  1. If this is true then achieving an Ohio State like status will never be achieved.....it is like a vicious cycle that some feel will never be broken..OSU always gets the best recruits then the rest is divided amongst the lowly MAC. I somewhat disagree. Other major programs recruit Ohio hard. Ohio is a very talent rich state.The entire nation recruits Ohio. OSU gets most, not all, of the best players. Other schools like, ND, Michigan, USC get some too. Akron could be a top tier mid major by just getting the leftovers of what the elite teams don't want. If we consistently beat BG, Cincy, Ohio, Miami, and Pitt for recruits, we will be a very good program.
  2. Buckzip, you just revealed the game winning play in this years bowl game!!! Darn, well maybe it will be Harveey throwing it instead. That would really blow someones mind. Oh wait, I mentioned that too. I better not even mention Johnny Long's name. oops.
  3. If Kathy Ireland was there, Domontkos wouldn't have a problem getting it up. I mean the football, you sickos.
  4. When I was at UA, I had a very nice BGSU sweatsirt. I didn't like BGSU, it's just a friend of mine went there, and bought me the shirt. I really liked the shirt. Back then we weren't in the MAC, so I guess it was ok.
  5. Vegas line is 1 1/2. I wonder of they think our kicking is so bad that we actually lose 1/2 point for being so bad on EXP.
  6. I wonder what those girls think Roo is. Gee, I wouldn't be fearing that...
  7. Hey, I am here for you bro.
  8. The campsu is just beautiful compared to when I was there.It is very hard to change perception. Most people still refer to it as Akron U.
  9. I still feel our biggest problem is our o-line. For some reason, Gtsy doesn't get much time, and the holes are not there for our backs.Speaking of offensive playcalling, why haven't we tried a receiver pass? Arthur is a former QB with a great arm. I would love to see it tossed to him, and let him pass it.Our halfback option is scouted. Our wr pass, if there is one, isn't.
  10. According to the roster, we aren't close to having used all of our schollies. Since we have had quite a few non qualifiers, the scholies are available.(sorry captain).
  11. NE Ohio is a great sports market. I don't feel that Cleveland Browns or Ohio State really affect UA as much as many want to believe they do.Other than true fans, people will only go see a consistent winner. The only exception I know of this is the Browns. They suck and still sell out.The Indians are a perfect example. When they started winning, they sold out every game. Now they are garbage again, and don't draw nearly as well.UA needs to win consistently. We are all excited about going to a bowl game last year, but we were still only 1 game over 500. If we start having consistent 8-3, 9-2 type seasons, I think many people will be surprised how much the team will be supported. The other problem, as we all know, is the Rubber Bowl. I am a true fan, and I hate going to that place. There are plenty of sports fans in this market that would support the Zips if they were given a reason to do it.
  12. I think you meant Steward. Roberts is the stud that didn't qualify this year.
  13. Actually just follow the smell.
  14. I can't ever remember a time in Zips football when we have had this bad of a kicker.We have always had pretty good kickers. I was never nervous about XP or short field goals before.Heckman, Alcorn, Klaus, just off the top of my head.
  15. BS. We score 4 TD's miss 2 XP and get a safety.
  16. 20-13 Zips. I think only 1 missed XP. Along woth 2 chip shot field goals.
  17. If we can get to a post season bowl game, that will help recruting tremendously.If we win it, that would be even better. The extra weeks of practice alone makes the team better.I think a lot of us, including me, lost a little confidence after the CMU game. However, a nice Can't ass whipping will go a long way to restoring that confidence.
  18. What a nice guy.
  19. Even if Igor is ready to play, he is a true freshman that hasn't practiced at all.It will take him a few weeks to get back into a groove. Even then, he is still a true freshman,
  20. Why won't you drive your car becaue of your license and stickers?Do you think Can't fans can read?
  21. If they are horrible, what does that make us?
  22. Wow, I remember accounting classes. Debits on the left, credits on the right.Can't State in the toilet.
  23. I agree. I hate burning a redshirt for mop up duty. If he is actually needed, that is different. The very few carries he receives at the end of the game don't really count as experience enough to burn the redshirt. We just need to trust JD.
  24. I don't see much bashing in this thread except Balki.
  25. Some of those are great. I wish I had a clue how to do that stuff.
