Bummer to hear about this. Maybe he can come home and build our soccer NIL program.

The issue with JoeMo goes beyond the X's and O's. He's a poor leader of men, doesn't adapt, and seemingly has zero issue using excuses as a crutch. NIL won't help with the intangibles he lacks as a head coach. @catdaddyp has broken down the talent on this roster that JoeMo consistently underachieves with. We need a coach to say to Hell with the BS, we're going to win some damn football games. Someone has to possess this type of attitude that's required to hold those above him and around him accountable, and turn around this program. That's an absurd statement. The University of Akron is a public higher education institution that literally does nothing but spend others' money, and they do it poorly. I was merely pointing out the importance of a donor stepping up and funding the termination of JoeMo so the program can move forward, just like we've seen at a number of other schools. It would be awesome if the football program could find their Bud Wentz, someone who is so passionate about the Zips that he does whatever it takes and is creative in boosting the football program.

Joe's firing needs to be on the donors. Kaulig or someone needs to step up and fund the buyout.

It is so fitting that Akron and the Cleveland Browns are partners. Last Sunday, the Browns held the Bengals to 7 yds of total offense in the second half and lost. Last night, the Zips held UAB to 0 second half points and lost. When there's no mental pressure on Finley, he's a fine MAC QB. The moment any weight gets put on his shoulders, he folds like a very cheap lawn chair. He brought the Zips back from the dead in that game, but once it got within a score, he panicked in the pocket, missed his reads, etc. Someone on the Zips fan Facebook group stated they were at the game and heard tons of chaos on the Zips sideline. JoeMo was yelling at people and there was tons of confusion with play calls. JoeMo has to go. Let the interim coach get his feet wet vs. Duquesne. This program needs a glimmer of hope and that can only be accomplished with a HC search. UAB and Wyoming were the cornerstone pieces of a successful season this year. Two pathetic G5 programs with semi-decent name recognition, and we flopped vs. both. Bye Joe.

Waaaaiiiitttt just a minute! JoeMo may get a ride home!

Incredible. Leave Joe Mo in Birmingham. He loves The South.

Bummer.

What a find.

What else is there to do in Vermont in September? Collect maple syrup? Sing the Sound of Music while they wait for the Von Trapp Family Lodge to open their skiing? I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Love seeing mid major soccer rise to prominence. This is going to be a good match. Can't wait and Go Zips! z.i.P.S. Put me down for an emphasis on more promotional items related to soccer. Scarves, bobbleheads, replica 2010 National Championship trophy, etc.

Cary (I looked last night out of curiosity myself).

Win on Saturday and Akron will be #2 at worst next week with the most difficult part of the schedule behind us.

GOOOOOAAAALLLL 4-0 with 17 minutes to play (I know this is late; forgot to hit send)

Penalty Kick for Akron. GOOOAAALLL!!!! 3-0 Akron. 37 minutes to play.

ANOTHER GOAL! 2-0 with 25 minutes to play in the 1st half.

Great publicity, Joe.

What is it gonna take for JoeMo to make a change at QB?

If Joe has any decency, he resigns.

Bazzana has 2 more HRs tonight for the Clippers, too. These are my positives I'm holding onto after watching whatever crap JoeMo is doing.

Unbelievable. Fire JoeMo.

Fire JoeMo.

They were too busy trying to run cover for their precious P4 Suckeyes. As the game wore on, the realization that Akron is a more dominant soccer program than Ohio State really became evident in their tone and commentary. It was Louvre worthy.

This team may just end up being special.

(Pretend this is a zero)

B1G+ is $14 after taxes for the month. However, I don't have any interest in giving the Big Ten any of my money, so I'll be following this on a stat tracker. Go Zips!

Forecast looks good for this one, unlike last time when Nebraska dodged an upset loss in Scott Frost's debut. Unfortunately for us, this one won't be cancelled.
