The Hip Zip Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 Now I love him even more.Coles was asked about the prospect of the Zips getting zip from the NCAA.''It's criminal,'' he said. ''Akron should be in the tournament. The one bid should end. People talk about RPIs and other teams and I don't even hear Akron get mentioned. I don't see the difference between Akron and some of the others.''I don't see how they can't get in. They're going to have 25 or 26 victories, I mean, gee whiz.''Thanks, Charlie Quote
BZip_08 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 I would kiss the man on both cheeks for those words, but man he's just creepy looking up close. Quote
Akron1 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 Tell Charlie Coles to vote for Akron in the USA Today/ESPN Poll. Quote
Bleacher Bum Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 I think he's my favorite MAC coach right after Dambrot! Of course WITHERSPOON! is a close third. Quote
mckenzie Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 the man just spoke what all the others think. GO ZIPS! Quote
Blue & Gold Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 Tell Charlie Coles to vote for Akron in the USA Today/ESPN Poll. That's what I was thinking. I believe he may be the only MAC coach with a vote in the coaches' poll, right? Well, he didn't give Akron a single vote! So I don't know what he's talking about! Him not voting for us obviously doesn't help our cause. But it hurts the entire MAC as well! Screw Miami! Quote
Bleacher Bum Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 They only get 25 votes. Akron is NOT one of the best 25 teams in the country. We are, however, one of the best 65 and deserve a look for the tourney. Quote
originalrowdy Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 I would kiss the man on both cheeks for those words, but man he's just creepy looking up close. Yeah, he reminds me of that one dude on the old horror flick "Pet Cemetary". You know, bald in the front with longer hair on the sides and back, wrinkley face, and thin frame...ughhh, just creepy!

We are, however, one of the best 65 and deserve a look for the tourney.And if the tournament was for the best 65 teams -- Akron would get in. The system instead is actually is for the top "X" amount of teams after the automatic bids. Quote
Blue & Gold Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 Let's go easy on his physical appearance guys. The dude's had some health problems. Heart problems, if I'm not mistaken. Quote
GoZips88 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 I love how Coles interacts with the fans. Also enjoy the many facial expressions on display during a game. Nice guy. Is a Miami alum and, like Dambrot, is probably very satisfied as head coach at his alma mater. Quote
