kreed5120 Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 Toledo plays its starters heavy minutes. Wilson played all 45 minutes, Simmons played 39 (would gave been 42, but he fouled out with 3 minutes in OT), Lewis played 44, and Adams played 34 (would have been more, but fouled out near end of regulation). If Akron can turn tomorrow into a track meet it should be to our benefit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advantage Akron all day long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want him out of this tourney. Expand Gave us fits when we played them in Athens. Definitely a guy who can take a game over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand So far Tod and his strategy of sucking during the regular season to not lose in the tournament is paying off. Let's see if we can change that for him. 😉 Edited March 13 by MDZip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Unless there is something that I'm unaware of, my best guess is because there is supposed to be 30 minutes between games. That way players have time to warm up. Miami-EMU probably ran over.

1981 grad Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 Please ignore above post. Could not get it off my screen. Our best player and MAC player of the year went 1 for 9 and only scored 3 points and we won by 30. However, Nate had 8 rebounds and 5 assists. He also had the plus 25 while on the floor which led the Zips. Hope he has a better shooting day tomorrow. On a completely unrelated note, I met a guy at the game whose job was to record player stats in real time and he told me he would be there all day doing all 4 games. He said there were at least 10 other people doing the same thing as him for different companies. He indicated it was gambling related and that the stats on ESPN were delayed by 30 seconds. I guess the gambling companies need all the stats in real time to adjust the odds as the game progresses. He told me the job paid $200 a day but he loved it because he loves basketball. I just found this bizarre. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipinnc Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 I was scouting PCCC a few minutes ago. At halftime, they did a piece on one of the flushes. It was his love letter to basketball. It was nice, but then I remembered the halftime piece from our game this morning. Our halftime piece was about our transfers. It was awesome to see how Akron has become a home for them and the connections they have. #TEAMISM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
