Interesting and good discussion comparing the two teams. This team still has its issues, though some guys like Hunter starting to come along would play a big part in addressing them. One good thing I can say about this team that is we have no "bad" losses thus far. The WKU and SDSU win looked good on paper at the time. They aren't looking great but are still "OK" to good wins. Nevada is shockingly at the top of the Mountain West early. We probably should have beaten them.

Who gives out contract extensions in the first half of a season? No one. Complaining about extensions/Guthrie is premature.

Yeah this one is up there with Landers last year.

That’s when we offered him too.

No commitment tweeted yet, but looks like it could be David Jester.

Perhaps news on a safety coming soon..

You’re right. Tavari gets a lot of attention when talking about young players with potential, but Lyles contributes pretty solid as a big man true freshman.

Good question. I noticed Tribble on him once. Assume it would have been Tribble or Hankerson.

It’s official now. Bummer.

Don’t look now but Hunter is really coming along.

That was just this offseason!

Heath ejected lmao

This is fun. Also Bates sucks.

Bringing the energy! Feels good to have the students back.

Seems like a nice get for BG

I think it started here down 51-49 with 1:37 left: 1:37Foul on Tyler Cheese.5149 Of course we have no way to confirm if it was intentional or not without video https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/playbyplay/_/gameId/401172680

Good for Fessler. May be wrong, but I'd assume Joe Mo will still be calling the plays.

Maybe at one point, but I'm pretty sure we intentionally gave them FTs in a one score game with adequate time left to get a shot off after their possession.

I don't think its the season is it? Hilltopper was referencing Dawson.

Haven't seen it announced anywhere, but 247 is showing Tony Grimes as being in the portal. https://247sports.com/college/akron/Season/2023-Football/TransferPortal/?institutionkey=24065

Beckman and Gray are picking up MAC offers already.

I got into a little back and forth with another Zips fan at the end of that game. If my memory is correct, Groce was fouling when he didn't need to (it was still a 1 possession game with appropriate time left). Didn't make sense to me and still doesn't, but it worked out. Sweet watching X hit that game winner.

Agreed. Tavari excelled coming off the bench early in the season. Best for the team right now IMO.

We escaped.

Did look like Johnson got all ball there.
