I disagree, it obviously would not be a highly coveted job but it is still a D1 coaching job in a conference that has a pretty good reputation for sending successful coaches onto bigger and better programs. You would have coaches wanting this job - despite all of its insufficiencies. Look at Toledo’s recent hire. He was very successful at FCS Mercer. Would he have applied for an open Akron job? Not sure, but I think he might have, and I think others would as well.

Absolute embarrassment on every level

Well on a positive note, on that drive we did complete our 5th pass and go over 50yds passing halfway through the 3rd quarter

Buffalo just almost beat Western Michigan

92 yards of offense in the half for the offensive genius

Run the f’ing ball - you’re getting 5 yards a carry!

This is keystone cop-ish

They discovered that we can’t block

The financial support from Akron for football is obviously minimal but most MAC teams are in a similar situation. Here is a list of MAC teams that have been to a bowl in the last five years - seems only one team is missing… Miami Toledo Ohio Western Michigan Central Michigan Nothern Illinois Ball State Buffalo Bowling Green Eastern Michigan Kent State

This game hurt the worst. We pretty much knew that Wake and Minnesota would be bad losses. We also knew we should beat Robert Morris. This game was going to be a good test of where we are. We knew UNLV was a good team, but not P4 and we should be able to be competitive- we were for a half. Then we showed our true colors again - so disappointing. Being outscored 38-3 after going up 7-0 is flat out embarrassing. Same old, same old - turnovers, bad penalties, blown coverages and the bottom line is that we only scored 10 points and gave up 38. It just feels like the Joe era is missing the intangibles. Intensity? Grit? Discipline? Attitude? All of the above?

24-0 second half - horrible

Has any coach ever admitted that they are playing a bad team? 😂 Every press conference their opponent is super talented, with an amazing coaching staff, very physical etc etc.

The Miami game is their family weekend so I doubt that will be a night game. I’d guess it’s likely another 3:30 start.

Who is going to play QB?? Any word on Worm’s injury status?

Well, they are currently undefeated and did beat a Big Ten team by 16 pts
