  1. Yet still less than UL-M.
  2. I don't watch as much CBB as others, but have watched more than I typically do this year. I think we are the program I've seen that doesn't have the fan photos/cutouts in the stands. Maybe they make more from the sponsor banners they have hanging up?
  3. I think we all clearly saw flashes of what Dailey can provide in the Toledo game. He just has to put it together on a consistent basis. Trimble emerging has taken a lot of my focus off of Dailey. Hopefully he will come around, but I don't see a pressing need for it as of yet. We just beat the top two teams in the conference in the same week.
  4. Nobody has talked about Meeks for a long time. He was a starter in 2019, but didn't do much. That is a fact. Not saying he wouldn't have done much this year or next. With that said, the article states walk on. Most of our players could walk-on at a larger program.
  5. If you guys don't like the dark arenas, don't attend a game at Staples Center.
  6. 1. Williams forked over the money to make Embick one of the highest paid coaches in the nation. Do we agree/disagree with that move? 2. Williams hired Groce, and hired him on a very friendly contract his first few years, taking advantage of the Illiniois buyout. Do we agree/disagree with that move? 3. Williams fired Bowden - who most wanted fired. Do we agree/disagree with that move? Supposedly there were complaints KD and Bowden had about administration, but everything I've heard on that end is incredibly vague. I'd like to hear some more details before making an opinion on that. Biggest thing against him that I know of is that he may have botched the Arth hire. If Arth leaves early, I'd call it a failure, but it also gives him an opportunity to redeem himself. If he doesn't leave, I'm willing to see the process out 1-2 more seasons.
  7. $100k for each year left on his contract I believe. So should be $300k.
  8. Brown is classless and would be a PR disaster here. I've spent about two minutes thinking about it, but a young up and comer name that comes to mind is Brian Hartline. One of the best recruiters in the country, is from the area, has the OSU ties, has played in the NFL, is young so can relate to this generation somewhat, and has shown to be a pretty dang good coach in his few years. He's never been a head coach, but neither was Sean Lewis. Heck I am not even sure we could afford him. He's currently making 550k. He would need to surround himself with an experienced staff, however. I'm sure there's better choices, but that seems to be a high risk/high reward hire. An older guy that comes to mind is Doc Holliday, if you can get him to leave WV. His firing was a farce. That Marshall program had a lot more up years than down years with him.
  9. Welp is Hilltopper speaks, I listen. Being a fan of Zips football is though. Very tough. I suppose we could get lucky but chances are slim...
  10. Pretty boring and sloppy game for the most part, but I'll never complain about a W. Amazing how in one week we lose to EMU and NIU, then beat Toledo and BGSU the very next week. Hopefully we keep playing at this level. Go Zips!
  11. Very pleased with Trimble the past couple games.
  12. I figured out who Enrique Freeman reminds me of - Anderson Varejao. Hair and style of play very similar.
  13. Come on Dailey...thought he would have some more confidence after last game.
  14. MAC refs are letting defenders get away with a lot of contact on LCJ this season. Just an observation.
  15. Why? As others said, he was "red-shirted" in a year where eligibility didn't count against anyone. Walk-ons got on the field ahead of him on special teams. We have Dollard for two more years if we're lucky, Ant Williams (MSU Transfer) 3-4 years, and its clear that Jonzel Norrils was ahead of him based on the Buffalo game. To add, Gest could technically come back. He's looking at 4th on the depth chart at best for at least for the next two years. He was a 3 star, but I believe that was based on his LB tape and not RB. We are the only school who offered him as a RB.
  16. Great start. Ali playing some nice D on Turner. Freeman dominating Tubs Swingle (the Duquesne transfer).
  17. As expected.
  18. Today I learned I am blocked by GT on twitter. Wonder what I said to him ?
  19. I'm not saying he will/wouldn't ultimately end up succeeding here, but it would sting to lose him. We are already 2 years into this miserable process and would likely be starting from scratch. Not to mention its so late in the process...I can't imagine there are many attractive candidates out there to replace him at this point. Also I pulled the contract info and I think we'd be entitled to a whopping $300k if he leaves.
  20. X wore #20 just last year FYI
  21. I wonder if we can get Shelton Felton back? We do have an opening AFAIK.
  22. M Jackson, Turner, and our Jackson are all 3 very good players the MAC is lucky to have.
  23. Am I the only one who thinks that some of those questions are just cringe? He didn't even know LCJ had the game winning assist.
