyer a top "reporter." I'll still take EA.

It would be interesting to see how many of ZN.o sit down low. I do. I know my corner of the JAR ain't no morgue!

I traded seats so I could sit behind Hurley, you know, to help encourage him to release that inner child.
