Let'sGoZips94 Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 (edited) Creighton is a smarter team. Freeman in foul trouble is off Kalkbrenner to start possessions, and McDermott's game plan is forcing a switch to get Freeman back on Kalkbrenner. Their execution all game has been damn near flawless. Edited March 21 by Let'sGoZips94 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAZipster0305 Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 At least we have not quit and are making it look respectable. The difference of late is that Freeman has been more actively involved on both ends. Love that kid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akzipper Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 This game hurts a lot more because I have no idea where the Zips go from here. A complete rebuild is coming and I think we're in for some rough years ahead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What 4th or 5th year senior that has aspirations to play in the tournament is going to want to come to an Akron team devoid of talent? Groce is going to have to find some diamonds in the rough.

ziptrumpet87 Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 Kudos to Freeman for a great 🦘 career. I just wish he had fewer opportunities on the offensive end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class of 82 Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 You have a good coach, with a great staff, a culture of winning and you start again. That's how it has worked forever. Go Zips! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reslife4Life Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 Just a ridiculous stat, they won the rebound battle 38-26, but we only had 20 chances for defensive rebounds (and got 17 of them) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreed5120 Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 Overall, I can't complain about the effort. I just don't think this team ever really neared its potential this season. Shooting woes plagued us the 2nd half of the season and we really had no way of defending #11 on Creighton. I'd recommend trying to send a double to force him out of his dribble, but they just shoot the 3 too well to do that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s especially apparent that LeBron is not going to help his hometown team if he won’t even shout them out or give them shoes like he did for Duquesne. It’s a bummer the Leaf Filter guy was a football player instead of a basketball player, because his donations would go a lot further with the basketball team. I still appreciate what he does for the football team, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZipsFan31 Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 (edited) 1st off. Thank you to the seniors… what a fun year. We got to the mountain top! a Mac tournament title. looking to next year I think we have a future superstar: Sharon Young. He won 3 straight class 4 titles in WV and also won Gatorade player of the year. He is a power 5 talent coming here! you have a gap year and let him grow and by sophomore year we will be ready to hand him the keys. Zips will be just fine if we keep Groce Edited March 21 by ZipsFan31 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
