I thought I heard on the air that the injury was going to be re-evaluated this week.

Is it bad that the only players I recognized in this were Ritz, MTB, and maybe Suggs?

Speaking of Ronald Beasley.....cross him off the list.

Wow. They lost.

Tough loss, but what an unbelievable effort by Ivey. I've never seen anything like it from a Zip.

That big guy has made some key plays in this game. Its too bad 2 of our big guys are out with injury and the 3rd is fouled out.

HOW IS THAT A FOUL ON COTTON

OMG!

I cannot believe it. What a horrible negligent call.

and Parrish misses the bunny,,,

1 step forward, 2 steps back. Just cannot get over the hump! And that was a flop foul call and a missed foul call where Ivey got hit in the face.

This stoppage could pay dividends. We need all the rest we can get.

I've seen T's called on lesser dunks

Utomi's 3 ball doesn't seem too far off...........they just aren't falling though.

Hell of a game by Ivey.

Mark.....that was not a smart foul.

Utomi needs to keep going up strong when he has it down low. Need a 3rd scoring threat to win this.

Who is anderson?

I didn't include him because I am already counting him as a scholly player (as well as the other new signees). He signed again back in December.

more offensive woes

Hopefully we can finish this game with 5 players on the floor. A LOT of fouls.

How on earth did this team beat Notre Dame.

Nice pass Marky Mark!

I caught that too. Zips getting some looks but struggling to score at the start here.

National Signing Day coming up February 7th. Seems very quiet right now, but the scholly chart estimates 10 scholarships open. For purposes of this discussion, lets assume a walk-on or two impressed enough to earn a scholly or this is a transfer we don't know about. That would bring the figure down to 8. Since early signing day we have added OL Bryce Peterson as a JUCO commit, who I am anticipating will sign. That takes the number down to 7. We have Tim Scippio, Te'Corey Tutson, Ramon Fields, Ronald Beasley, and Treon Sibley who we have down as commits, but didn't sign during the early signing day. I would think there is a reason these guys didn't sign - either grades, or considering somewhere else for whatever reason. My guess is that Ramon Fields (has not other reported offers and figure we would have signed with his teammates) and Ronald Beasley (really early commit last year who we haven't heard anything else about) are for sure out. Lets say 2 of those 5 end up signing. We have non-qualifiers from last year in Marquise Bridges, Tracy Jordan, Marquess Callaway, and Marcus Kidd. I'm assuming Kidd is out due to his arrest. I would think at most we get 2 of these. Lets also assume there are 1 or 2 players we don't know about that won't be with the team next year for whatever reason as some attrition is natural. With that, I think we are really only looking at 4-5 available scholarships. On national signing day last year, we pulled in 3 of our best commits in Matthew Hansen, Zaire Jacobs, and Jeffrey Lubin. We also signed 2 true freshman contributors in Meeks and Williams after NSD. In short, I would expect a boring NSD with the potential to land 1 or 2 decent guys at the last minute, 1 or 2 decent guys post-NSD, and finally have 1 or 2 scholly's saved for transfers. I've been keeping an eye out on 247's Crystal ball and there is nothing there for us yet.
