    That's quite an assessment of a team playing without at least 21 of its players.

    I sat next to Barry McCockenner.

    Yep, losing the MAC PLAYER OF THE YEAR and a SECOND TEAM ALL- MAC PLAYER are inconsequential losses.

    It's not depression, it's REALITY. I'll still show up and root for the Zips and I am confident he'll get decent players, but this is clearly a year of rebuilding and transition.
  5. clarkwgriswold
    I think it is very safe to assume the Zips are in for a down year. They lost the 3 players with MAC honors, the starting point guard, their 6th man, three reserves expected to contribute substantially and 4 starters. I hope for big things from Groce, but being a miracle worker is not one of them.

    I hope to hell we didn't lose Adrian, Coppin State and Radford!

    Are you suggesting that academics should be the priority of a university rather than sports? Blaspheme!

    $5 million buys a much nicer native American museum than it does an arena.

    Lord, there's way too much hostility on this forum for what's supposed to be a civil discussion of a GAME.

    Dunn Martin got 5 rebounds in a pickup game last week. Maybe we should have been playing him down low more.

    No, I get your point. I agree KD shouldn't be poaching UA players. My point is that the whole scholarship obligation thing is a two way street. On another topic, let's say KD didn't initiate the contact. He has an awful team he needs to rebuild, knows and likes a kid, and the kid is calling. Should he hang up the phone?
  12. clarkwgriswold
    ...and it is a renewable one year contract that either party can terminate...
  13. clarkwgriswold
    Amen Skip. I wasn't happy when I heard about Antino breezing through the presser, but he's a kid who's had no controversy in 3 years at UA and as I recall is on schedule to graduate early. Getting to class or another obligation is just as plausible an explanation as disrespect at this point.

    Let's also not forget, these are 18 to 22 year old boys. Let's all hope we're not judged on some of the quick decisions we made at that age.

    I was always far more concerned with Big Dog playing defense at the three point line than I was with him with the ball at the three point line!
  16. clarkwgriswold
    It seems like just yesterday that we were discussing how deep we were at guard but that we needed some bigs to step up next year. How quickly things can change.
  17. clarkwgriswold
    Fair enough Wadszip. I see Ivey at he 2 and Utomi at the 3, or vise versa. I think there may be two starters out there that are not currently enrolled at UA.
  18. clarkwgriswold
    I like Ivey, but he's not a ballhandler. He dribbles way too high without much finesse or control. Somewhere there's a JUCO kid that can hold that down.

    I've always been a "pro-transfer guy" in cases where a coach leaves a school as that player-coach relationship is often what drew a kid to a school in the fist place. Now that it's "my school", I am good and pi$$ed off that these kids are jumping ship, especially those jumping to Duquesne, but I'd be a hypocrite if I pitched a fit about it. Good luck to them. Time to move on.
  20. clarkwgriswold
    I wonder if these kids ever stop to wonder why they weren't offered by any A-10 schools coming out of high school.
  21. clarkwgriswold
    Good Lord. Would someone "in the know" please private message me and let me out of my misery?
  22. clarkwgriswold
    Oh, I've seen it and I clearly understand people talk with their money. I just don't understand it in THIS situation.
  23. clarkwgriswold
    I get the disappointment with losing him, but I don't get the type of anger that results in you withdrawing your money. Maybe if I knew some of the behind the scenes stuff I'd get it.
  24. clarkwgriswold
    He was the HIGHEST PAID COACH WITH THE HIGHEST BASKETBALL BUDGET IN THE MAC. Other than get him into another conference or retroactively make his dad an alum, what else could they do for him? They need to realize that they are UA Alums, not University of Dambrot alums.
  25. clarkwgriswold
    Someone has finally admitted Big Dog weighs 3 bills! Good luck to him. It should give him a chance to perform against strong competition.
