  1. The extra money they get will more than make up the difference in travel costs. The other sports will most likely end up in the Horizon.
  2. They won't be the last one to leave.
  3. It's still early in the game. All the cards haven't been played yet. After the CFP is over, I would expect another reshuffle of the deck.
  4. Maddie should be back soon. Kam,Ren suffered an ACL injury in the Hamilton game. Riley is out for personal reasons. It looks like an 8 person rotation for the foreseeable future.
  5. The players have all bought into the delusion that they will end up with a lucrative NIL deal or perhaps a chance at making a splash at a P4 program. We are living in an instant gratification, YOLO era.
  6. He was drowning in the ocean and we threw him a life ring. As soon as he was safe, he threw us overboard.
  7. Throw the hotdog. The guy is a lowlife.
  8. Sorry that your life hasn't worked out as planned. You should seek out some counseling instead of making rants on a sports fan message board
  9. It's always 5 o'clock somewhere!
  10. Exactly! As long as other departments and organizations can use athletics as a negotiating tool to protect their turf, things will never improve. If other programs had to operate under the financial reporting requirements fostered on Athletics, every one of them would look terrible.
  11. They might have paid $10. It's all they can afford!
  12. Can't read, Can't write Can't State!
  13. Don't take my comments as personal criticism of your ideas. I wish there were an easy way to raise the money too. Expand the quote boxes to see my comments.
  14. 448 teams make the playoffs across 7 divisions.
  15. Everything was fine with athletics at the mid majors until the injection of big sums of money generated by cable TV. Then it became an arms race they had no chance of winning. Once the folks down on the farm were able to watch top notch competition for free on TV, why would they continue to support the local college? NIL and free agency will be the final nail in the coffin for the MAC and their ilk getting any notoriety on a national level. All that's going on right now in football is just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. I can hear the band playing.
  16. When diamonds are mined they are in a raw form. It takes time and a skilled technician to create the facets that turn them into something of value and beauty.
  17. That project has been in the works for quite a while. Glad to see it getting completed.
  18. You're reading way to much into this. Brookhart's Summit Circle announcement had nothing to do with Guthrie's departure. Most of those announcements take place weeks after the commitment was made.
  19. Red Panda sighting at the Cavs tonight!
  20. That game was in 1969.
  21. That game was actually in the 1969 season. It was my very first Akron football game.
