Took the kids to the zoo today and didn’t get back til about 10 minutes left in the 4th quarter and turned it off with about 6 minutes left out of frustration. In that time, I saw multiple Kent TDs, an interception, the worst fake punt I’ve seen in my life, 3 pass interference calls, and a fumbled kickoff recovered by Kent. Also pretty inexplicable play calling by Joe Mo (3 straight passes for a 3 and out when the running game was gettting 5+ YPC the drive before. Hate to say it, but I think I’m out on Akron football until something changes. I don’t think Joe is HC material in this era of NCAA sports, but also not naive enough to think anything changes regardless of who the coach is unless we actually invest in the program in ways that matter. Dire situation.

Agreed with that (though I wonder if there is flexibility for next semester). Just didn’t know if there is some special rule I’m not aware of. If not, I’d say they are taking someone else’s spot, it’s just too late to do anything about it unless there’s an Enrique Freeman on campus.

What do you mean they’re not taking spots from anyone? Is there some grandfather rule that allows them to not count against the limit?

Today feels very Arth like

Shocked Miami did not get points on that final drive. Come out and score to open the half now…

Anytime you can throw a cross route for zero yards on 3rd and 2, gotta do it

Typical ending to the half after a mostly good first half..

Good drive wasted by shooting ourselves in the foot. Two dropped snaps have been killers today. Roggow is slinging it though

Miami QB doesn’t appear to be a downfield passing threat at all

Good start!

No Broughton, Abor, or Patrick today. Wohoo

Valid point

Especially when the AAC basically said they weren’t interested in Miami like a month ago.

Follow the rules so we don’t get banned from March Madness. We have better character than the LSU’s or Texas Tech’s of the world. interesting how much the environment has changed since Covid. LCJ, Cheese, Riak etc got screwed by not only having their career cut short, but also the class after them got the extra COVID year and not them.

Probably where it’s going anyways (along with the Mountain West and PAC-whatever). Moving up to AAC might mean more money, but at the end of the day, you’re still just one of the taller midgets.

It’s absurd to me the amount of money these schools are willing to pay to join another G6 conference. I saw JMU is paying the AAC $20mm to join, plus whatever the Sun Belt exit fee is. Think I read Miami offered a similar or higher amount. Probably going to have to have more in travel costs as well. Wonder what breakeven period is for the “investment”. What happens if you can’t compete and the fanbase dies or enrollment drops?

I believe this is the first time Poffenbarger isn’t listed as out in the availability report. So I’d guess that means he’s either playing or they’ve given up on gaining eligibility. edit: he’s no longer listed into the roster. Looking like another fun day.

From a promotion/fan engagement standpoint, yes.

Today was disappointing, but some very interesting results around the MAC today. Either a bunch of flukes or really wide open.

Not sure I can watch the second half. Ugly domination

First passing TD of the year for CMU

Pretty shocked we’re winning right now, but I’ll take it. stay ahead of the chains and don’t ask too much from Roggow.

Feel like that’s the second time that’s happened this season

We look like dog crap. Prime opportunity to at least get FG and come up with nothing.

Would be great is Roggow can stop taking these sacks
