I can confirm that Skip is an equal opportunity griper.

I'm even more concerned about Virshon after the BG game.

I am proud to profess I was dead @$$ wrong on this one!

Nice job Zips. The monkey is off their backs.

Ummmm Zips, the little white guy can shoot. Please cover Jimmy Chitwood.

It was gbeautiful.

I think the Earl is Rob Senderoff in a blond wig.

OK, Lauren has responded like a champ. She has rescued the evening, absent a second half wardrobe malfunction.

....as the Early of Sandwich, I dub thee the sandwich...."

So I cut to the PCCC/OU game to check the score and I get the freaking Earl of Sandwich and causal day at Buckingham Palace. Never will I get Geico insurance.

I haven't seen this Earl of Sandwich commercial nearly enough... Casual Fridays at Buckingham Palace...

Down to Stacy on the floor for her 1st half analysis- "uhhhhhhh....shooting......practice.....shoot....ummmm, back to you Bob."

Poor young lady. Curious to see if they go back to her. That was a little rough!

Maybe trying to offset their size early is all I can figure. If it was for an injury, you wouldn't bring him in only 1:09 into the game.

1:09 taken to get to K-lac's first foul and in come Utomi.

Utomi not starting!?

Ditto on Cotton. I love the kid's play and moxie, but there's something up there that I can't put my finger on. He had his tiff with Ivey and a DNP shortly thereafter followed by his recent one game suspension. It makes me most uneasy as to his future.

I think they can..I think they can...I think they can...

I think it would be great if Demajeo was Wiggins middle name and his first name was Jeaux. Jeaux Demajeo Wiggins.

I'm afraid the Zips are going to be without a road win this year. I think Wiggins lights it up tonight as the Zips have nothing standing in his way down low. You'll recall that the earlier game against BG was a last second win with Sayles having his best game of the year before suffering what now looks like may be a season ending injury.

I don't think we should get too far ahead of ourselves with Riak. He averaged 3.1 ppg and 5.2 rpg in 21 minutes as a sophomore at ECU. He's also quite thin. I think he'll be a contributor, but not an offensive force. I see him and Poke being somewhat similar, so you'd need 3 very good offensive players in with them if they were on the floor together. I think Sayles has the ability to become the Zips number one big man.

I think we all wish the best for K-lac. I moved from my regular spot at the JAR to a spot where I can watch the bench and he's always engaged and supportive of his teammates. He also just seems like a good kid, so he's easy to root for. He's been thrust into a very tough position this year and could end up as the number 4 big man on the team next year. If someday he develops into a 12 to 15 minute, 6 to 8 point 4-5 rebound guy, I'll be perfectly content with that.

The Zips head to BG Tuesday night to face the 16-11 Falcons. The Falcons are 7-7 in the MAC. 6-4 freshman guard Justin Turner leads the Falcons in scoring at 15.4 ppg. 6-10 junior forward Demajio Wiggins leads rebounding at 9.7 rpg. Sorry for the quick summary, I am out of town.

Apparently, that's the nature of the athlete they recruit and attract.
