  1. DNA databasing is no more illegal, inappropriate or unconstitutional than a finger print data base. It's just an improved unique identifier and that's all it is. At first, I thought it kind of offensive, but strip away the emotions and histrionics and it only makes sense. For years now we've been finger printing people who want to be foster parents or adoptive parents. I was finger printed when I accepted my last job. I also had to pee in a cup. DNA testing will be the status quo. UA is ahead of the curve. That's all.Wow, actually agree with you.Also, UA only passed a rule that it "reserves the right to run a DNA background check". It's pre-emptive and based on speculative criminal justice trends.
  2. And you don't have to pay them as much because they live tax free. From what the RFQ stated the 1.7 million is for moving the pitch, doing embankments around the pitch, setting up a perimeter and having general seating for around 3700. It is specifically listed as Phase I and states that the completed project must allow for the building of locker rooms, concessions and a few other things that would allow it to be used during softball and baseball season (fan plaza type deal). Someone mentioned 12 million and that seems incredibly excessive considering Michigan is only having to spend 6 million on their new grand stands and press tower/Hmmmmm! Where did g-mann see this RFQ? Are Eff Who? Seriously, I think 3700 would be a serious size for a program! Now, let's get that 72 Roo Stadium built!RFQ - Request for QualificationsAsk and ye shall receive. (It's all public record if you know how to look for it.)I will correct myself, it states seating for 3400.
  3. Well as best I can tell one of their most important cities still stands, unlike any of that modern Aztec construction.Wow, never, ever imagined I might see Mayan vs. Aztec (well maybe if it was San Diego St) smack talk on this board. Never know what you're going to see in ZNO. It's a "New World" baby. Next you will be telling me the Mayans were superior to the Incans. You Mayan apologists frost my buns. I hope we aren't straying too far off topic.Well it depends on the definition of superior. The Mayans certainly had more favor with Kukulkan (Quetzalcoatl) (the great feathered serpent god) than the Incans ever did.
  4. Anyone who didn't think a top coach at a top program wouldn't be pursued by other schools is crazy.The question that has to be asked is this, is $250,000 worth moving to South Carolina to try and build a program at a school that really doesn't have much success in any program at the level they play. The bottom line is, other than the money Porter has everything he wants here, and he can go to Wistrcill and say "You've got to give me more money if you want to keep me." I think if the university can match that by 55 to 65% Porter would have no reason to leave. At some point, winning championships is more important than a big pay check (and he's closer to home here). Now if you had said Indiana was going to offer him, I would be worried.The bottom line is this. Proenza wants to be successful, he knows that in order to do so you have to have successful people. Deep down I think he knows that salaries for the coaches are going to have to go up if he really wants the athletics programs to start winning consistantly.

  7. But getting ND merely on the schedule and getting them to play Akron on the road are two totally different things. Really think they'd ever do that?Yes I do and I think it will be October 12, 2013.Well I know that can't be accurate, the Mayans said that the earth would end in 2012, so, I'm thinking 10/13/2012. Though the Mayan calendar also showed us playing OSU at the Q on 12/15/2011 so take that for what it's worth.Well if they said it it must be true. How is that whole Mayan Empire thing working out? Remember October 12, 2013.Well as best I can tell one of their most important cities still stands, unlike any of that modern Aztec construction.
  8. Aaargh! Way too much pressure!

  10. GP1 hates them out of jealousy. They get to live tax free (which is his libertarian desire). Also he knows that they are vastly superior wood craftsmen.
  11. Hmm, apparently losing to Washington is better than beating everyone you've played all season
  12. OK, but the link you have just goes right back to the 10/12 RPI list.
  13. You've got a lot to learn my friend...
  14. Isn't that better?
  15. No real better place to put this...In the latest Board actions, the University okayed the purchase of 485 & 501 E. Exchange (this was the proposed site of the Skyway Restaurant).
  16. ESPN
  17. Well, I mean if it was a bunch of ones than yeah. How am I supposed to carry that?
  18. Well I guess I will have to be ok with 50%.
  19. Thanks for the apology EA
  20. Well two things should come of this....1.) Zach should post an apology2.) He has to switch his name back to UAKid
  21. Thank you. I've been telling everyone the same thing
  22. Watch and enjoy, Fletcher is still here and Kenny Hayes, it will be fun.My best advice to you is change your name to Redhawkpuck and enjoy hockey season. Because you're yesterday's news in your other two major sports.
  23. It's a shame that the Beacon doesn't do more, and where is the nightly news coverage?I mean not just soccer, Jenna and Stevi won individual national championships. What because they are "olympic sports" it's less important? I still say what kills the school from gaining attention is the lack of a real media presence here in Akron.
  24. the injury or the NCAA bid
  25. I'm still calling BS on this until you put up some legit evidence.When did it occur, where did you hear the rumor etc.
