GoZips86 Posted February 11, 2022 Report Posted February 11, 2022 I'm pretty excited to see about a new primary logo and what the new turf will be like for this offseason 1 Quote
GoZips86 Posted February 15, 2022 Report Posted February 15, 2022 When I spoke to ticket person last week to renew, he said some exciting stuff will be happening for season ticket holders this season. I think he mentioned some type of meet-and-greet with Moorhead or so. Not sure exactly any details with that or anything else. Does anyone else have any rumblings of what Zip fans can look forward to coming up in offseason and into season? (not just season ticket holders). Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted February 15, 2022 Report Posted February 15, 2022 April 30th is the latest Spring Game date I can remember? I'll take it. Quote
GoZips86 Posted February 15, 2022 Report Posted February 15, 2022 NICE!! Can't wait to be at stadium again! Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted February 15, 2022 Report Posted February 15, 2022 I would imagine the Spring Game is one of the most attended in program history. Quote

Is it a dumb question to ask if people tailgate for the Spring Game? I got some new tailgating stuff I'm really wanting to use LOL. 1 1 Quote

I think tailgating for a Spring Game would go a long way to show the excitement and enthusiasm for the program under Moorhead. 1 Quote
Spin Posted February 16, 2022 Report Posted February 16, 2022 Baseball is hosting Can't State at noon, it'll be interesting to see when the Spring Game is scheduled. Might be a heck of an afternoon... Quote

Zipmeister Posted June 18, 2022 Report Posted June 18, 2022 So you thought the Zips got better since last season. The following should be posted in the Zips locker room. https://athlonsports.com/college-football/mac-football-2022-predictions 1 Quote
Ham Posted June 18, 2022 Report Posted June 18, 2022 That assessment should be a reality check for our fans. There are a lot of factors that could move the needle in our direction, but our expectations should be solid improvement. 1 Quote

I guess he thinks it’ll take a much longer process to be competitive, despite the transfer portal changing the dynamic for rebuilds. Quote
Ham Posted June 18, 2022 Report Posted June 18, 2022 Until the bullets start to fly, all those transfers are unknowns. I do have a positive outlook for the season. I think our success rests on Iron's shoulders. Will he show the growth he needs, and run the O efficiently? I don't think we have a next man up; so he also needs to stay healthy. Quote

I don't think we have a next man up; so he also needs to stay healthy. Some transfers are unknowns, but have the potential to excel. A number of the transfers have had success elsewhere and there isn’t any reason to believe that won’t carry over. I am with you in as far as tempering expectations in winning the MAC this coming season, but I do expect this team to be competitive in every MAC game and win their fair share. I also agree the offense will heavily revolve around success of the QB position. Moorhead has been successful almost everywhere he’s been and seems to have a strong staff in place. It all aligns to a solid year and little chance of finishing last place. Edited June 18, 2022 by catdaddyp Quote
94zipgrad Posted June 18, 2022 Author Report Posted June 18, 2022 Looks just like last year when NIU didn’t win a game to MACC, this year it’s Akron turn to surprise with a new coach and a lot of new faces GO ZIPS 🏈 🏆 Quote
Ham Posted June 18, 2022 Report Posted June 18, 2022 @catdaddyp, I'm really with you. Were there "issues" with any of the transfers that could surface? Will a new situation bring out the best in them? That is where I think our new staff could shine. I do think we have a chance to sneak by Liberty and enter the MAC 2-2. With 4-4 in the MAC, we could go bowling! 1 Quote

I'm supposed to get a reality check from an article that has Bowling Green 3 spots ahead of us, whom Arth was able to beat multiple times? No thanks. Quote

We could close the gap by 2 touchdowns per game and still be losing. Nothing given, everything earned. That said, I'll take the over 2.5 wins at Draft Kings. Quote

No thanks. This was an outsider's assessment without the rose colored glasses. With all of the additions, coaching staff included, panning out, we could win the MAC. Potential is just that. For every Jojo, we have had a Bain. I'm not pessimistic about our coming season; I'm hopeful that we realize enough of that potential to not be embarrassed this fall. I think @Zippyrulz made a good bet. Three W's is a low bar, but that is where outsiders have us. Quote
