Yes, and Poffenbarger had better stats at Albany than Undercuffler did during his time there. So that's a good sign if nothing else.

We love former Albany QBs

Red Panda or nothing!

yes. Poffenbarger.

We Have a Quarterback, Folks!!!! Very exciting!!! Big news!

This game is Youth Day and Mascot Day and there is also a dance cheer clinic. There's also some kind of discount on kid's tickets, so maybe they'll get as decent crowd. Don't forget, it's a 2:00 tip-off.

Damn. Do you know if Lyons has another year of eligibility? Thought I saw a photo of him working out recently

he had a lot of offers coming out of college. the players really liked him and from what i heard he was a hard worker. I think schools were scared because of his height but i was impressed and i thought he did very well and stepped up to the challenge for the most part.

He was going to be our best OL.

Not trying to be drastic, but I would probably just give Buffalo and Kent State the death penalty.

McManus entered the portal today. I was hoping to have one more year but wish him lots of luck. I think he has a very bright future ahead of him.

Looks like the coaches voted in favor of it but still needs to be approved by NCAA

I don't see it mentioned here, but apparently new rule was passed upping the number of games allowed to be played for a redshirt from 4 to 9. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/47601492/fbs-coaches-vote-unanimously-adjust-sport-redshirt-rule

It was the suspicious betting trends that did him in. Not the fact that he threw a ball or strike. The handle on micro betting is very small so if the typical handle is let's say $1k-2k on any particular pitch and over the course of a season a pitcher or batter has $200k bet placed on them 5-10 times then that will just stick out. If it happened just once then nobody would have probably noticed, but the trend repeated itself. That's why spreads are more commonly bet on. Those are more likely to go under the radar as a $100k bet on something that typically sees $2M-$3M in action isn't going to stand out as much as a $100K bet on something people rarely bet on. Still people get greedy and there are lots of mouths to get fed in match fixing. A $5k on that Kent - Buffalo game probably goes unnoticed. A $400k+ is a ton to bet on a MACtion game. A UNC-Duke game probably not so much.

It is sad that we are having this discussion. Sports betting will ruin collegiate sports if the NCAA does not ruin it first. I respect Groce in that he recruits high class scholar athletes who know right from wrong. I hope he can continue to have a pipeline to these athletes.

I believe baseball has to be the easiest to get away with. More so as a hitter, you can bet the outcome of the next AB of a player, if you are smart about it you go up there and strike out it would be so hard to tell. I still think Clase could've gotten away with it longer if they literally bet the over on his pitch speed O/U instead of the first pitch ball bets

Well yes, something like boxing would be easier. I was more thinking team sports when I said it.

I think individual sports such as ping pong or tennis are easier to fix since you have only one participant. However, basketball might be easier not to get caught since there are so many games and MAC games might get under the radar.

I assume not, but has anyone heard an update on Sharron?

top drawer soccer also included a goal that Aiden scored

https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/article/?categoryId=21&articleId=55589&articleTitle=ten-underrated-mens-transfer-portal-moves Aiden Benitez, Akron Benitez is headed to Akron after recording four goals and four assists in a stellar first season for the Butler Bulldogs. The Indiana native can play multiple attacking roles at a high level, and his conference experience suggests he could get off to a fast start.

Saw a few players tweet about wanting/possibly expecting this guy.
