He is doing so good it got the coach fired. UB fires football coach Jeff Quinn

Woodson has been able to practice with the first team all week. I expect him to have better timing with the receivers and a game plan suited to his talents. I hope we run the ball more on first down and use the read option to use his running ability.

The only way to be able to watch during the I - hole years was to have a stiff drink before the game.

Sorry Keener, I didn't mean to offend you. I just thought it was a silly picture.

My mental picture of Keeners computer desk.

If you are planning to go to Charleston and like to golf, there will be a golf outing for Zips fans on Saturday. George Van Horne is putting this event together so you need to contact him if you would like to participate. He can be reaches at 330-972-8255.

Partially torn MCL.

It was the left tackle Osbourne. He totally wiffed on his man.

Way too much cover 2 defense called by the coaches at the end of both halves made the score closer than it should have been. Our defense is at its best when in attack mode.

I'm bringing one German with me. Should I bring him by to meet your 10 Germans? He is just starting to figure out American Football.

Dru Joyce has done pretty good playing in Germany. Oldenburg He just signed with a new team that plays in a better league. Braunschweig

Until Big Dogs hand heals, the lineup will be in flux. Cheatham will be Pats backup and Aaron Jackson might be seeing some minutes at the 4 spot.

MSU AD upset by student section It's not just us guys.

I saw him too. Can't coach size. Did you see how big EMU's center was?

Including the one that resulted in a field goal after a bad no call on pass interference in the end zone.

Robotham will be the starter unless he falls flat on his face. Jackson will get some time at the 2 in addition to backing up at pg.

Harney, Diggs,Betancourt and Evans combined for 87 minutes per game last year. That's almost 1/2 of the minutes for each game. I am quite confident that Betancourt will not be getting 17 minutes a game this year. Neither will Evans get 21 minutes a game. We still will only have 3 seniors on this team including Evans. We are going to have 2 true freshman point guards and and 2 redshirt freshmen getting significant minutes.

Nate will be in NE Ohio this week as his team, Tel-Aviv Maccabi Electra, will be playing the Cavaliers in an exhibition game on Sunday At 6pm. The game will be broadcast on FSO. New Cavs coach David Blatt led Tel-Aviv to the Euro title last season.

The only way most of those teams will come to the JAR is if we pay them. The basketball program has had their budget cut for at least the last 5 years. KD be lives that the money he does have is better spent on amenities that will help recruiting. Things like the player lounge. Until football starts to pull their weight and start paying their way, things are going to be the same.

Knowledge does not always equal wisdom Dave.

Jimmal has retired from a 14 year career playing professionally in France. He has returned to Akron to finish his degree and is working as an intern in the department of development under George Van Horne. Jimmal is one of my all time favorite Zips players. Jimmal has many spots in the all time records at UA including being the career steals leader with 242. Jimmal also scored 44 points in a Zips classic at the JAR vs Xavier in the 96-97 season. He still looks like he could suit up and play for the team. http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmal_Ball

I would describe this kid as shorter version of Zeke. A rim defender with an offensive game that is a work in progress. I understand that he has only been playing basketball for a few years so he is a blank slate that the staff can mold into a viable D1 player.

Big Shots Camp Rick McFadden hard at work.

Here's another highlight video from the local TV affiliate. Looks like he has a pretty good offensive game to me. Lots of nice footwork around the basket. Local TV http://bcove.me/u9gbrpwf

Wow! The kid hasn't even started his Senior year in highschool and you have already written him off based on one video.
