Hope you enjoyed the interview. For those that didn't get a chance to catch it, we should have it up on the website soon: espn970wfun.com Good luck tomorrow!

We'll definitely have him between 4-6 today. Nice to be able to put some focus on a local program. Some really good hoops teams get overlooked in this area and it's a shame. Ohio has great college basketball and NE Ohio is part of that!

If the Zips don't win the MAC Tourney, they're going to have to hope other conference tourneys hold true to seeding, at least those conferences with teams already assured of dancing. If lesser teams start stealing away auto-bids, it then wipes out some of the At Large bids. It happens every year and every year deserving teams lose out. But it's part of what makes college basketball and this time of year so great. Everyone has a shot at the Big Dance. Hopefully the Zips just take care of business, win the MAC and don't leave it up to the opinions of a committee. Many on that panel may not have even seen Akron play so it's safest to not leave your fate in their hands. Just win two this weekend and the only drama will be Sunday night waiting to find out what seed the Zips get!

I wanted to let you know that we're anticipating an interview with Zeke Marshall today. I have a good friend who is an alum and huge Zips fan (he was a Rowdy) and I know you guys have one of the best fan bases going (even Chuck Coles used to love you guys!), so figured you would be interested. It will air on ESPN 970 WFUN between 4-6pm. If you can't pick up the signal (970 AM), we're online at ESPN970WFUN.com. Also, does anyone know where we could find the old photo of Zeke wearing the Roo balloon animal hat? Pretty sure he had it on at one of the home games during the recruiting process. (I actually think I saw it on this board back in the day!) Good luck the rest of the way. I'm a Xavier guy so of course I have to pull for B. Walsh and the Zips!
