clarkwgriswold Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 Here's hoping the Zips can rebound from that abysmal showing against Fordham in the opener. In hindsight, I should have just started a Gulf Case Showcase thread for all three games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkwgriswold Posted November 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 App State comes in at 2-3 with wins over ETSU and William Peace (new one to me) and losses to Charlotte, Iona and Delaware. They are led by 6-3 senior guard Adrian Delph who scores 19.6 ppg. Last year they were 17-12 overall and 7-8 in the Sun Belt Conference. They were projected to finish fourth in the conference coaches preseason poll out of 12 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoZips88 Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 I have not been able to corroborate that our Zips and the Estero (High School) Wildcats held a secret Huggins-esque midnight scrimmage as prep for the App State game later today.

Z.I.P. Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 I hate to get ahead of my team -- not knowing how many eggs will be layed -- but what does the bracket look like? Could we play Vermont for fifth if both win today? Vermont's beating Evansville 39-33 with about 10 minutes remaining. I had originally visioned an Akron-Vermont championship game, and the matchup may still be possible. Both teams were top-100 RPI coming into this, but were upset on Monday. Excellent matchup if it occurs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips88 Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 Not sure if FloSports is doing this intentionally to try to hold viewers through warm-ups but both baskets are JUST off-camera. Based on form, it looked like the Zips were hitting at about a 71% clip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoyalZIP Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 KJ Walton should be a commanding force on offense, but he remains invisible. Not good. If the Zips can't even get easy looks, they're in trouble again. He needs to be this group's Tyler Cheese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalZIP Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 This team is so frustrating all of a sudden. I don't know if I'll ever understand Trimble. He's such a random shooter. Missed dunk by Aziz. Consecutive bad defensive possessions. What the hell happened in Columbus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowdyZip Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 I just don't think this team has enough offense. It surprises me a little that, even though they're small-school guys, that neither of the freshman guards could provide a spark on offense. As of now, we're very hard to watch.
