I got to talk to him at the ice cream social before the season and came away very impressed with how articulate he was and seemed very genuine in his conversations. I'm with you. I don't think he's a bad kid. He just let his emotion get the best of him. Hopefully, a lesson going forward. Quote

Hopefully, his buds will play for him on Saturday. Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted February 28, 2020 Report Posted February 28, 2020 Cheese has represented Akron very well during his couple years here. One mistake in the heat of the moment in one of the biggest games of the season with a lot of frustration that didn't result in anyone getting hurt. Fair & just punishment, but not fair to start questioning who he is as a person and member of this program. As previously stated, hopefully the team plays for him, and I fully expect to see him cheering from the bench as loud as anyone in the arena. 1 Quote
kreed5120 Posted February 28, 2020 Report Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) Any scenario of Akron winning a head-to-head tie-breaker against BGSU would require Akron winning this game. Akron's only chance of winning the 1 seed with a loss tomorrow would be to win the last two games and for BGSU to lose its last 3 remaining games. Edited February 28, 2020 by kreed5120 1 Quote
LoyalZIP Posted February 28, 2020 Report Posted February 28, 2020 Adversity doesn't build character--adversity REVEALS character. I'm looking forward to seeing what the players and coaching staff are made of in the coming two weeks. Quote

Apart from Reece twisting his ankle in DeKalb, the Zips had a full team for each game until this snafu. Guys didn't show their signature poise that Groce always praises. They just need to see some shots go in. Quote

Z.I.P. Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 Pretty strange frankly that the Canucks are only 1 point favorites in this one...Maybe Vegas knows something? ? Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 I really hope O Canada didn't throw off our pre-game routine. Quote
AkronAlumnus Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 This is the lineup I wanted to see. Quote
LoyalZIP Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 Reece has been invisible on offense Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 I'm already annoyed. Another slow start, questionable (at best) calls, these announcers suck, and a guy that is rocking a mop for a hairdoo just hit a deep 3 on us. Did Groce not warn the team about eating too much Canadian Bacon this morning? Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 I'm really impressed with Dawson's rebounding. Great job by the team to stay composed and keep this game close so far. I like the aggressive drives to the basket. Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) X FOUND THE OCEAN! HE HIT THE BROAD SIDE OF THE BARN! Edited February 29, 2020 by Let'sGoZips94 Quote

1981 grad Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 Williams hit a 3!!!! It looks like he put a lot more arc on the shot. I like the way he is driving to the basket and passing on the long range shot. Quote
LoyalZIP Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 POP THE BUBBLY!!! X MADE A 3!!!!! Quote
LoyalZIP Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 Ali could be really nice one day, he's got the handles and his shot is there, if we were deeper I think he would've redshirted this year. Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted February 29, 2020 Report Posted February 29, 2020 What a nice defensive play by Ali. Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted February 29, 2020 Author Report Posted February 29, 2020 4 on Riak. That's not going to make it any easier. Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted February 29, 2020 Author Report Posted February 29, 2020 Tribble and Ali growing up today. Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted February 29, 2020 Author Report Posted February 29, 2020 Reece and Tribble are just brutal from the free throw line. Quote
