The rule for graduating/transferring/playing without sitting a year is that If one has graduated, they can transfer and not sit a year if the new school has a graduate program that the old one didn't offer.

What I'm saying is, a lot of people say they're going to be happy with 3 or 4 wins. I hope if that happens, they stand by that.

false

I don't understand how this can happen with a shot clock. Terrible basketball over there.

Growing up in PA, i'm a pitt fan as well. Todd Graham said all the right things upon his hire. With the situation he stepped into, there was no way he was going to succeed right away. Now I'm not comparing TB to the "high octane" scum known as Todd Graham, but stay realistic everyone. He's going to be a great coach, i dont have a doubt, but he isn't going 10-2 in his first year. He's saying all the right things to inject some enthusiasm into a fanbase that had nothing going for it 4 weeks ago, but i just don't want to see everyone disappointed if he doesn't light the world on fire in year one.

RMU was not in the tournament last year.

I'm neither sad, nor angry. I just enjoy some good irony when i see it.

Were those 1st 2 paragraphs about the SEC or OSU?

I need to look at the box score, but it felt like they really cleaned up on the offensive boards.

It's unreal how many people think everyone has it out for Akron. we had plenty of chances to put this away and didn't.

I was under the impression that UMass wouldn't be in the MAC this year and just playing a provisional D-1 schedule with a few 1-AA teams.

I'd go home with Rachel Nichols

Truer words will not be typed here today. The produces of that show should win awards. It is the best show on TV. It is actually worth a subscription to HBO. I'm not a Flyers or Rangers fan, but I cannot wait until next Wednesday's episode. I learned a ton in the first episode. I typed this on ZN before, but I would do whatever possible to contact the producers and give them whatever they wanted to do HBO special 'Winters Come Early in Akron - Season 1' football special. Maybe IMG will do it. Looking forward to KD's show, he is always entertaining when mic'd. Good move by U of A. I get HBO in december just for 24/7. Even though it's the Flyers/Rangers this year

Tells us all we need to know about you. Akron lost to freakin' Gardner-Webb. And you think the national runners-up couldn't have knocked off a 1-11 team that had stopped playing for its coach? That tells us all we need to know about YOU, my deluded friend. The difference between Div. II (WSU) and I-AA (GW) is pretty huge. I wonder what Jim Tressell would have to say about this, based on the 1994 YSU/UNA clash. Yes, that's right, YSU won the 1-AA championship in 1994 with a 14-0-1 record and struggled mightily with the D-II North Alabama Lions. Hey, look who YSU beat by a combined 96-24 in the three weeks after the UNA game? And look who YSU beat 28-14 in the I-AA championship. If you'd like to keep spewing your "if I've never experienced something, then of course it's never happened", provincial ignorance, nobody can stop you. lol that's your best argument? They struggled mightily? Sheesh

bravo, dave

Kornheiser seems to think Bowden to UA is a great move on PTI.

I think the people that don't get zipmeister's jokes are funnier than the actual jokes

Yes. Props to Hiltopper and HollywoodZip. Lots of people with "sources" during this search but 2 people who I'll trust with info from here on out.

I'm still not getting my hopes up for a great year. Sticking to my expectations of a couple wins, to be fair to Mr. Bowden. He's inheriting a bad team. I'm still very hopeful

Ohio Burger is so much better

Honestly, Bowden came to us, and we had to go to Detroit to get turned down by PW. I can safely say I am happy we did not get Paul Winters.

GREAT hire. I'm excited.

If he gets Mike Johnson, I'll be happy. Otherwise, he swung and missed on at least 4 people.
