Was that legal in basketball world? LCJ deliberately fell in order to give space to X. Notice the people standing by the door. Quote
Blue & Gold Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 Correct me if I'm wrong, but IIRC X couldn't throw it in the ocean that game until the game winner. Right? I had a few tickets so took some friends to that game. I never liked taking ppl to the EMU games because their zone D always slowed the game down & made for some low scoring, boring play and that day was no different... until the very end. The guys I took to that game still talk about it. 2 Quote

zipsrowdy88 Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 The Aziz stats bum me out. MAN we could use him. Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted January 13, 2023 Author Report Posted January 13, 2023 I was unexpectedly called out of town so I won't be able to go tonight. It's up to the rest of you to take my place in yelling valuable insights to Groce! 2 Quote
zipsrowdy88 Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 I am hearing rumors of a huge student turnout. With how they have been all year I would imagine that Emoni Bates is going to hear some very mean things yelled his way. Those kids are BRUTAL when they get opportunities. 3 Quote
zipsrowdy88 Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 LOL, yeah tonight is going to be nuts. 2 Quote
Reslife4Life Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 This game could be the litmus test in terms of attendance for the rest of the year. There has been a good amount of publicity surrounding this game, hopefully people are noticing and we get a good crowd tonight! Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 I heard Stan Heath sends Gary Waters a Christmas card every year thanking Gary for giving him his head coaching career. 3 Quote

Whomever the EMU alum was that helped (hypothetically, of course) Emoni's charges get dropped, they have to be pissed. "Stan, I pulled strings to get Emoni available for you, and these are the results you give us in return? Us 10 EMU fans that show up every game are pissed." Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted January 13, 2023 Author Report Posted January 13, 2023 Heath is 223-240 in his career. Yikes. He is though 4-0 in fooling D1 athletic directors. Those that worked the Bates deal were promised season tickets. They are now thinking that they got the short end of that deal. 2 Quote
LoyalZIP Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 The Rowdies still have a long way to go until they’re as good as the group from 10-15 years ago. The numbers are getting better, but still an awful lot of them have no idea how to cheer or socialize. They should have a cheat-sheet of every visiting roster’s girlfriends, past crimes, past schools, etc. 2 Quote

They're showing up in nice numbers. They're just not as original as the old rowdies. 2 1 Quote
kreed5120 Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 (edited) I feel EMU is just a bad experiment where you take one of the top 5 players in the conference and surround him with the absolute worst supporting cast. It turns out it takes more than just 1 player, even at the collegiate level, to win basketball games Edited January 13, 2023 by kreed5120 1 Quote
LoyalZIP Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 Clarke may be giving it a go. Any depth helps, IMO. 1 Quote
akzipper Posted January 14, 2023 Report Posted January 14, 2023 Man this is a terrible game on ESPNU before the Zips. Yale is really fouling down 10 with 20 seconds left? Now Cornell calls a timeout with 14 seconds left? Just end the pain and let us watch our team. 2 Quote

MDZip Posted January 14, 2023 Report Posted January 14, 2023 And I never get tired of them using the phrase defending MAC champion Akron Zips. 😊 2 Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted January 14, 2023 Report Posted January 14, 2023 Announcer said she talked to NBA scouts that said X and Freeman are on their radar. Quote
