Lonzo Ball?

Akron is not very good and will not be any good with this staff. Are we better than with the last coach? Well, yea, but that is like being the thinnest kid at fat camp. This team has reached their apex under TB. If we are happy with 5-7 with an occasional 6-6 season, then this is your guy. Of course since we are so used to losing, that looks good. But if we want to be regular contenders in the MAC, we need to move to someone else. I thought, if nothing else, that TB could recruit well at Akron. He has not. He takes a lot of risks that rarely pay off. Maybe it is time to take a chance on a lower division coach that wins even though he is a lower division. I know that is where TB came from, but he already had a track record and wasn't a young upcoming coach. I don't know the answer, but we will not win with this staff. I can deal with a lot of things with a coaching staff. But the constant lack of discipline this team shows year after year is absolutely ridiculous. After Nelson had his PF, taunting an injured player, he should have been yanked and another QB put in. Like I said earlier, I doubt TB even says much to him.

Some of us have been awake for a while but are sick of getting attacked for even thinking TB isn't the answer.

If we were an average MAC team a would be better.

I am finding it hard to like this kid even if he proves to be a great player.

If you are a homer that wants to just say I am trolling, then please don't read any further. If you only want rah rah and say how great everything is, then please don't read any further. if you want to have an open and rational discussion, then let's do it. NIU beat Beat Nebraska today. other MAC teams have beaten big time programs every year. When is Akron just going to be competitive with a major program? Not that ISU is major, but they are above the MAC. Before you want to call me a troll, until I moved out of state I was at nearly every home game and at least 2 road games every year. What some call trolling, I call being a passionate fan. I am sure certain mods will delete this thread because they don't want real discussion, so be it. I know some hate me here because I happen to have graduated from 2 different schools, but I can guarantee you that I have been to many, many, many more Akron games than to my other Alma Mater. I am tired of the lack of discipine of Bowden and his teams. I am sick of the lack of discipline. I lost count of how many stupid personal fouls there were in this game. And most were well deserved. Woodson whines non stop. Bell facemasks when a guy is wrapped up in a pile for 4th down, Kato comes in down by a ton and actually taunts a down player on the side line. Then after a nice pass, he throws a horrible pick and then starts crap on the ISU sideline. If he can grow up, he could be a real player in the MAC. That's a big IF. I doubt TB even says anything to him. Every time they show TB he is just standing there. He isn't talking to his team, his assistants or anyone. He is just watching like a fan. I did see him clap after an ISU first down though. Our recruiting is below average and there is no sign of it getting better. I don't want to hear how many verbals we have when most have Akron as their best offer. If the others have great senior seasons and get other offers, they will be gone too. Then of course, I would guess less than 2/3 of the current verbals actually ever show up on the game day roster. Best facilities and stadium in the MAC, yet we aren't better than when we were in the Rubber Bowl and didn't have the Stile Field House. The really sad thing is I don't know if we can get better than TB. SMH. Now go ahead and attack. i could not care any less.

Now an INT. Now you talk more crap on the opponent sideline. Grow the F up.

Nice pass. Now taunt some more.

WTF Nelson. I see you have that same lack of discipline the rest of the team does. Look at the scoreboard before you talk crap next time dude. SMFH.

It will not. Nebraska would beat us like PSU did. No worries though because we have a bunch of verbal recruits right now. Some of them actually have offers from other D1 schools. I predict some of them actually make it to campus. ?

Look we stop them on 4th down and another PF. Like I said, no discipline.

Look another facemask call. Why do you need to facemask when you have the guy bottled up. No discipline on this team.

Does TB coach during games? Whenever they show him he is just watching the game. No emotion and he's not even talking. He just looks like a fan minus the emotion.

I was joking. We've given it away twice. They tried to gIve it away 3 times but recovered each time.

Can we count the first half as a moral victory? ?

We have no speed on defense. They turn the corner every time. We we were competitive for a half.

BS call.

Finally get a dropped pass and a PF called. Bad call imho.

Yep.

Look, another TD pass and JG on the supposed coverage again.

Geesh.

Someone needs to let the defense know halftime is over.

Get the ball first after halftime.

Sweet. Left too much time though. ?

We need this score badly.
