  1. I think you are confusing the powers of the athletic director with those of the trustees and university president. Parking? Dorms? Paul Hammond retired after a long career. Anne Jorgensen did not work for the athletic department. When she retired, she was the director of student success. Those contract extensions are public record. Would have rather those coaches not be extended? The womens soccer program has been a disaster for at least 10 years. This coach was a winner everywhere she went prior to Akron. I guess she was guilty of trying too hard to turn the program around. Do I need to keep going? Football! Lol Btw, I really like your screen name. Very imaginative!
  2. This post has so many holes in it, if it was a boat it would sink in 30 seconds. Either that or it is one of the all-time troll posts in ZN.o history!

  4. Coach Gensler has completed his reload of the roster. Hopefully there will be no repeat of last years injury riddled season. https://gozips.com/news/2025/6/4/akron-womens-basketball-adds-four-to-2025-signing-class?fbclid=IwY2xjawKuXQFleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHu-k_dsHV4L_xANyfB7Iqwcg_66u5VVDwi_xESJeDzgRkg1NSCHZvaO54VSv_aem_6ElaCRWeYYOno7TtI7f9Bw
  5. This is actually a move up for Camden. At Akron his main job was development(fundraising). This new position is better suited to what he showed after Charles departed. External operations is more about the day to day operations of the department. It also reunites him with his former coworker who is the AD at Omaha. It's also much closer to where he grew up in Missouri.
  6. Sam is planning on staying. Her institutional knowledge will really help out the new AD.
  7. I believe you are going to get your wish but not in the way you think. What's going to happen, is the P4 schools are going to break away from the enforcement policies of the house settlement. If what I am reading is true, they won't want to abide by the salary constraints. That will leave the rest of us with a more manageable framework. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/conference-expulsion-no-penalty-structure-frustration-mounts-as-college-sports-enforcement-comes-into-focus/
  8. As far as I know, this is the most championships won by Akron athletics in a single year. MBB Regular and Tournament MSOC Regular Men’s Indoor T&F Swimming & Diving WLaX Regular and Tournament Men’s Outdoor T&F Also the best finishes by Softball and Baseball in years Best finish by Football In 6 years
  9. Congratulations to Markus!
  10. AD doesn't control that budget.
  11. You're over thinking this. There is no conspiracy. The information is out there for anybody to see.
  12. Craig is an interesting guy. He is from Canada and was a hockey player. He is a lot of fun and the players really like him.
  13. You hit the nail on the head! If this situation was somehow the fault of the administration, we would be having the same type of problems in the other programs. Moorhead dropped the ball even though the administration was all over him about this problem. They even hired an outsider firm to help. They offered players the chance to come back and complete their degree for no charge! But the guys we were bringing in didn't care after they left via the portal or after they ran out of eligibility.
  14. I'm just a realist. The new leadership group is serious about stopping the bleeding.
  15. I doubt anybody is going to happy about the meaningful changes that are coming.
  16. The issue is the revolving door of players. Too many players making no progress towards a degree.
  17. It's the head coaches job to make sure the players are holding up their end of the bargain.
  18. The Zips are ineligible for a bowl game this season due to low APR.
  19. Unless someone can show some type of written proof of what these alleged promises were, it never happened. Guthrie bent over backwards to support Moorhead. This year's schedule is proof. Powers that be, wanted him to schedule another pay game but he resisted. Big improvements to facilities were made. At some point, it's up to the coach to deliver.
  20. Frees up a scholarship for someone who might actually be available to play.
  21. The Mormon's are flush with cash.
  22. So let me get this right. Burns was so dumb that he never bothered to insure his house so he needed a $100k loan from a vendor to repair flood damage to said house?
