Is Akron one of the few areas that game is being televised?

 

Also, this is a practice and should be free to attend.

Can't wait!

Can anyone explain to me why we are playing this game:

 

Sunday afternoon when the Browns are playing.

A division 2 team that has not won a game.

It is listed as an exhibition game on their website.  What does that mean?

 

Can anyone explain to me how this game does anything to improve the Zips.

Zips who rarely get to leave the bench for anything other than time outs may get valuable real game experience.

Anyone have a bad feeling about this one?

Tavari in starting lineup. 

[clarkwgriswold]

4 guards starting, no hunter. 

[NWAkron]

Not a bad crowd considering.   I think Zips can win this.

[NWAkron]

These guys need to work thru the shooting slump

I hope Kobe & Nate & especially Sammy & Hankerson get a ton of pt today & shoot, shoot, shoot. We need Sammy & Hank to start hitting.

[NWAkron]

X is missing as well.  Lyles makes his FTs.  That's something

Official timeout because a kid in a floor seat spilled his popcorn on the floor.

Flagrant tackle on the Muskie.

Highlight of the game.

For those of us watching Kevin Stefanski continue to fail as a head coach and not have his team ready to play, how did we look scoring the 34? Who is standing out?

Tavari on defense. X getting his range.  Nate Johnson lackadaisical out there.  Kobe hustles on defense.  Hankerson and Tribble get playing time

A team consisting of Evan Wilson and the managers would be better competition.
