Captain Kangaroo Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 Ziegler and Stainrook 1st Teamers? I bet the 2nd Team would beat the 1st Team in: 9-out-of-10. Quote
Hilltopper Posted March 5, 2012 Author Report Posted March 5, 2012 4 guys from WMU in the top 20! With talent like that, they should have run the table. Quote
johnnyzip84 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 After seeing this, I don’t expect ANY Zip tailgaters to make collegesportsmadness’ 1st team all-MAC in 2012 The Zips depth and uniform talent distribution will always hurt them in polls like this, but this one is particularly absurd. OU didn’t exactly get much respect either, for much the same reasons. Quote
skip-zip Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 Have I missed something? When did Jarrod Jones suddenly have a "G" listed as his position? I figured that Keith's biggest competition for Coach of Year was Reggie. And I am happy that Zeke has finally made enough of a name for himself to get recognized among some of the better front line players. Shocked to see Justin Green on the 3rd team. I love Pearson, and I'm happy to see that he pushed Cooper to the 2nd team in his Senior year. Quote
Class of 82 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 This is so bad... even funny in a tragically pathetic sort of way. Akron goes 13-3 with only one of the conference's 20 "best players" and it's coach is not COY! Quote
RootforRoo44 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 The coach of the year snub is understandable but the first team picks? LOL Quote
bobbyake Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/collegesportsmadness.com The site has very poor viewership Global Rank - 734,435 US Rank - 217,049 Quote

Zips Nation is ranked 162,738 by the same site. P.S. Don't tell the moderators, but http://webhost-a.com/www/zipsnation.org claims the Nation is worth $70,520 and could generate $736/month in profits. That's some decent change! Quote
The Hip Zip Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 T Ziegler has to be the most over hyped player in the history of the MAC.. He and McCallum up at Detroit were considered to be two major additions to the MAC and Horizon. McCallum is twice the player that Ziegler is. In fact, Trey is almost as bad a player as his dad Ernie Ziegler is a coach. If you have some time, check out T Ziegler's shooting % over his first two years.He improved this year but he's still a joke. I'm hoping that we get two more years out of that pair up at CMU. I would think that Ernie has to be on the hot seat as well as Hawkins up at Western. He does have some talent there and Western has certainly under achieved this year. We were fortunate to get out of KZoo with a W Quote
akronzips71 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 I think the third team would beat the first team. Watt and Pearson were super this year, can't fault that. But Greene and Porrini third team? No way. Anyway, all that really counts is who wins. 13-3 MAC CHAMPIONS Quote

I sold a domain name that I owned for $10,000 a couple of years ago. It was for a project that never quite got off the ground. I paid $15 for it. Nice little return on my investment. Quote
RootforRoo44 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 EMU's Murphy, UB's Watt receive Top MAC Honors....i sh*t you not. Quote
MDZip Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 EMU's Murphy, UB's Watt receive Top MAC Honors....i sh*t you not. Watt I can buy, but Murphy, no way. Beat Keith by two votes, 12-10. Witherspoon had two and deserved it more than Murphy did. The only reason EMU had a "good" record was because they play in the West. Not even a top four seed in the tournament and went 2-4 against the East. Ridiculous. Quote

Ridiculous. exactly...Watt was actually my pick but Witherspoon and Dambrot were who i thought it would come down to...not Murphy. Seriously WTF? The guy's team limped into the MAC Tourney and got to play the MAC West for 10 of his games. I'd say his team underperformed! Quote
Dave in Green Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 We don't need no steenkin' poll to know which team was best in the MAC or which team had the strongest bench. In fact, it may have been the Zips' strong bench that kept individual players out of the top 20. KD teams are always teams, not collections of star players. As far as Zeke vs. Stainbrook, they were fairly close on stats, with Stainbrook having a small edge on offense and Zeke having a bigger edge on defense. Beyond stats, Zeke is obviously more of a game changer than Stainbrook. Zeke vs. Stainbrook Stats Quote

Beyond stats, Zeke is obviously more of a game changer than Stainbrook. Zeke vs. Stainbrook Stats Stainbrook's offensive stats might be a little better than Zeke's (but again with ten games against the West, Zeke got ten against the East), but I bet you could take a poll of MAC coaches, 11 of the 12 would take Zeke on their team over Stainbrook (one coach would be an idiot and it probably wouldn't even be Hawkins).

Well, if they wanted to grant the COY honors based on improvement, Toledo's coach, Todd K clearly outperformed Murphy. Quote
