Position Preview (and updates) - Quarterback
Captain Kangaroo replied to catdaddyp's topic in Akron Zips Football

I hope they change the game time to 7pm. Probably not happening, but Iād be happy if it did.

A coach at the D1 level recently told me - "You combat the portal with culture." I think "culture" in one of the most overused terms in sports today. Because every coach claims their culture is outstanding. But Groce has the proof to back his claims of culture up. Ali left, but then returned. If Freeman weren't happy with his coach and teammates, he'd have bolted the Zips like 98% of the G5 players in his situation. Tribble is an outstanding kid. LCJ stuck around. The examples are endless. We don't see any Zips players getting into fisticuffs, jail, or even just clowning opponents after made shots. These Zips represent the University extremely well, and the culture Groce has established is the foundation.

10 career TDās and 13 INTās? Seems like weād have a seamless transition from Undercuffler?

Game 12- St. Bonaventure
Captain Kangaroo replied to clarkwgriswold's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Seen way too many close Zips losses against upper tier competition. I thought in a year where we are so senior- and talent-heavy we could beat a team like St Bonny on a neutral court. Insteadā¦another one in the loss column. -

Akron Zips Basketball All-Time Leaders
Captain Kangaroo replied to Zippy87's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Can you be underrated and have your jersey in the rafters? -
And, a program that has nothing to do with āSauceā Gardner or Spud Webb.

Class of '24 Recruits & Verbal Commitments
Captain Kangaroo replied to Blue & Gold's topic in Akron Zips Football Recruiting
Simmons played a fair amount in his first 2 seasons. Not so much the last 2. Hit the portal after 4 games this season, and has 2 years eligibility remaining. -
Need to bottle that halftime speech.

Would an A-10 program hand it's reins over to a guy with zero head coaching experience? I'd be surprised. Three years as an assistant at Cleveland State, and 2 years under Dambrot is a great resume for the Tiffin job, but is that really going to beat VCU, Dayton, St. Bonaventure, and the rest? Groce probably has a better shot at the job.

I can't believe he didn't mention tarping-over seats?

A Few Guthrie Quotes within
-
It would be nice if all the affected schools stood together and said "FU, our kids are playing" and ignored the NCAA.
-
The Zips have a former Army RB on staff, so that, plus the fact that we can essentially guarantee a starting job, gives me a tiny bit of hope we could land him.

There's no turning back the clock. First time transfers will never return to the days of sitting out a season. The only question will be - will the NCAA go back to just letting everyone transfer as they please with no limits and no sitting out? An easy fix to Clarke's problem - if a coach leaves or gets fired, players can transfer with no limits. Everyone else sits a year. It'll never happen...but that's the fix.
