There is an interesting series of pictures of the UConn pregame where coach Moorehead is talking with the QBs. The posture and attentiveness is what grabs me. Rogers is standing straight, listening and the CJs don't seem to be paying attention.http://uaim.dyndns.info/photo_galleries/_A...ce/uconn051.htm

Must have been A LOT of bad calls by the refs.

Not sure I understand the reason for the 3rd option.

So would you rather he talked about Ohio State?

Love ya Joe!!!!!!

Oh, and if Zippy loses the Capital One Bowl.........that will definately create chatter.....VOTE FOR ZIPPY

Here are the near term bandwagons to jump on to increase activity............Men's Soccer - beat Ohio State........people will get jazzed, lose......see ya for a while. Hopefully we stay ranked, if not, there will be chatter about inferiority of the conference.......yada yada yadaFootball - a win against Can't State will start something. Loss, the chatter will surround JD and it will be nothing but bitching for the rest of the year....... (personally I think the team is going to kick ass and CJ is going to make everyone remember he is one of the highest rated recuits we have ever had). Basketball is going to be exciting for a long time. There is no reasone to hold back, buy your season tickets now or regret it. KD is cool.

Akron fans wait for the teams to become worthy of their support.........there are no bandwagons to jump on right now.

I posted on Macbbs. See if our fellow MAC brothers help.

Why are you suprised? Isn't this indicative of Zip fans.

Just want to recognize our premier sports team.............the Futbol club!Congrats on winning the Westfield Cup. Kick ass in N.C. and send a message we are still pissed about our ranking two years ago and getting stiffed last year.I predict two NCAA Championships in the next four years. No kidding! They look THAT good.

What is the attendance like

So what is th excuse now?Broken down stadium?Fiberglass seats with spinters?Poor Opponent?Prices too high?Lousy team?Who's fault is it? Help me out..........Yea, lets build a new stadium!

What day was that? How much time had he spent with the team?

A couple other names not mentioned.................Ed Grimsley(LB) he was an animalRon Pasquale (G)Russ Klaus (K) played 1 or 2 years, strong leg, signed with Eagles

Is there anyone left from our recruiting class?

Thanks for helping me with the math, I was having a hard time with that one.

Quick question.............are the dorms, stadium, etc. all going to be finished as one project or is it phased?OK, one more question........there is a building at the end of one of the endzones that was just a grass berm in previous renderings. What is it?

It is even nicer than previous pictures I have seen!

I was recruited and played for coach Dennison. I was there during the transition and I can tell you that much of the resentment towards Faust was surrounded more by how the administration handled everything. It has taken a long time to recover from the moves that were made back then. Here are a few of the lowlights;We just finished one of the best seasons in school history making the 1-AA playoffs under Coach Dennison and then he was fired (Mark Dantonio left for Youngstown). Attendance was probably as good as it ever was that year.Gerry was given a blank check to start up the program and had an all-star coaching staff come in that included Foge Fazio and Terry Bowden to name a few. Bob Huggins was our basketball coach. We won the OVC and almost beat Michigan in the NCAAs(the Fab 4). He was making great strides. When the $$ went to Gerry, Huggins went to Cincy.Soccer went to the National Championship and barely lost to Duke.First year football attendance was good but declined after mediocre seasons.From that point on - Football floundered, Basketball floundered, and attendance went down.Personally, I think we would have made it in to the MAC without Faust and would have loved to see Coach D be the man to do it.It has taken nearly 20 years(man am I old) to recover from those decisions.Was it Gerry's fault? Not neccessarily, but he was the man we mortgaged all our sports programs on.
