No other MAC school has a $5 million note payment every year for a facilitie that sits empty for 90% of the year. Multiple administration's have tried everything you could think of to create interest. A nice 15,000 seat stadium would have been perfect. Mack Rhoades and others were sure if we built it, they would come. They didn't come. JoMo knew what he was getting into when he agreed to be the man. There is plenty of blame to go around. Hopefully Goodrich can find a different type of unicorn. A rich donor who is willing to give millions to support football. Odds are that guy is going to want some input on who is running the program. People with that type of money expect a return on their investment.

We have donors who have contributed that much to Akron Athletics to create endowments. Just not for football. BTW, if you could share with me where I can get a guaranteed 10% return on my $2 million please send me a DM.

Here is the dilemma, neither party is happy. JoMo doesn't want to be here and powers that be don't want him to stay. If the optics weren't so bad, UA would just pay him off and send him on his way. JoMo holds all the cards. Hopefully he can find a job somewhere else and everyone will get what they want. I would rather take my chances on an up and coming guy who doesn't act like he is entitled to someone else doing all the heavy lifting required to engage the fans and community. That is the only way out of our football pit of Hell. JoMo will never be that guy.

Go Zips!

I knew I could count on you!

How bout the 250lb male Samoan piccolo player in the BGSU band!

It would cost 8-10 million to replace all the seating and reconfigure the layout at the JAR.

Jo must go

It's a video of Cathy Nesbit-Stein from Dance Moms teaching President Nemer and some of the guys the Cha-Cha. If this site had better upload capability I would post it.

She attends quite a few games every year. I see her in Tommy Evans on the regular.

Not anymore. Everyone has to get a wristband. They check.

Not a chance of that happening. The bew regime has really cracked down security.

Yep

Our take will probably match the NIL funds from all the directional Michigan's combined!

The courtside club is nothing new.

3 drops already

THAT would be high five worthy!

Larry Williams passed away today at the age of 62. More details as I find them.

Football at Fordham is an afterthought. Not much pressure from the alumni or community to have a big winner.

Today's scrimmage was by invite only. All I can say is Groce has a big problem on his hands. Too many good players and not enough minutes per game. Perkins and Henderson both look like they could play this year. Head and Evan Mahaffey looked solid. The Serb is going to be a matchup nightmare for our opponents. Scott buried at least 6 NBA range 3's. Overall a good showcase.

All these guesses at the starting lineup are fun. Just remember that Eric Mahaffey was penciled into the starting lineup last year until a knee injury sidelined him for the season. Under Groce, whoever plays the best during practice gets playing time. Every minute of every practice is graded by the coaching staff. Outside of the point guard we have a team full of multidimensional players. It's going to be a fun season.
