TW did a nice job "failing forward",

I stepped up finally with the news of the Moorhead hire. Don't believe I've heard anything since the initial deposit though. Plan to do the same for the bball program as well actually due to their success. Doubt I'll end up doing anything more than GA for the time being due to it just being tough to make many of the games in person, but I figure at least it shows support 🤷‍♂️ For whatever reason, I feel the university deserves my $$ much more than the Browns, especially after the past week.

Some scheduling info from this. We have Wright State, Marshall, and Cayman Islands so far for next year. I'd guess Wright State and Marshall locations flipped from 2021. In addition, the conference is going back to 18 game schedule so there will be 2 more non-conference games. Groce also said he likes to tailor the non conference schedule based on the team, so I would look forward to that generally being beefed up some.

Basile just entered the portal.

Now there is a nugget. Lets get her!

Guthrie is getting some hype.. https://dailyorange.com/2022/03/syracuse-university-grad-charles-guthrie-becomes-rising-star-akrons-athletic-director/

Congrats on the W last night...the former Zips assistant Lamont Paris just about took you all down. Appreciate your contributions to the board.

Didn't want to create a new thread, but Dennis Gates is the leading candidate for Missouri apparently. He's done nice at Cle St, but nothing really noteworthy to warrant that big of a jump IMO. Edit: As long as it isn't Groce, why the hell am I complaining?!

There are two aspects that stick out to me this offseason: 1) Do we utilize the transfer portal, and if so how? Messing with the 8 man rotation is a gamble. In addition, how much more room can we realistically have in the rotation, 1 player? You'd hope Kalle, one of the redshirt freshman, or one of the incoming freshman could fill whatever need(s) you think you have going into next season. Not to mention everyone on the team should continue to at least make incremental improvements. 2) How can we best position ourselves to get an at-large bid so that the entire season and chance to build on success doesn't come down to 3 days in Cleveland? The Cayman Island Classic is a good start, but you probably want 1 or 2 additional chances against average or better P5 programs and 1 or 2 chances against better mid-major programs. Losses to those types won't hurt near as much as a loss to App St, and wins are selling points for at-larges. Win some of those challenging games, perform like you need to in conference play, and you might have a chance if you slip up in Cleveland. Toledo and Kent should continue to be tough and I would expect Ohio to compete with Sears, Boals, and whatever additions they bring. I'd think Buffalo is looking a decent drop off with Segu, Mballa, and Williams gone I believe.

It did. We needed more from him without a doubt. Honestly, besides Freeman, X and Clarke to an extent, nobody really showed up on offense. Maybe we should give some credit to UCLA's D though. We didn't have many easy opportunities. With that said, just ANY call going our way probably would have changed the outcome. It stinks.

Man…Ali had Wynn wide open in the corner….

We cannot buy a call smh

That was a charge….

They ain’t giving us any calls.

X is bringing it

This halftime feels like it’s taking forever

LETS GO ! NIce first half. Would the offense to get some more flow but the defense is top notch this game, on both sides.

settle down..

These guys came to play!

Let’s go Zips! Regardless of what happens, been a great time watching this team this year as well as talking with all of you. Why not us?!!

And it looks like NMSU has it.

The MAC (and of course BG) sure miss Chris Jans. NMSU is hanging tough with UNCONN and I think they have a chance to win. The WAC is pretty weak I believe, but they had wins over Wash St and Davidson this season.

Anyone have a link to this full press conference?

Carry looking a little humbled.
