Agree, but not sure Florida is a fair comparison but check out Miami's

Exactly, it's very important and very needed. Akron has a great stadium and great indoor but the locker room and weight room are in desperate need of an overhaul. A facility in the end zone similar to Miami would be huge for the program

Winning games and MAC championships will get that done. Also need a new locker room and weight room overlooking the field in the North end zone. If Joe accomplishes what he thinks he can, changes will come.

We can only hope

Most places have the over/under Akron win total at 2.5. Seems like easy money taking the over. Beat SF and just squeeze out two conference wins.

Another one to check out now is On3.com. It is another rating service like 247 and Rivals. They do their own ratings but also come up with a combined rating of all three services. They are gaining a lot of traction in the recruiting world. I haven't looked up how our class of 23' compares on this vs Rivals and 247 but might be a good project for anyone willing to take it on - or maybe I will this weekend. Interesting, they have QB Steele Wasel as most likely going to Tulsa https://www.on3.com/db/steele-wasel-108253/

Looks like Irons has some finger damage on his left hand

You just don’t know. Some of his original offers may not be offers anymore. Ohio and Marshall may already have enough commits at his position and he no longer has theirs offers. So many factors involved that the general public doesn’t know about.

It’s not gonna be Tennessee, their quarterback and offense are electric - horrible matchup for the Zips D

St Francis - W Michigan St - L Tennessee - L Liberty - L Bowling Green - W Ohio - L Central Michigan - L Kent St - L Miami - L Eastern Mich - W Buffalo - W Northern Illinois - L I think the offense under JoeMo will be much improved, but unfortunately, I don't think that the defense will be good enough this year. At least that will make for some high scoring, entertaining games to watch. 4-8 Could surprise Ohio and make it to 5-7

Looks great, now I just really want to see some asses in the seats and some wins on the scoreboard!

Beautiful

I hope you're joking. You mean they aren't going to put the Akron wording on the 10 yard line either?

All logos and wording are sewn in

Maybe it’s just the lighting but the blue on the sideline definitely looks darker than the end zones

Anderson High School, Cincinnati 🤔

Actually, that blue almost looks more like a royal blue than the standard Akron navy blue.

Man that old turf looks tired!

Looks like all of his offers were in 2020. Something changed between now and then. Maybe he got in trouble? Maybe bad grades? Maybe really bad junior and senior years? His last offer was October of 2020, looks like Akron was his only option. Must have a lot of talent but there is obviously some baggage...

Turf replacement generally takes 4-6 weeks so mid July would be really pushing it. My guess is that maybe they are waiting until camps are completed and they will start late June.

Apparently this is a well kept secret

Does anyone know what the timeline is for the new turf installation? If they haven't started yet I assume they will start any day now so that it will be ready by August.

I assume Clark isn't listed on the roster because maybe he hasn't enrolled yet?

I love marching bands and I think they are a big part of the college football experience but nobody pays to go watch the band perform (except maybe their parents).

Maybe Mom should have been more concerned about his tardiness - that crap won't fly at the next level.. Everybody wants to be a victim these days.
