I have Zips/Bobcats on one screen and Beterbiev/Bivol II on another.

Now they are saying 6:04 on the ESPN app.

Last year's thread.

They are prohibited from using it under the ADA due to the PTSD you suffer from the cannon in years past.

Good point. Bud's checkbook is certainly an advantage, but that view (often voiced by residents of Brimfield and environs) fails to recognize their own failures in building their own programs. It also doesn't recognize the other factors where the Zips have an advantage- better coaching...tradition of winning and championships...nice facilities (other than the JAR)...

Weird year for the MAC, across the board. There's no single player who is dominating the conference. Heck, the leading scorer (Jones from NIU) is averaging only 17 a game. Nate is 16th in the MAC in scoring, 24th in rebounding, 7th in assists and 3rd in steals. Solid and multi-dimensional but nothing that jumps out. If the voters look at who's the best player on the best team he probably has a chance.

He kind of lost the ability to deny his involvement when he put the package in the stove. 🤦‍♂️

I'm looking forward to Mahaffey next year as I've heard he was very good up until he hurt his knee.

Historically, basketball has been reluctant to retire numbers as the tradition is to not have a number over 55, as those make it more difficult for an official to signal to the scorer's table with two hands. With only 55 numbers, you could eliminate a decent portion of the numbers over time as you retired them. As a result, the jersey goes in the rafters rather than getting retired.

No Matthew Wilson bobblehead prizes?

Is there a jugs gun for basketballs? If there was I'd like to see him catch 500 passes a day! His hands are a little iffy at times.

Just like the good old days where you saw consistent player development over 4 years.

Amen. Just plain clueless.

You could really see the growth of his game and Groce's corresponding confidence in him as the season would down last year and through the tournament as he was consistently in during the crucial points at the end of games.

The Zips take the nation's longest win streak into Athens Saturday night to face the 14-12/8-5 Bobcats. The Bobcats are coming off of a two point win over CMU. 6'8" senior forward AJ Clayton continues to lead Bobcat scoring at 14.3 ppg while being second in rebounding at 5.4 rpg. Sophomore guard AJ Brown and junior guard Jackson Paveletzke each score 13.2 ppg, with Paveletzke leading in assists at 5 apg.

Another player deserving some praise tonight is Amani. The Zips switched a lot on screens tonight putting him on smaller faster guards and he did a great job.

I think there's enough tape out there now too to enable the competition to craft a game plan. They also now aren't sneaking up on anybody and they're getting every team's best efforts. I'll give the NIU coach credit for getting his kids to play hard despite their tough stretch.

Lots of good with Shammah on the floor tonight.

1 starter in for this run.

Now Zips, wake the hell up.

Enrique got called up to the Pacers and chartered into Fulton in the first half to get here.

Worst stretch of play in the MAC thus far this season.

Great start. Awful since.

Best crowd of the year so far.

Sportsbook in the JAR! (Which would be illegal). I don't like that there's betting on college sports but I do like doing it. I'm a very small time better. A $10 bet is a big one for me. I enjoy looking at the lines as it gives a sense of what the books think the public sentiment is on a game.
