Maybe the one time government intervention is a good thing. Clearly the people running it now aren’t fit

Travis has some maturing to do: throwing a temper tantrum including knocking one of WMU’s speakers over going into the locker room.

I want Shammah Scott with the ball in his hands at the end of a one possession game.

Doesn’t the MAC get more money for each game played? If so, I’m all for it

Skaljac is playing really well for them. Being honest, I think they are the favorite watching them last night. Of course doesn’t mean we can’t knock them off. We might be looking at UMASS, Kent, then Miami in the tournament though which would be tough.

Random thought: it seems like schools are having players sign contracts. Generally speaking, most players coming to Akron don’t have opportunities elsewhere. Why wouldn’t we 1) require players to sign multi year contracts, and 2) require players to pay us x percentage of NIL/revenue sharing they receive at new schools they are leaving us for if they break their contract?

It’s been close to decade since the Zips have had somebody at the combine.

I believe Akron has separate buckets for revenue sharing among sports.

The money should go directly to the football revenue sharing pot.

Maybe he can throw us a bone and schedule us

15mm is more than a million for each member school (assuming it’s distributed to members). Also sounds like they are willing to forgo TV revenue money, which I expect to increase in general with the new deal coming up, and more if the Sacramento market is in the mix. Sac State has also been paying money for big name players who haven’t worked out in P5 which makes them intriguing to watch. A trip there every other year probably seems worth it to me.

I’ll take the call, but it’s bad. These refs suck

Weakest ejection I’ve seen in my life.

The only team we had a real spat with this year (I don’t count Kent) is UMASS. Tells you all you need to know.

Well we seem to have woken up a little bit, now somebody needs to step up and help Tavari.

It looked to me like the umass player fouled Lyles..

Young really needs to step it up. Need Shammah to get back to form too.

A little over $1mm after tax. That invested in the stock market will double approximately every 8 years on average. At worst he’s set up for retirement, but would have $10mm+ by then. He’s set up in a spot to no longer worker after his professional playing career is over if he doesn’t want to.

Reminds me of the sophomore slump Tavari had. At least he’s a hustler and good on defense, but him getting back to form on offense by the end of season would be huge..issue is he hasn’t had it all year.

We’re getting solid looks, just not hitting them

Giant dud

On to triple overtime a umASS hits a DEEP 3 at the buzzer.

umASS and coastal Carolina in overtime.

I would start by replacing the bleachers with chairbacks on the top sideline. Keep the bleachers behind the basket as GA seating. Everything else is assigned (thus higher pricing). I missed out on buying tickets in time to get chair seating for the Kent game and the bleachers were not pleasant for this mid-30s guy. The seating is not spaced out enough for the average size of an American in this day and age.
