  1. There were x number of Republicans voted into office last go around. I am guessing less than half of them are what I would call "conservative", at least by my definition.

  2. Johns started spring semester, the rest of new players reported in early June. Freshman have to live in dorms (they are in them already for summer stuff) & after your freshman year you can live in house just off campus. NCAA schollies have changed significantly, Freshman & players who live in dorm have all expenses covered for education, room & board & food plus a few hundred a month for other expenses. If you elect after your freshman year to live off campus you lose the room & board & food part of your schollie & instead of a few hundred a month for expenses you get a little over 1k a month for your expenses. Hope that answers your ? They did 3 weeks of conditioning & lifting in June. I don't think coaches are allowed to coach during this time but coach Sleeve & his group work them pretty hard & from my understanding the upperclassmen lead drills on the football field. They are in summer 1 classes, they were off the football grind last week & returned this week. This week is the last week of summer 1 classes. In August camp starts & it is an all day job. i know some of the local players from coaching in area and always ask a bunch of ?'s when I see them around.

  3. Of course. I'm just a moron in my 50's who doesn't understand politics, loves to discriminate against people, and is tensely waiting for the Millennials Apocalypse to take over the nation's elections. All of which also has nothing to do with the current Republican dominance of elected offices, voted in by this country's supposed "liberal majority". Maybe they're just mistakenly coloring in the wrong circle on the ballot I actually had no idea that urban centers vote overwhelmingly for democrats, which has long been the obvious reason for the situation in _______________(fill in any major city in America here). And I also don't know a thing about districting of house seats (which, by the way, mix urban and rural areas in many cases). Thanks for enlightening me. However, several of the major categories on that list are STATEWIDE or NATIONWIDE voting, which has nothing to do with where the population is concentrated within those states. It actually amuses me that so many are still piling on to their mountain of excuses 8 months after the latest wave of Conservatives were voted into office. Should I mention that they are also 5-0 in races since November too (despite their expert predictions to the contrary)? Maybe it will prompt another highly intellectual "you don't know what you're talking about" response? Followed by several more paragraphs to follow which will serve to educate me, and will certainly include something about the lack of Millennial-like righteousness in my life ?

  4. Any doors that have been closed on Millennials were not closed by anyone arguing on this board. They were closed by the fiscal criminal negligence of the previous two or three generations. No your hard work will not pay off. It can't. It's what they teach you in macro-economics 101. If your nations GDP runs in a major deficit for a long time and you have to borrow massive debt from other nations, your Standard of Living absolutely must suffer an economic correction. Cut right down to the core of the matter, if your nation as a whole is producing less and buying more, you need to produce more to offset your debt or pay for it with lower standard of living. There are no good high paying jobs for making things because on-the-whole, you aren't buying your own things as a national economy. There are ways to offset the loss of your standard of living. Tricks that the government and fed does. Borrowing and printing money are the most obvious. If you think the doors are closing now, just wait. The real correction hasn't really even started yet. You can thank everyone from the boomers to Gen-X. You're Fukkked! Political parties have nothing to do with it. They were and are all corrupt and criminally negligent arseholes, and they are untouchable.

  7. Just added both of the new guys. Brings us to 11. I'd like to see a LB or two added to this class, and a QB. But i'd imagine those guys will be making up their minds later?

  10. What a great interview. Good questions, and good answers by DeAndre. Only question I would like to know the answer to is, would you have liked to shadow Corey Davis this year, and has your scheme ever included shadowing (I think no, but would like to hear his comments)? Corey lined up all over, as opposed to Boyd (strictly at the Z) as DeAndre refers to. My favorite answer (of many): DeAndre Scott: My time at Akron was one to remember. Coming in, in 2012 as a mid-year freshman not knowing who my coach was gonna be at the time and not having a clue what I was in for. It turned out to be one of the best decisions of my life. Graduated and earned my degree as well as helped build a program that wasn’t used to seeing success and being apart of a bunch of devoted guys/coaches to change the culture around the university and program it made me cherish Akron even more. It helped me grow into the person/player I am now. Definitely an experience I wouldn’t trade for anything.
