I guess if the biggest knock on the guy is his performance in the NCAA tournament it’s a good sign? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWAkron Posted May 5, 2023 Report Share Posted May 5, 2023 I admire the level of care taken to bring in these 3 players. Laser focused. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean by this, @NWAkron? Do you mean you feel these players perfectly fill needed roles on the roster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As NWAkron’s unofficial PR manager, I believe he means that Prince Mosengo, Kobe Mitchell, and Garvin Clarke were turned into Kaleb Thornton, Shammah Scott, and Ali Ali. That is certainly an impressive upgrade. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a cultivated group filling out the roster. @LoyalZIPsaid it much better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valpo Zip Posted May 5, 2023 Report Share Posted May 5, 2023 I know it is only May, but I have never been that excited about a Zips team since Zeke Marshall's senior year. If things go well, this team is built for winning NCAA games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is living proof that you can stare down these weapons of sports marketing war, and not be deterred from sporting events. Bud Light's Real Men of Genius recognized the inventor of the t-shirt cannon, but it's people like NWAkron who are the Real Men." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoZips86 Posted May 5, 2023 Report Share Posted May 5, 2023 Ali Ali coming back may be as big of a story as LeBron returning to Cleveland a few years ago. Dare I say maybe even bigger?!? (Yes, thats a joke, guys!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981 grad Posted May 5, 2023 Report Share Posted May 5, 2023 It will be interesting to see if a year in the Big East has made Ali into a better player. I also wonder if the coach at Butler told Ali to leave or if he decided to leave on his own volition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dare I say maybe even bigger?!? (Yes, thats a joke, guys!) If I was good at photoshop, I'd photoshop Ali in this. A day later and I'm still stoked. Akron is returning 4 out of their top 5 scorers from a team that was 2 minutes away from knocking off a really great UCLA team. Castaneda is gone, but Freeman is a more polished post scorer than he was then. This team also has significantly more depth so I think we'll see a much more aggressive style of defensive play. I'm not sure I've ever been this hyped in the offseason for an Akron team. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed like a good kid and his shortcomings never appeared to be a result of a lack of effort or bad attitude. He should be very good at that level.
