Pardon me for asking, but are academics a possible issue here? Dawson spent 4 years in high school and was captain of the first team AAA All State team his senior year and then he reclassified to go to a post-graduate program.

Zips lose in first round of WBI at Tennessee Tech, 73-59. That's a wrap.

Shouldn't that column be titled "Recent MACtivity"?

Just for the record, Roscoe is a sophomore according to GoZips.com. Played at Panola College 2017-18. Also committed to Southern Illinois at one point. I like his skills, but he has bounced around a bit.

KD also recruited 8 freshmen for this year, almost all of whom went to one high school for their career from what I can tell. That is how you build a program instead of dominating it with multiple high school, prep/basketball academy, other school commits, junior college etc. guys. You plug in the holes with those transfer guys. I'm not sure how stable a roster will ever be when the kids you bring in are already used to moving around so much. The only traditional freshman Groce has brought in the last two years is Ali. Heck, we just lost two guys who were loyal to the program and stuck around after the coaching change. Plus we lost 3 others during the year. I'm not sure how this compares to all the other schools, but things need to settle down real soon.

Maybe Geno will take over at Stony Brook. It may be a little harder to root as much against OU now, maybe.

Yeah, wouldn't want to watch that. Geez, MAC.

Nice TV package MAC. Fox College Sports for the second semifinal game? Can't even get space on FS2?

Lex Luthor?

OK, it looks like I was misinformed. Ohio Lottery BOGO promotion is on. Geez. https://mobile.twitter.com/OHLottery/status/1104426793304555521?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet

The Bracket. Tough first round matchup for the Zips.

The Bracket:

How do you not foul them after inbounds pass with 20 secs left?

I've learned to stay away. Zips men have never won or played well when I've gone over there.

I called The Q and they said they were not doing the Ohio Lottery promotion this year. The Ohio Lottery office said the same. I had also called and emailed the MAC first, but have not heard back. They were unsure. Please let me now if anyone has definite confirming information (i.e. Tweet, press release, etc.) to the contrary. I was really hoping to take advantage of the promotion this year. (Maybe 92.3 is running an old commercial?)

Women will host, too. Likely to play EMU, who they are 0-2 against this year.

Schedule on Gozips.com says CBS Sports Network.

This just in:

The latest. Zips women 7-9, sit at #8 just like the men.

The latest:

Thanks, I don't listen to 92.3 much. Hopefully more details will be posted soon. I know most of how they handled it before, but sometimes things change.

I called the MAC, but got the voicemail of the person they forwarded me to. Rather than play phone tag, I sent the guy an email. I'll let you guys know if/when they respond.

Has anybody seen anything about an Ohio Lottery/MAC Tournament 2 for 1 deal yet this year? It always seems to be hard to find.

FYI, could be a doubleheader first round at the JAR.
