The good thing is that ESPN predictor matchup has the Cats favored in all the other games except Akron twice, Kent away and Toledo away. Go Cats!
ESPN's computer has been smoking Walter White's blue meth.

Skinny Pete and Badger probably sold it to them.

Quick question, do we actually have 13 scholarship players? Or whatever the number is nowadays. It sure doesn’t look like it when you look at our bench.

I'd be more interested in how many NIL players we have.

We started year with 12 scholly players. Ezuma and AJB are non-active so down to 10. Nichol redshirting. Down to 9. If EJ is out that leaves us:
PG: Hunter, Sheldon
SG: Miles, Reef
C: Clayton, Wiz
F: Cornish, Hadaway

Several Bobcat players are earning NIL money.

I bet they wish they had filled that last scholarship with a big during the portall.

fill it or waste it there is a difference. No one available to fill it so why waste it? They tried to fill it, just couldn't get it done when it came down to it. We can blame the gourds guy, because the grass wasn't cut and the college green was not as pretty as it needed to be to make someone fall in love with it. Or we could say, folks didn't donate enough to get the money needed to land that big through the collective.

Billy, they wasted other scholarships. So they waste one more? In this day and age guys will walk if they don’t get playing time anyway.

Yeah, and LOTS of people come free at the last minute! Nothing wrong with being prepared. You realize Tim O'Shea made a living out of last minute pick-ups with one to give.
