Coppin State men’s basketball releases 2014-15 schedule
BALTIMORE – The Coppin State 2014-15 men’s basketball schedule released Tuesday afternoon resembles Beyonce and Jay-Z’s “On The Run” tour itinerary as the Eagles will play games in 11 states highlighted by visits to reigning NCAA champion Connecticut and 2013 NCAA runner-up Michigan.
Overall, the Eagles will play 11 of their 29 games at home in the Physical Education Complex under first-year head coach Michael Grant. Coppin State’s home opener will be on Monday, Dec. 1 against Division II Goldey-Beacom College. The Eagles will also host Hofstra (Wed. Dec. 10) and Eastern Kentucky (Tue., Dec. 30) during the month of December.
Coppin State starts the season with a four-game 10-day road trip from Nov. 14-23 in which it play a game in every time zone in the contiguous United States: Oregon (Fri., Nov. 14), Illinois (Sat., Nov. 16), Notre Dame (Wed., Nov. 19) and Denver (Sun., Nov. 23).
“This is a tremendous schedule full of high-caliber opponents,” said Grant. “We are looking forward to the challenges this season presents. Each game provides our team with different challenges before heading into MEAC play. We are thrilled for the opportunity to play great programs. Finalizing our schedule makes it more exciting for all of us and the fans.”
The Eagles will play Connecticut on Sun., Dec. 14 and Michigan on Mon., Dec. 22 in consecutive December games as part of four-game road trip that also includes stops at Eastern Michigan (Tue., Dec. 23) and Evansville (Sun., Dec. 28). The location of the Connecticut game will be determined later. It will either played on the Huskies’ campus in Storrs or at the XL Center in downtown Hartford.
Grant has University of Michigan ties as he served as a graduate assistant where he helped coach and develop his younger brother Gary Grant, who eventually became the Big Ten Player of the Year in 1988. Gary Grant was the 14th overall player chosen in the 1988 NBA draft. The Wolverines beat the Eagles last season.
In addition, the Eagles will play their final non-conference contest and first game of 2015 against Akron on Sat. Jan. 3. Grant was born in Cleveland and attended high school in Canton.
Coppin State will play 16 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) contests beginning with a visit to Hampton on Saturday, Dec. 6. The Eagles eliminated Hampton from the MEAC tournament in the quarterfinals last season. Coppin State’s first home conference contest will be on Saturday, Jan. 17 against Bethune-Cookman, a squad the Eagles defeated in the first round of the MEAC tournament last season.
The Eagles will play every MEAC school at least once and have home-and-home matchups against Northern Division rivals Howard, Morgan State, Norfolk State and Delaware State. Coppin State will host four of the six Southern Division teams (Savannah State, South Carolina State, Florida A&M and Bethune-Cookman).
The Eagles will play six of their final eight games at home highlighted by a season-high four game homestand featuring Morgan State (Monday, Feb. 2), South Carolina State (Saturday, Feb. 7), Savannah State (Monday, Feb. 9) and Howard (Saturday, Feb. 14). Coppin concludes the regular season on Thursday, March 5 at home against Delaware State.
The year wraps a trip to Norfolk for the annual MEAC Tournament from March 9-14.
Coppin State, which won 12 games last year and advanced to the MEAC semifinals, returns 11 players.
Senior guard Taariq Cephas, senior forward Dallas Gary, senior guard Daquan Brickhouse, senior forward Arnold Fripp, senior forward Brandon St. Louis, and junior guard Sterling Smith are among the top returning players for the Eagles this season. Cephas, who averaged 9.4 points per game, finished third in the MEAC in assists per game (4.1). Smith is the Eagles leading returning scorer (10.9 ppg.). He also led the Eagles with 60 3-pointers.
Other scheduling nuggets:
• Back to Oregon ... The Eagles play a Pac-12 school in the state of Oregon for the second straight year. The Eagles defeated Oregon State, 78-73, last season. This is also the second straight season, Coppin State will begin the season against a Pac-12 opponent. Coppin State began the 2013-14 season against California.
• Conference Casting Call ... Coppin State will play against schools from 10 different conferences this season (Pac-12, Big 10, ACC, American Athletic, MAC, America East, CAA, Summit, Central Atlantic Collegiate and Missouri Valley).
• Bye-ing Time ... The Eagles MEAC byes occur on Monday, Jan. 12 and Monday, Feb. 23.
• Home Cooking ... Coppin State will play five of its seven February games at home in the Physical Education Complex. February also features the Eagles’ longest home stand of the season of four games (Morgan State, South Carolina State, Savannah State and Howard from Feb. 2-14). The Eagles will leave the state once in February when it travels to Delaware State on Feb. 16.
• Time Travelers ... Coppin State starts the season with a four-game road trip from Nov. 14-23 in which it play a game in every time zone in the contiguous United States: Oregon (Fri., Nov. 14), Illinois (Sat., Nov. 16), Notre Dame (Wed., Nov. 19) and Denver (Sun., Nov. 23).
• Welcome Back ... The Eagles will welcome Florida A&M to Baltimore for the first time since Feb. 8, 2010.

Does Blood Type Affect Diet Choices?
Interesting short article on a topic that has been debated for almost two decades now.
Does Blood Type Affect Diet Choices?
The Medical Tribune
Q: Does a person's blood type indicate the type of diet he or she should follow?
A: No. You may have heard of a diet based on the idea that blood type indicates whether your genetic ancestors were hunters, farmers or nomads. This in turn tells you whether you should eat meat, chicken, dairy foods, etc. Supposedly, eating appropriately for your blood type helps control weight while preventing cancer and other health problems. Although reports of such a diet may include vague references to someone's "research," no research supporting such claims has appeared in a scientific journal where it could be reviewed by experts.
Any weight loss that results from such a diet is probably due to the menus prescribed by the diet. These menus often contain calorie levels that are quite low, and many foods are restricted. Most experts agree that long-term weight control is best achieved by unrestricted access to a variety of foods, with emphasis on portion control, nutritional balance and regular exercise.
As for cancer prevention, a landmark report from the American Institute for Cancer Research concluded that a diet that emphasizes fruits, vegetables, whole grains and beans is the best approach.

Personal Trainers: Train More Clients, Make More, Have More Freedom
VIDEO Reveals SECRETS to Transform Your Body Faster

#1 fat burning workout in The World!
This may be the most awesome things I've stumbled upon to help my clients burn more fat and get into shape faster.
Let me explain...
I've been testing out a new training program for my clients that not only burns more calories while they're working out with me - but it keeps burning extra calories even after their workout.
Sounds crazy, right?
The post workout calorie burn is actually called "after burn" and it only takes place when a few critical factors are accomplished during the workout.
I won't bore you with the details of the science behind "after burn", but what I can tell you is that if these few critical things are done during your workout, then you can expect to have an elevated metabolism for up to 18 hours AFTER your workout.
Pretty sweet!
Now, just the "after burn" factor is amazing in itself becuase it's almost like getting twice the workout results from each workout.
B-U-T I figured out a way where I can get my clients even FASTER results... and it has NOTHING to do with science.
Say what?!
Yep, this other way of burning more fat and getting faster muscle toning results has nothing to do with exercise science at all.
It's actually all about human psychology...
See, what I figured out was when I train my clients with social media feedback (through our facebook page, email, and phone contact) they actually workout harder. (human nature is to compete I guess)
So then I got to thinking and decided that if I can put together a body transformation challenge where I can train my clients online, for a period of time (six weeks), and give the person with the best transformation a prize (like one of the latest iPads) then you'd really see amazing results!
Makes sense, right?
My special "after burn" producing workouts + a body transformation challenge = massive fat loss, body toning, belly flattening, and sexy arms, legs and butt.
Brilliant!
In fact here's what I expect AVERAGE results to be on this six week body transformation challenge.
Men can expect to drop 25 – 32 pounds of fat Women can expect to drop 12-24 pounds of fat
AND...
on average men can expect to lose: 6.5 inches from their waist and women can expect to lose 4.8 inches from their waist
Yes, all this in six weeks.
Here's the deal: I'm going to launching this Six Week Body Transformation Challenge in about a week. And when I do I'm only going to take on 18 participants so that I can give every participant lots of attention.
And at the end of the six week transformation challenge I'm giving the winner a new iPad (actually everyone will win since there's going to be a LOT of inches and pounds lost).
So if you are interested in dropping 5-8 inches off your waist in the next 6 weeks (plus a pile of weight) then send me an email and I will put you on the "action taker" list and reserve your spot.
These action takers will get email notification of the program launch date BEFORE my normal list.
Email me now to get on the awesomeness priority list :)
