Zipmeister Posted December 9, 2018 Report Posted December 9, 2018 It's past time for Zeke to give up the charade and start doing what his education at the U prepared him to do, oh wait. Quote
Blue & Gold Posted December 9, 2018 Report Posted December 9, 2018 Zeke, by his own admission, didn't really focus on basketball till the summer before his senior year. Someone should have absolutely been busting his butt from the moment he stepped on campus (you can take a horse to water, I suppose). Now he's gonna have to get a real job. Quote

1981 grad Posted December 10, 2018 Report Posted December 10, 2018 Zeke was always a class act when he was at Akron. Who knows why he left the team. I hope that if he still wants to play professional basketball that he finds the right opportunity. If he decides to hang them up, I wish him nothing but the best of luck. 1 Quote

Zeke not only got his degree, he has actually done some freelance tech support even while pursuing his basketball career. Might be my favorite student athlete ever to come through Akron. Great guy and very smart. He prepared himself well for whatever follows, he will be just fine. I know your schtick is to try be the board smartass but you're way off base on this one. 1 Quote
Illini Zip Posted March 7, 2019 Report Posted March 7, 2019 I was curious what Malcolm Duvivier was up to these days. He's back up there in his home country of Canada playing ball. I thought he came in and did a fine job for US last year. http://www.halifaxhurricanes.ca/sports/mbkb/2018-19/bios/duvivier_malcolm_pi69 1 Quote

Let'sGoZips94 Posted March 7, 2019 Report Posted March 7, 2019 I really wish we had him for one more year. He and Cheese would be amazing, with LCJ as the change-of-pace guard. 1 Quote

kreed5120 Posted March 7, 2019 Report Posted March 7, 2019 I feel Ivey has a higher basketball IQ, but Cheese is a more explosive scorer. Both stuff the stat sheet. Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted March 7, 2019 Report Posted March 7, 2019 I think Cheese can be a 16 to 18 point average scorer. He's not the rebounder or defender Ivey is but he has a better handle. 1 Quote

At the rate at which he's grown as a player this year, you should be right about next year. 1 Quote
LZIp Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 "The team includes some recognizable names to area high school and college basketball fans. Former LeBron James St. Vincent-St. Mary teammates Dru Joyce III and Romeo Travis join other ex-University of Akron players Nick Harney and Demetrius Treadwell on the team." https://www.cantonrep.com/sports/20190701/michael-porrini-unites-mac-alums-for-basketball-tournament Quote

I wonder if they approached Zeke to protect the rim. They must be counting on getting a boatload of additional supporters cause the players appear to have only a $900,000 claim on the $2 million first prize. 1 Quote

1981 grad Posted July 2, 2019 Report Posted July 2, 2019 I am glad to see him playing basketball again. I was afraid that he had given it up. There is always room on a team for a shot blocker who can intimidate guards going to the basket. He needs to be a step quicker and a little more fluid on offense. I hope he keeps playing. I miss having 4 year players and watching them develop. 1 Quote
