  1. Is now well-known and still revered by the theeOSwho legions...would bring an instantaneous attendance boost. I hate that he is now tarnished goods but it's not unlike the KD situation. We could reignite the YSU rivalry (home only). Probably wouldn't help our results against the SEC much Are we ready to wear blue/gold sweater vests? Does Macy's carry them? I'm pretty sure our team shop does not...yet. Oyyy.. Would he overshadow TW and the other athletics? I wouldn't want to introduce any jealous rivalries w/soccer, etc.
  2. It's great to know the Info will be used for something that's actually entertaining (in addition to the UAMB).
  3. We should keep an eye on ADscoop.com as well...
  4. I'd rather not talk about the post Zeke era Fear not. The coaching staff is diligently recruiting a pair of big men. Are they good free throw shooters?
  5. I think the nickname should be "Turtle Wax" because he protects the paint
  6. I would guess he's here at least thru next year regardless. The problem you have at an Akron is if you fire a coach too soon it may scare away other quality candidates from the hiring pool...that's been openly talked about before. Although GF, LO & JDB were fired, they each had plenty of time with at least 1 contract extension. That and the new facilities led to the excellent pool of candidates we had this time around but failed to capitalize on.
  7. TW didn't hire CP. Lolla had the program in great shape with the talent pipeline already established. CP took over and has the ability to win NC's here so there's not a strong incentive to leave (as long as he prefers working with the college guys rather than pros). I don't think TW gets a pass on football because CP stayed. He might have some brownie points for getting the soccer stadium upgrade donations so quickly, if indeed he was the one responsible...I don't know.
  8. Then you have to look at who hired TW. It looks like the Bobinski-Thomas-Rhoades string of progress is over and Proenza now looks bad whether he keeps TW or admits the mistake and fires him. My guess is he may be pressured to resign and/or an "assistant head coach" will be brought in to bolster iCoach for the next couple years.
  9. He's a horrible coach. The guy is clueless. Waiting all of these years for his "big break" at his alma mater might have been the biggest mistake of his career. He's 2 months away from being unemployed. I'm guessing that the Week 2 near-loss to Toledo had already put him on shaky ground, and the Miami and Michigan State games have put the nail in the coffin. He was just thrown in for this year until they can get the ducks in a row to bring in Meyer next year.
  10. So would the betting public. We came within 1/2 point of covering the spread so at least it was a moral victory.
  11. That's how you pass to the TE. Time to go do some chores. Surprise me, Zippers!
  12. 35-13 in the 4th at home...for shame, Temple!
  13. If we could have got 2 yards on 3 plays for a 1st down; if we get a FG snap off in time and convert it; if we don't miscommunicate on a TD pass play................. if we could throw to Chisholm or Ladrach.....
  14. 3 stinky plays followed by 2 stellar plays...what a quick reversal. JDunn is the swami.
  15. Too bad the team shop doesn't still carry the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP merchandise, at reduced prices, to promote the team & school
  16. I didn't even know about the Center Ice facility there by the airport...when was it built? Their link to the Akron hockey page is broken.
  17. BE replay officials should already be in the bottom 10.. Waiting list: ACC's weekend, Akron (1-3), Big East replay officials, Boston College (1-3), Buffalo (1-3), Central Michigan (1-3), Dragonfly swarms in Miami, Elevators in Buffalo, Free flights to Tennessee, Idaho (1-3), Indiana (1-3), Can't State (1-3), Louisiana-Monroe (1-3), Marshall (1-3), Miami (Ohio) (0-3), North Texas (1-3), Ole Miss (1-3), Rice (1-2), San Jose State (1-3), Scooter rides in Tallahassee, South Carolina's passing game, Star Wars references, Texas A&M's turnovers, Utah State's finishes, Western Kentucky (0-3).

  18. "Binky the Doormat": The Gophers have become the doormat of the Big Ten after losing to FCS foe North Dakota State 37-24 at home last week. Minnesota also lost to South Dakota in 2010. Thank goodness there's no East Dakota. Wow. They opened their new stadium in 2009 also.

  20. He may get 200+ today At 191...he probably could/should come out very soon.
  21. Ohio, Temple, Toledo are strong...would be great for the Zips to be a spoiler this year..
  22. The Rockitt up 3 on the Orange in the 4th. Owls getting their BE resume ready.. Toledo at the Syracuse 9 yard with 1:13 left. Syracuse up by 3. Brian Kelly gets the win at Pitt.
