Bingo! Always looking over our shoulder. Hopefully Coach is here for a long time. Go Zips!

I'm not saying they're reasons that make sense or that are particularly defensible. Because I agree with you, they're not. I'm just saying if the Akrons of the world aren't giving people a reason to care, they're going to make that decision. But as I've said a few times...they got their best crowd of the year for a Tuesday night Kent game in awfully cold weather. I do legitimately have hope they're turning that side of it around a little bit.

Assisting with the search for Charleston’s next head coach is Collegiate Sports Associates. Mack owes the college $1.3 million in his buyout, and the two programs have also agreed to a home-and-home series.

They won!!

I think he’s a solid pickup, especially at this stage of the cycle where the portal’s mostly been picked over and almost every program is turning their attention to the JUCO ranks and lower levels without another entry window. My guess is Hull and Highland end up as the starters, with Williams working into the rotation. I doubt we’re done adding at DT either, unless someone already on the roster has eaten their way into the position or there’s a flip from the other side of the ball.

The number of people deciding between going to a Zips game on Friday/Saturday or a Browns game is irrelevant. The greater Cleveland MSA is 3.7 million people. I'm not asking much out of a day after Thanksgiving game. I would be thrilled with 15,000 of those 3.7 million people showing up to watch them play the second least appealing MAC team in Buffalo. It's a fraction of the population. Don't get me started on yardwork being a significant factor either. It's two hours work at the most for everyone except the worst of procrastinators on the day after Thanksgiving. Someone with this personality deficiency will show up at 5 PM for a noon kickoff. Good grief. You could start raking at 8 AM and be to the game by noon if you lived in Summit County. There are so many problems that contribute to poor late season MAC attendance, it's hard to pinpoint one. The lack of vision by the conference is malpractice. Worst of all, this isn't going to change any time soon.

Question: On Paper he looks great for the Program. However is he just another Transient? Meaning is He someone that just moves around for the next big thing? Or is Moorhead looking for Ringers just to get to 7 Wins to save his Job?

15 minutes left and Akron has a 4% lead with 52% of the vote if I'm not mistaken. Quite the push today from Zips fans.

There’s four wheels on a wagon, so I think the Zips and flashes should meet 4 times per year on the gridiron. If the season series ends 2-2, they can play a 5th “bowl game”. The first half is played at Kent Roosevelt, and the second half moves to Hoban’s field. Play the OT at Fawcett. It’ll be a Tik Tok sensation, which is all that really matters.

I just voted and they are now at 51%. Hopefully that'll stay. Also I feel like you should change your name to X/Tavari got robbed of POY.

Agree, while it sucks on many levels I hear so many people mention how they love watching the “MACtion” mid week games in November. It really does give MAC teams a certain level of national exposure. Has it really changed anything for those institutions? Probably not, so the impact is definitely debatable.

I mean...as much as I hate the midweek games, this isn't wrong.

Member of the Louisville state championship team. Considering he stayed local to play at Walsh, one would think Akron could convince him to stay in the area if he's someone the staff truly wants.

NE Ohio sports fans have been through so much heartbreak, we just can't enjoy anything without expecting the worst outcome. It's magnified online, especially on forums and Reddit.

My vote just now got it to 50%/50%

Help out the Zips Mangers by voting for them and advancing to go play in Indy! They must get to 51% by midnight or else they will miss out on this awesome opportunity.

Come on home

These are the figures that I saw. No school was close to $20M player spend this year. I'm guessing top schools next year will be around ~$15 million. I'm not sure if any school hits $20 million.

There is no drama outside of this board

I hear there's an ultralight flying of a remote clearing of grass in Hudson tonight headed for Chapel Hill, North Carolina, under the radar. I will continue to monitor and keep everyone advised.

Regardless, doesn't really matter. Go Zips!!

Based off this year's success, I wouldn't be surprised if both schools surpass $25M next season. I can't find any numbers but I'd guess Iowa's roster spend was north of $20M this season Edit: Iowa Swarm collective website is down ATM

HUGE!
