Like Hipsher and Dambrot?

Getting way ahead of ourselves and reaching for the stars all at the same time! When does Spring practice begin?

I'm been waiting for the "Tom's Next Endeavor" thread.

Wow. this guy is too good to be true

Another nice person but bad coach. The women's game is an absolutely different animal than men's, including playing with a smaller basketball. It's a lot more physical, so I wonder if there are always more turnovers in the women's game. that being said, the Zips women were incredibly careless with their possessions. Detroit was outrebounding them and on one play of the Akron players reached up, had the ball in her hands, and let it fall to the floor.

Detroit! Forced 22 turnovers. Titans would rip the ball right out of their hands.

If you search Joe Moorhead on Twitter, there are a number of tweets about him and Akron. Often the comments give you better information about Moorhead and what he will do. Some tweets are ignorant. One guy wrote...why would Moorhead go to Akron instead of Louisiana Lafayette or Louisiana Tech? Uh...maybe because he was run out of Mississippi after he referred to himself as a "Yankee" during a press conference.

Nothing good (see Maishe Dailey) has come out of Iowa since The Music Man.

I'd love to watch this guy chew up GT and Terry Pluto and spit them out. These Oregon reporters actually ask real football questions.

Moorhead had trouble with the Mississippi football culture (according to wiki).. ND may not be the deep South but it's in its own football universe. Akron would be low on pressure.

The women play the hapless Detroit Mercy tonight. If Jackson loses this one...

In general this is how someone's reputation easily gets destroyed in online media. Sports punditry is like political punditry. Although, I think sports pundits are likely more reliable.

Since we are losing our minds:

My nephew's girlfriend's brother goes to Mount Union. He apparently saw a Thomas Limousine come on campus and pick up Geoff Dartt and his wife. They were headed North on I-77.

Spencer Rattler.

He has enough bad memories here, including fumbling his way into the end zone which precipitated Arth's firing. He needs a fresh start. Don't blame him at all.

I'm bored: $725,000 in Eugene, Oregon: https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/85782-Lorane-Hwy_Eugene_OR_97405_M14029-44351 $567,000 in Akron, Ohio: https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/1538-Acacia-Dr_Akron_OH_44333_M34972-37001

at least no Bobby Petrino rumors....yet.

Eerily quiet.

First season he went to the Orange Bowl!! Lost all of his bowl games. Team was average after 2014. But the type of "average" the Zips haven't seen in a long, long time.

Catch him at the Marshall game on Wednesday. He will be walking around.

I've been all over the last search committee but they may have been severely hamstrung by the interim pres and the board. But Tom Arth? I had a queasy feeling when UTC was happy to get rid of him.

USC, Oklahoma, and Virginia Tech are sucking up all the talent. In a bidding war, Zips are going to lose.
