Z.I.P. Posted October 26, 2013 Report Posted October 26, 2013 derp. did not realize creighton moved to the big east. Dont know why I thought VCU was still in the colonial All this shows is the absuurdity of the term "mid-major". I would NEVER consider Gonzaga a MM. But if they are, then Butler and VCU gotta be there too! Just changing leagues shouldn't automatically change that. I'm looking forward to seeing a former final-four mid-major, George Mason in a couple months. They still ARE a mid-major, aren't they? Quote

GoZips Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Anyone have a link to the scrimmage from Friday? I heard it is on hudl, but i am not paying hundreds of dollars to see a scrimmage. I Speak, Monday's scrimmage was far more intense and telling. Seems everyone was tippy-toed over the new rules. Monday was set to be six eight minute quarters with player combinations changing every quarter. One interesting quarter pitted the four freshmen and Nyles Evans against the "varsity". The veteran players won by two points. It was quite contested. The new rules did not bother most of the players. A tad dicey out on the point on defense since the Akron scheme has long been to deny the point guard bringing the ball up court. A lot of in-out ball movement shown. Back door cuts that worked. Way too many turnovers, as usual. Surprised by how well the Freshmen played defense. A good omen for the future. Do not discount Deji. He has been playing well. We can get an excellent evaluation of this edition of the Zips from the first two games. Bluffton not so much. But, Coastal Carolina will test the Zips. Quote

Part of Friday's scrimmage pitted the newbies plus Kretzer against the "Varsity." The newbies hung right in there. IIRC maybe lost the quarter by 3 points. Quote
Derrt Posted October 29, 2013 Report Posted October 29, 2013 Thanks for the update. Will the game on Friday be on the MAC website? Quote
