Wooo! I'll take the W!

Literally all of Buffalo's baskets are coming off of layups. Need better defense, specifically transition D.

Watching the development of Big Dog is such a joy.

You are watching on ESPN3 right? I wouldn't expect anything less.

I literally LOL'd. Just when you think the ABJ can't get any worse. How does this guy have a job there? What kind of scouting report is that? Elton takes some flack, but what he publishes is light years better than this shit, and he doesn't even work for the hometown paper!

I had no clue Hocking college had a football team.

Both seemed to be pretty well regarded players coming out of HS. Hopefully both hometown guys will end up contributing similar to the likes of Lane, Grice, Pittman, etc. I'm pretty excited for this Gladney. How many years of eligibility will he have left??

what a little kid.

Not to write Ivey off, but I would expect more for as much as he was talked up on here.

Re: Rogers, I tried to do a little digging. I would have swore there used to be a student directory where you could look up students, but I couldn't find it. Anyways, taking a quick look at his twitter, he is followed by Akron football video and retweeted a tweet about Akron's bowl win. Besides that I couldnt find anything else, but I think it shows there's a possibility he could be involved with the football team. I also noticed he wasn't offered by Akron coming out of high school...why??

6-10.

Should all be eligible in 2016. All of them sat out this season.

Bingo. We've never been in the "national conversation" or even close in the OOC stretch of the schedule.

I couldn't find anything about him coming out of HS. He has a nice G5 offer list now, though. Looking at his twitter, I also found out we also offered his teammate DeMarcus Lloyd (LB). Looks like we are his only offer so far. https://twitter.com/moonthetruth_7/status/682311002411655169 Originally at Oklahoma. Looks to have offers from Iowa St, Akron, and UAB. Would be a tremendous get with 3 years of eligibility I believe.

You can bet your ass this season counts as a redshirt year for Utomi unless he gets significant playing time down the road. KD isn't stupid.

Balsy's schedule predictions have been pretty close to spot on in the past, IIRC. I wouldn't mind trading Toledo or WMU for a Ball St.

That 30-3 Stephen F Austin team didn't get an at-large did they?

Thanks for the kind words. Somewhat off topic. but something I have noticed on this board is that there sometimes seems to be some politics between supporting one sport over another and fans who stick to or stay out of one forum altogether. I hope with the success of all of the big Zips programs this year, we can all support each other. I realize some people just favor some sports, but we're all we've got and we need to stick together. Go Zips and Merry Christmas Zipsnation!

That comment stuck out to me as well.

pathetic showing by the MAC today. I have faith in WMU tomorrow, think CMU game is a toss-up, probable loss.

crazy stat RedditCFB ‏@RedditCFB 1m1 minute ago NIU finished the game with 33 total yards, which was one less than they had at halftime (34)! #PoinsettiaBowl

never would have thought it would be NIU that embarrasses the conference.

I would like to see it as well. Everything I have seen from him makes me think he has kept a good attitude, which would be hard to do given his situation, He's a heck of an athlete, I think he could find somewhere to contribute if he doesn;t want to be a back up the remainder of his career.

I thought I saw on TV yesterday and my relative confirmed today- that the Zips supposedly got a 750k payout. Doesn't match up with anything I've read, though.

Couldn't agree more. There are a few sports writers at the ABJ that earn their paycheck. Lloyd, Marla, and maybe Ulrich.
