Thanks. I missed that! No, I cant.

http://gozips.com/sports/mbkb/2012-13/rele.../20130122k3rejz Thoughts on the way the University goes about this? Not a fan, considering all of the handouts have been during class time for me. Why not just have students pick them up at the ticket office or not do anything at all? First come at the game, first serve. Seems counter-productive to make it harder for students to get tickets in a game they actually want to go to.

Buffalo is probably the most marketable opponent in the MAC outside of Can't and OU. Add in the fact that that it is a weekend game and Akron is on the 3rd longest win streak in the nation, and I think the team and circumstances (not bobbleheads) are perfect for drawing a good crowd.

Based on last season, no, Akron is not a better location. I am smart enough to look at the future instead of what happened last season, however. Cant had a dream season. So naturally more kids are going to want to come to Can't. What these kids dont know is that Can't is normally a horrendous D-1 program. Lets face it, these Massilon kids probably never heard of Can't before Hazell. This reminds me of Auburn a few years ago after winning the NC by sending a nice sum to Ca$h Newton. They pulled in a top recruiting class just because Auburn was the "flavor of the month", and now Auburn is the worst team in the SEC, maybe on of the worst AQs. Like I said, I only want kids that want to be a part of something special. Kids that have a vision and are dedicated. Ill enjoy beating those kids at Cant at minimum, 3 of the next 4 years (assuming Bowden is here).

Ohio's seating is pretty steep if I recall correctly.

How is the overall class looking this year? Any drop off in recruiting compared to years past?

If they want to go to a program that will fall back into irrelevancy, let them. I only want players who want to come here and be apart of something special. Turning around one of the worst programs in D1 into a premiere MAC program. Enjoy Can't!

I was a little hesitant when first seeing this, being that the kid is from WV. But WOW, looks like TB may have a diamond in the rough. He looks like he has great agility, awareness, acceleration, as well as some nice speed! Lets get him the ball in space.

can Kretzer dunk?

Chaunceyyyyyyy. PS- I absolutely love the full court press, brought to you by our exceptional depth.

3 turnovers the last 3 possessions for Harney GET HIM OUT

Harney is lazy.

could we see a triple- double..

Not even going to think about it. Every time I get my hopes up, I get disappointed. Whatever happens, happens. And I hope it will be good enough to make The Dance.

Tree has really impressed me this year. I knew coming in that he was a great rebounder, but he has shown me much more. Hopefully he continues to improve. I think he has real potential.

Congrats to him on scoring his 1000th! Had no idea...

Being common doesnt make it right, either. Have never been a fan of the "home of the zips" at the end. Im glad they are doing away with it.

agreed. So generic. I went to a high school in a town with 500 people and we still found people to sing, and sing pretty darn well! #ThinkBigger

As a student, I just want to throw out that having head Rowdies up top, as well as down low is a great idea. No leadership (unfortunately that is whats needed) is the reason I feel the top is usually uninvolved. I have, however, saw the top very much involved during Can't and OU games. edit: I dont really put any blame on the Rowdies. I joined my first year in Akron, but havent since for no reason really. I still attend as many games as I can. The blame goes to the University on making this more difficult than it should be for not having a completely unified student section!

Can you just walk down there? When going to a game this year, I asked about the wrist band, and they said they arent giving them out anymore.

Whew. Glad to come out of Portage County with the win. On to the next.

Their guy falls over Tree and he gets called for the foul. What a joke!

ugh...im at a loss of words.

what a terrible call

well we have a great advantage with Can't being in foul trouble, however its not really an advantage because we cannot buy a free throw.
