I'm getting a little aggravated with one guy dribbling on the perimeter while 4 guys watch.

Dawson played 5 minutes early and hasn't again seen the floor.

As an aside, the Progressive "Becoming your parents" commercials are the best.

Someone needs to tell Mr. Battle the half is only 15 minutes.

I think that may have been a message from Groce to the guys in the rotation ahead of him.

Jesus, burn that tape.

Prather in. Groce is pi$$ed.

They just gave up a 12-0 run to a 3-21 team. Yikes.

Yep, they seldom seem ready on the catch.

Rough day for both of the rims in Buffalo today.

Similar to the free throw percentage today.

Not moving well on offense today. Lots of just standing on the perimeter.

They are last in MAC field goal percentage at .415 so I'd say all of their shooting is not good!

No vest for Groce today. 🤔

Hard to believe Buffalo's fall in MAC basketball. Seems like just yesterday the Zips were facing guys like Justin Moss, CJ Massinburg, Jayvon Graves and many other top notch MAC players for the Bulls. How quickly things can go south (even for a team from the great white North). I always enjoyed the rivalry games so I hope they are on their way back.

I heard there's a Zips game tomorrow against Buffalo. Anyone have any info on this?

Nothing like a tournament win or two to "persuade" a kid to rethink his choices.

Conversation in the workplace today- Co-worker: "So, who do you think gets the OSU job?" Clarkie: "Hmmmm, Oats? Miller? Paris? Kelsey?" Co-worker: "What about Shaka Smart?" Clarkie: "**** Shaka Smart that arrogant little ******** **********!" I'm still having issues.

It sounds like Lamont Paris, a former UA KD assistant and current South Carolina head coach, is in the rumor mill for the OSU job.

The University is considering outsourcing the management of student housing, much as they have parking and is soliciting proposals. Here's a very minimal and incomplete story from the Beacon/Ohio.com- https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/news/education/2024/02/13/university-of-akron-looking-to-outsource-management-of-student-housing-parking-revenue-higher-ed/72586213007/

Despite his experience here, I think Arth is fairly well regarded in NFL circles. Some guys are great position coaches/assistants but don't have the administrative and motivational skills to be an effective head coach. Maybe he's one of those guys.

Amen. How many easy layups and dunks did they get with simple cuts to the hoop? It was maddening.

Average MAC attendance last year- 2804. Average ACC attendance- 9949. Akron average- 2016. Wake average- 8331.
