Awesome! I see it as a win-win for both sides. The Browns can hold the popular event at an awesome stadium, and UA get's to show it off to thousands who may not have ever visited it otherwise. Hopefully this will encourage the Browns to hold training camp at UA in the future. I know they are entertaining the idea of moving it away from Berea and UA is easily the best option in NE Ohio. Unfortunately there just isn't enough room to hold it at Browns HQ anymore. No other college campus would be able to provide a brand new stadium and indoor practice field. Both with plenty of seating and parking for fans. Only downside is that the Browns will draw more fans than the Zips, regardless if it's a scrimmage or training camp.

I bet most of them remember the Michigan game last season. Follow it up with a win at Penn State, and see what happens from there.

@GP1 that's awfully cynical. Sure they know there is football at Akron, but have they ever been to the Stadium or the Campus? How many of those families (because it is family night) haven't been to UA before...and will get to see the campus/the football facilities. Most of them won't care, you're right, but some of them may leave with positive feelings towards the Akron program.

There isn't enough room for both teams. Wofford hosts the Panthers, but their practice area is at least twice the size of what Akron has and the fields are all close together. NFL teams don't want to practice inside in the fall unless they are forced inside by the weather. Same for college teams. However, there is always the "building process".

Floor seat season tickets will cost $100 per ticket, which includes $75 for the season ticket and a $25 donation to the Z-Fund. View the full article at www.GoZips.com

I believe Deji received the early season playing time in 2013-2014 because his approach to practice (preparation, attention, dedication, effort) is the anti-thesis of Harney's. I think the staff was either hoping this might rub off on some or simply refusing to reward minutes to players who weren't falling in line. I think this explains why they went with Deji a little longer than most of us wanted early in the season. I completely agree that once he was forced into more action later in the year Deji rose to the occasion. He clearly played his best basketball as a Zip over that period.

okay, I'll go with you. I need to wash my car before Sunday though and saturday was gonna be the day. lol
