Actually found this Confirms Penn Station and Chipotle, but unfortunately looks like they are still seeking tenants to fill the rest.

True or it could be a Moe's. Didn't even notice "printer" as one of the storefronts. Could this mean a move for Kinkos? Just can't see a need for two printing places a block from one another. That would mean that a new building would be going up on the next block to the east. The coffee place is a bit odd, seeing as a Starbucks is already in the Exchange building. Hopefully they won't be moving.

Here's some pics I found on another forum that you guys will enjoy! My guess is they used generic names for now. But one has to assume that "Subs"=PennStation and "Mexican"=Chipotle Maybe a BestCuts/FamousHair and Gamestop as well?

Yeah the Q already had one of my favorite scoreboards. But Gilbert announced he wants to bring in a new one that's about 60ft, similar to the ones used in Houston and Indiana. Basically a scaled down version of the Cowboys Stadium scoreboard. I don't think UA could afford that, so why not just buy the old jumbotron from the Q? I'd like to see a really nice scoreboard like that, and the "ribbon" boards on the upper deck. Like we have at InfoCision. Great spot for advertising.

I have enjoyed the winning streak and ranking. But really all that matters is what happens in March. If we don't make the NCAA tournament it will be very disappointing.

I've picked the Zips to win plenty of times. But there are plenty of games I say the Zips could lose and everyone freaks out. Like the Buffalo game on Saturday. We could very well lose that. Overlooking a team after a solid win on the road yesterday. And you can't blame me for feeling discouraged when I see this team fall behind by 20 every game and have to rely on a big run to win.

I never called out any players so do some research first. I did say they we'd lose, but admitted I was wrong after the game.

First of all, we've all experienced the Akron soccer crowds. As far as basketball OhioU fans need to stop throwing out attendance numbers. The JAR only holds over 5,000 so of course we can't have a crowd of 10,000. Last time I checked that's not possible.

I don't think the game was "fixed." It was a typical MAC game with bad calls going both ways.

Maybe they are fixing it. Maybe it's all a conspiracy to get 2 teams in the dance? Let Akron win last night, and OhioU win in the championship. ...at least this is what OhioU fans are saying now.

Worry about the next game. That's all that matters.

Is it normal to travel on a game day like that? Seems like it would be smarter to fly to Buffalo on Friday and fly back on Saturday.

That would take us 19 years. We can enjoy this game for now. I'll bring up the "letdown" game and so on later.

I was wrong, but very very happy to be wrong! Tough inside play > chucking half court shots

Sorry but this isn't Buffalo or Central Michigan we're playing. You can't go 5 minutes without scoring and expect to win.

Well I hate to day I told you so. As much as I love the Zips, I knew all along they would lose this one.

Well the Zips have to make a run in the second half if they want a chance. They are playing like a team down 30 right now. The ride was fun while it lasted.

Sloppy play resulting in turnovers and inability to maintain a lead. Typical game for this season.

I've been saying all season we won't make the NCAA tournament. The cover doesn't change my opinion really... I see the top-25 ranking as more of a curse than anything.

Do they even have roads there?

I honestly don't think this team has done anything to prove they are different than any previous Zips teams. Winning 12 MAC games? Beating a school from a major conference? Beat OhioU in Akron? Beat Can't? All Happened last year. We have 4 games left and can still finish with the same record in conference as last year. Yes 1-3 would be an awful finish, but it's happened before.

I wouldn't say there are many pessimists around here, mostly just me. It's just tough to think of a positive outcome since we haven't been able to beat OhioU away from Akron in quite some time.

Honestly I'm happy to be ranked, but it's just going to put more pressure on this team for wednesday. It would be typical Akron fashion to lose...

Unfortunately I don't think the MAC has the potential to be a 2-bid league anytime soon. The Zips will always be a team that starts the season slow, and loses a handful of games they shouldn't. Bad losses and a weak schedule end most of our seasons in disappointment. We are the best team in the MAC, but anything can happen in the tournament. Right now there are 12 teams in the MAC that all have the same likelihood of making the NCAA tournament. If they want to avoid it next season they need to start strong.

They hate us much more than we hate them. Akron-Can't will always be the biggest rivalry in the MAC. When I was at UA a few years ago, no one really cared about OhioU. To us it was just another MAC game, which is really my feeling still.
