The deflection on that inbounds pass completely threw off that final play and turned it into 1 on 5 basketball. They need to work to transitioning into an effective on the fly play sometimes rather than go to the timeout, especially against a good defensive team.

Amen.

Awful finish. Damn. Great game. Two solid mid-majors. The Zips will not play a better team the rest of the year.

Okay. Here's our chance.

I really wish Nate would get some confidence.

2 points and 5 boards for Enrique. Their focus is obviously on him.

I think St. B is as good as any team they've seen all year. For the second half, get more damn movement when the ball goes into the post and cut off the St. B offensive rebounds. They've committed 10 fouls to the Zips 5 and outrebounded the Zips 19-13. Need to be more aggressive.

Make up call there. What a bunch of ****.

Groce is better than me. That deserved him getting a technical defending his player.

Have to stop giving up offensive rebounds.

The Bonnies are solid and aggressive. Zips need to "punch back" a little.

They're doubling every time on a pass to the post. Need to have some outside shooting on kick outs today.

Anyone have a feeling as to when this will tip off?

Did you check with the Verizon store in Macedonia?

I want players who are better than the ones we've had for the last 5 years. I don't care where they come from. If they're not derelicts, can academically qualify and can play, I don't care whether they are a JUCO, D3 transfer, D1 P5 transfer or a walk on. The Zips are in no position to be picky.

On a positive note, they came up with the idea to get the students in the lower bowl and ummm, well.... No game night experience; music so loud you can't have a discussion during a timeout; they now charge for parking; the northeast entrance is closed; the courtside lounge is a colossal failure.... Thank goodness Groce is putting a good product on the court to keep the diehards coming.

I fixed it for you!

It gives us all a chance to rest up for our inevitable b!+ch!ng about MAC officiating!

Nice work. I wish we had a "guest poster" like you for every game.

Agreed, but I have little confidence in EMU doing anything of consequence.

...and his teammates should have allowed him to take the a$$ kicking he had coming. I hope the MAC takes some action.

It could be higher in the rafters.

I wonder if he has any eligibility left. We could sure use his guard play now! Maybe claim and extra COVID year?
