Z-Pouch Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 Preseason RankingLet's hope that the BB team handles their preseason hype a little better then the football team. A lot of media are jumping on the Zips wagon with high expectations past the MAC. Everyone is looking for the next George Mason and you can expect Akron to be mentioned over and over in preseason pubs. Quote
ZipAnalyst Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 The are major differences between the basketball program and the football program.KD has shown he is a "value added" coach; JD has not (he may in time - he has one more year from me)..The hoopsters win games they should win; not necessarily with the gridiiron folks.The roundballers earned their way to their success last year; the footballers backed into the MACC and lucked out at the end despite being out played nearly the whole game.KD embraces the challenge of high expectations; not so with JD (it could be that he recognizes he does not yet have the talent in place).I love high expectations and so should all Zip fans!

sgm405 Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 Count me in as being VERY excited for this season. You have to think...a team that won 23 games has ADDED two starters, and good ones at that.It's going to be a special year folks... Quote
Balki Bartokomous Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 with the cupcakes on this years schedule and the improved roster. is it possible we go from our first 20 win season since J. R. Buchtel himself was walking around campus, to a 30 win season? Quote
