  1. Admittedly, the tough part of the branding here is determining if it's really a P4, or if it's more of a P2.5, because the ACC is so far behind the SEC/B1G/even B12.
  2. Definitely a premier mid-major job, I agree. UConn should be part of that grouping, too.
  3. It's tough being a non-P4 coach, especially when you used to be in a major basketball league.
  4. The dance is dead. At least we have the memories.
  5. No no, this is fair. I was using "NIL" as something of an overarching statement.
  6. Is Nebraska a top-5 paid team like Indiana football was?
  7. Well sure, if the P4 team completely overlooks the mid-major, they can stay close for awhile. But I'll note that none of those teams mentioned are watching tape for today or tomorrow. NIL killed the dance. It is what it is.
  8. Pretty much. They won't underachieve, but it's clear winning Saturday in Cleveland is the ceiling.
  9. And that's, frankly, why I have no worries this team will reach its ceiling more often than not. Groce gets the most out of these Zips teams.
  10. Akron isn't sneaking up on anyone like those teams do. Akron is respected, and actually needs to show up for one of these. Probably a result of the MAC being overvalued, yes, and Akron being on top of the MAC. Until they do, this is as good as it gets.
  11. Oh you're not wrong. This is as good as it gets. Just gotta hope they play hard for all 40 minutes so it's a 5-8 point loss and not a 20 point one.
  12. Not happening unless the Zips get substantially better. This was a banged up Texas Tech team that was probably overseeded anyways.
  13. Or maybe we're overrating the MAC. Kent got smoked by a 21-12 MVC team, so it seems maybe our 5-loss team is at the same level of a 12-loss MVC team.
  14. Well I'm glad they played a hard 32 minute game. It's not high school and college games are 40, but that's what we got.
  15. Glad they quit like Moorhead's coaching them today. That was fun to watch.
  16. The officiating has been fine. Shooting two halves like it's the first half in Cleveland is what's killing Akron.
  17. Well they won the MAC again. We'll always have that.
  18. Not in the days of color TV at least
  19. Need to add: MAC Addition NIU to the Horizon League
  20. I mean yes. But that they gotta come back and the pressure is still 400% on Duke here. It's probably only a 5% chance, but that's a lot more than the 0.00001% it was not too long ago.
  21. That's...slightly less certain than it seems it would be.
  22. I dunno, I think UMass gave Miami their best shot last week...
  23. I don't think Miami's gameplan is horrendous. They know they don't match up, but if they can all keep hitting ridiculous shots like they're Jon Diebler at Upper Sandusky, they can beat SMU. Only gotta do it for 20 more minutes.
  24. Well we all know there's only one choice here.
  25. And what's nice is that I really don't think over a few years it would end up being prohibitively expensive to make the JAR pretty nice for the fans, either. It doesn't need replaced.
