They sound so surprised the Xeyrius is a perimeter player and not a post up player. Amen, that jumped out at me too. As a condition of getting the mike, you should at least have to do some research on the opposing team. Looks like X is going to get some looks tonight. Hopefully, he'll have a big game. I understand friends and family there. Quote

Now they indicate he is 3rd on the team in 3 pointers. hmmmm...... Quote

LZIp Posted January 22, 2020 Report Posted January 22, 2020 Man..Dawson looks like a player who just joined the team a month ago. 1 Quote
zipsrule Posted January 22, 2020 Report Posted January 22, 2020 Reece just called for a moving screen. Looked like a good screen to me. What am I missing? Quote

Started with that call on Riak. Then a total flop from Miami when Tribble had his forearm extended. Want to keep Miami in it I guess Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted January 22, 2020 Author Report Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) This commercial with the brothers, "I only got cancer so you could tell people you shaved your head..." has become my second to least favorite to the freaking "Earl of Sandwich" commercial we were incessantly subjected to a couple of years ago.

They are certainly not the only bigs around with less than a stellar touch. Both are competent players and an asset to the Zips. Now this dude had some bad hands yet he adapted quite nicely. Yeah but he couldn't dribble the ball at all and he had some absolutely horrific and gruesome fouls. ? 1 Quote

monrowe Posted January 22, 2020 Report Posted January 22, 2020 Only four plays have scored for the zips wow! Quote
The Hip Zip Posted January 22, 2020 Report Posted January 22, 2020 Fearless 2nd half prediction: All players on both teams foul out with several minutes remaining. The 3 overzealous officials decide the outcome with a game of 3 way scuttle. Love the defense so far but the whistles have taken over the game. No flow at all 1 Quote
LoyalZIP Posted January 22, 2020 Report Posted January 22, 2020 It was risky to burn Dawson's red shirt and I was hoping he would be a bit further along by now. He's put in some decent minutes early tonight which is good, I'd just like to see his impact a little more. Also, we're still waiting on the "Tribble game" where the MAC learns his name for the first time. I was expecting that at some point by now too. Not a big deal by any means, but going into March it would certainly give me some peace of mind knowing that there's some legitimate depth in case of emergency. Mind's just wandering. Nice half.

clarkwgriswold Posted January 22, 2020 Author Report Posted January 22, 2020 As I recall, Owens came to Miami at the same time Groce came to UA. He decided to build around freshmen and had a big first recruiting class. I'd think they should be hitting their stride now. Quote
ZipsVoice Posted January 22, 2020 Report Posted January 22, 2020 Whew! What a half! Could have been even better, but who am I to quibble with this lead? Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted January 22, 2020 Author Report Posted January 22, 2020 I think Miami was in the one and one before the first TV timeout. Quote

I was thinking something similar. Hopefully we can maintain/build on the lead. I would like a lineup the last 5 or so minutes of something like Tribble, Dawson, Ali, Reece, and Sayles. Force them to develop! 1 Quote

NOT risky. Necessary. Else he could have transferred out and played next year. Quote
