LOL

Picking Kwan to come out of his shooting funk.

Also, Skip..I think you are getting some short term memory loss with that old age

Not that I disagree, but its hard to be in sync when you are separated and can't see the people leading chants.

Trust me man, I agree with you 99% of the time. I remember someone else advocating the same last year vs Wisconsin and I disagreed. We lost Ball, Young, and various other injuries that game I'm sure. PSU is going to be a preseason top 5 team. I remember reading somebody say Woody potential being out to start the season lessens their expectations. Well, I say the result of the first 2 games should not change depending on who plays and who doesnt. Long shot in hell to beat PSU in Happy Valley to open the season and there is no way in hell we should lose to UAPB. I am competitor, but I wouldn't hate it if some players were "eased" back in. A slim chance to beat a powerhouse is a lot to mortgage your season on when you aren't loaded with depth. But then again I enjoyed our "close" battle in person with them a few years ago and the almost win at Michigan is one of my favorite memories of my Zips fandom lol.

Thoughts on sitting him vs Penn State?

I think I agree for now. I am a fan of the new guys in charge.

Niiiiiice! Should take some burden off of the new WRs.

Assuming this is what was shown on SportsCenter http://www.espn.com/video/clip?id=18643094&ex_cid=espntw&sf54997958=1

Terry Pluto talks some Zips. http://wksu.org/post/view-pluto-akron-shoots-another-zip-code-top-mac

You guys are acting like Keene is some inefficient chucker. His FG%, 3pt%, and FT% are all pretty dang good. He would be top 2 or 3 in all of those categories on our team when counting just guards or guys that actually play. He would even be the leading player in assists per/game by 1.9 (so much for saying he doesn't pass). Obviously I want Big Dog to win, but just warning you all now not to be disappointed when it doesn't happen.

Here you go...

Time will tell. Keene is the leading scorer in the nation by a landslide. The award doesn't go to the best player on the best team. If so, Akron would have more than one winner ever.

And "crappy" CMU just beat OU by 10 in Athens behind 41 points from Keene. CMU is now the top team in the West and has the 2nd best record in the conference. Even though some on here won't like this, I don't see how Keene isn't name POY.

BD hit about an 18 foot jumper to win it.

Not to mention you can't "goaltend" a pass. Or you can't shoot the ball from out of bounds. He doesn't have a point no matter which angle he was trying to use.

what is the Ball State coach crying about???

Holy shit what an ending! We crapped down our leg, then Ball State did...then Big Dog comes through in the clutch!!

How in the hell was that called on Big Dog...

Hate to continue harping on a guy, but Aa. Jackson once again plays negative basketball. TDM's 3 was the first of the half. Need to shoot at a better clip. Josh is still slumping and Kwan has not recovered yet either.

I'm assuming these offers/commitments mentioned today are for walk ons?

I know they aren't all on here as I believe we have at least 3 offers out to East kids that I didn't see, but here it 247's list of reported offers so far. http://akron.247sports.com/Season/2018-Football/Offers
