At least for this year, we've also offered their WR Nate Bauer who is committed to Toledo. They also have other guys going to high power 5 programs on the line. I'm not sure if any other are D-1 prospects this year, but I would guess so if I were a betting man. Outside of that, other players like their QB and RBs are all under classman I believe. They were up 42-14 on Winton Woods at the half. Seems they let up in the 2nd half. Makes me feel less bad about Barbeton getting spanked as it looks like Hoban is just that good. I would have liked to see them play for the D1 title just for the heck of it.

Just wanted to take this off topic for at least one post. I forget what I was listening to a few months ago, but it was an interview with Coney. He said part of the reason he ended up here when he was looking to transfer is because his cousin was here and had good things to say about the program. The cousin was Mr. Coe. I suspect @Cykron is familiar with Mr. Coe. We liked him a lot!

When is it?

1.35 mil, in 2015 at least.

Who cares??? They should be marketing it, no matter what the interest is.

Not sure where to put this, but a nice read about Bowden/Amato's time here. Seems they were aware (and Zipsnation had an accurate pulse) that their job was on the line this season. http://www.cleveland.com/pluto/index.ssf/2017/11/terry_bowden_chuck_amato_akron_zips.html

They seem to score a lot, but don't play much defense. Sounds par for the course for a D'Antoni-led squad. Beat the Thundering Turd!

A freshman QB kicking their ass is what happened

I did. Figured why not. Still not sure I see the value in $35 for a 1.5 hour "party" where alcohol isn't included....but oh well!

Sounds like bobcatattack as well.

That post was made back in September, when the 1-3 Zips struggled to beat BGSU.

So B&G has the inside scoop then I thought I remembered Blunt played LB when I watched a few games earlier in the year. Then again, I can hardly remember everything I did yesterday.

Has anyone received info regarding their tickets yet? The rep told me I would receive all kinds of info, but I haven't gotten any emails yet. Hopefully he didn't write it down wrong!

Like others have said, I liked Ivey's game last night. That's what we need from him going forward. Take it to the hole when there is an opening and let the jump shots come to you. We need make some mistakes that lead me to think we aren't a very good team right now, albeit winning. Was it Parrish who had a dumb foul towards the end of the game?? Anyways, hopefully those types of mistakes are just a sign of youth and we'll continue to work those kinks out. Utomi...........sheesh. We are 4 games into his sophomore season, and I haven't been a fan near as long as some of you, but I think he's the best all around player I've seen in the program. If he can continue to score like he has been, I think we can hang with anyone on our schedule. Then again, his off nights could be ugly because it seems we are really only getting more than a bucket here and there out of Utomi, Ivey, Duvivier, Sayles, and sometimes Parrish. The only consistent one seems like its been Utomi.

I was thinking the same thing.

Well, Keener either quit the site again or was banned, but he asked me to quote his post for the record so I'm doing it!

Like I said...personal preferences for me is Florida or Detroit. If its in Boise again I doubt I would go just due to cost/inconvenience. I doubt the players care too much, they seemed to enjoy themselves the last time we were out there. But a game against the most overrated QB this decade (Josh Allen) would probably get us the most exposure out of any of the games! I would like the chance for our DBs to pick him off a few times and embarrass him.

I know we are talking about different sports here, but don't tell me you wouldn't have rather faced Kent with stakes on the line for both teams last Tuesday. I'm glad we won and glad we are where we are, but a competitive Kent makes it more fun. Look no further than OU and why some consider them a bigger rival than Kent anymore.

His name is Kostas Antekokpoumpos (not going to look up this spelling, but I think you'll get the point). I believe he was a top 100 ranked player coming out of HS but I believe he had to redshirt last year due to injury. He is the brother of NBA phenom Giannis and the youngest of 4 brothers. While he is a big man (6'11" I believe), he is supposed to be the best shooter in his family. I haven't seen him shoot much in the 2 games I've watched though. He definitely influenced the game when he was in there, but him minutes were limited due to foul trouble. I'm a big fan of Giannis, so thats why I'm intrigued by him.

I appreciate the insight! I'm no recruiter, but I like everything I've seen/heard about him. We don't have a QB in this class yet so I hope he ends up getting an offer from us.

Really just need more out of Ivey, Parrish, and Duvivier if you want to win a game like this. Or offense from anybody outside of Sayles and Utomi. I'm pretty disappointed with Ivey so far this season. Saw him getting into it with the coaching staff last game and he really hasn't brought much to the table yet. Yes he is dealing with a new system, but so is everyone else. I hope he can get it going.

Turns out I am wrong. Leaving all of these guys open for 3s seems to be what is costing us.

Just about as bad of a start to the 2nd half as you could think of.

Pleasantly surprised to go into the half with the lead. Utomi balling. Need to minimize Baby Greek's impact on the game. If we can do that, I think we win.

I would too. I'm not sure we're ready to beat a bowl eligible P5 team, though.
