Nice thought, but not sure they'd beat Carmelo's Syracuse squad.

It can be a doubleheader if you want to wait 3 hours between games!

The Broncos are a dismal 1-10 in their last 11. Somehow, they convincingly beat Ball State by ten on February 18th.

The 7-21/3-12 WMU Broncos come to the JAR Saturday night for a 7:00 tilt against our Zips. The game was originally scheduled for 4:30. Lamar Norman Jr. continues to lead the Broncos at 17.7 ppg. They are coming off of a loss at Ypsilanti. Sorry for the short preview. Home with Covid. If there's anything worse than watching that Toledo game it was watching that game while sick!

They stop making popcorn at half.

Glad to hear someone say it out loud. Get Enrique and X out of there.

Toledo must put up banners for 2nd and 3rd place finishes, seeing all of those banners in their rafters.

It bears to reason that if theire smalls can take advantage of our bigs in their offense that our bigs should be able to take advantage of their smalls when the Zips are on offense. Frustrating.

...and then a dumb foul on a 3. Yikes. Give him a seat next to Evan. Let's get through this one with no injuries or further embarrassment.

I respectfully disagree with respect to the Zips defense against their offense. Their starting lineup is essentially four guards and a stretch three (Shumate) All too often that results in bad switches, poor closeouts and open shooters. Sammy and Enrique cannot cover their players on the perimeter. I hoped Nate had better quickness to made up for Sammy's lack of quickness but I am not seeing it. I do agree that some shooting would go a long way.

Down 18. They have bigger issues than the refs.

Groce a little perturbed with Nate there.

Well... that went to **** in a big hurry.

Too many damn turnovers.

Castaneda on Shumate? Toledo has the loudest rims in the league.

Ulrich and Easterling seem to be stating Melissa's case.

I guess there's plenty of blame to go around, including Guthrie, but it seems like informing the coach that she wasn't going to be renewed was a better option than leaving her hanging. College sports is a cruel world. Win and you stay or move on to a more prestigious job or lose and go home. That's the cold hard reality of that world. I feel bad for Coach Jackson and wish her well. With any luck, maybe she'll get a chance someday to prove UA wrong.

Exactly! It's refreshing to see an adult conversation, even between people who may not see eye to eye. Thoughtful conversations are far too few on this kind of forum.

It was a hell of a first post. LOL.

I hope that the staff has figured out a way to defend what's essentially a 4 guard lineup for Toledo. Nate is certainly more capable of guarding one of those guys that Sammy, so that should help. There were just too many instances of Enrique having to defend a guard on the perimeter in the fist game and Toledo took advantage of it.

It does have the sound of an angry parent or staff member.

The Zips head to Toledo Tuesday night to seek revenge against the first place Rockets. The Rockets are 21-6/12-2 and on an 11 game win streak. Their last loss was in Brimfield on January 10th. RayJ Dennis is now the Zips leading scorer at 19.1 ppg. JT Shumate is now up to 17.1 ppg will Cetric Milliner is scoring 15.3 ppg. They remain first in the MAC in scoring at 84.7 ppg, a whopping 6 points more than the second place squad (Ohio). They are 9th in defense. Here's hoping the rediscovered Zips defense can overcome the Rockets high scoring offense. The Rockets beat the Zips by 10 at the JAR on February 7th.

Apparently, the administration got outrebounded by 11 boards and turned the ball over 18 times. In 40 minutes, the Zips had 13 field goals and 18 turnovers. They were outscored by 30 in the paint.

Won more with much less talent. EMU has some talent, but between Emoni's selfish game and Heath's ineptitude, they've become a laughingstock.

If I as Emoni, I'd prefer to be judged on my high school reputation than my recent MAC play. Keep me off of TV and burn those tapes.
