No one complains cause hardly anyone attends. they are all watching the OSU game somewhere. i have always said that i'll never understand why akron or other MAC schools may try to schedule the same time as OSU is on and at home. Their job is to fill up their stadium for their game. You if gave a choice of attending an Akron home game or watching an OSU game that's on at the same time....OSU will win. and friday night is reserved for HS football and to a certain degree Saturday night is as well...with all the catholic schools. i would try odd times. like a noon, or 5pm, 6pm for football.
with basketball...everyone is in the same pond(MAC, Horizon) we don't have to compete with a OSU basketball, or Xavier, UC. Simple solution is just win and you'll get back to primetime! OH and schedule a home & home with UC.....hell they played OSU this year at home..so in some circles of hell....its freezing!
TRU DAT!!! i see that marketing guy with the Akron basketball website...but he is always walking around. I think he walked down the stairs back to his seat at least 7X during the marshall game! Oh. and on FB...the Tennessee St. game was slated for midnight..a few hours later it was changed to 7pm. Really all the saturday games are 2pm? sorry...but that sucks, i could see a handful..especially for Non conf. but not for MACtion!!!
I see where Louisville under first year HC Chris Mack will host both Kent St & Robert Morris. Just wondering what our non-conference schedule will look like other than the Cayman trip.
Didn’t want to start a new thread but Scott Cross from UT-Arlington was fired as the Head basketball coach along with his staff. Last 2 seasons it said his conference record was sub .500. Getting tough to keep your job even if you have some successful post season runs.
Butler, OSU. Duke, Lipscomb, Coppin St., West Texas St-San Antonio, Maui University, all are coming to JAR
marshall, maryland, UIC, UCLA, Lamar, Louisville, Uni Alaska-Fairbanks all on the road
