Looks like we'll now have to start a search for a new executive vice president for student success

Does EMU have 20 suites? Dining area? Team shop? HOF exhibits? Player/coach/booster lounges? It might end up being an apples to oranges comparison once we find out the planned/desired features.

Plus team travel/hotels, plus recruiting travel/hotels, plus uniforms & equipment, etc. Trainers? Tutoring? Just saying.. And thanks, Coach K. for declining Houston

The University of Akron is applying for a charter... Akron University said in a news release.... ..another daft reporter..

We have to be careful with all of these Z's everywhere that people aren't falling asleep at the games.

I like this board software, especially for the ease of navigation with return to forum links at the bottom of the page.

Just noticed the "Like This" button included on all posts. The very first time I clicked it I got a "quota exceeded" error message. Is it supposed to work for us on this board?

When JT becomes president this summer, what happens to our AD?

Where did Toledo, EMU, NIU, Ball U., Buffalo, OU, etc. get the money for their nice arenas? It would have been interesting if the ABJ had included this info when comparing the JAR with other MAC facilities..

Nice slide show article on Bleacher Report: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1773945...nes-win/page/11

TB is really putting his mark on the uni's. I trust that it will be an effective part of his recruitment and fan base marketing plan.

I think we have a good shot at beating UMass this year.

We beat JMU because of TD passes on crossing routes in the end zone. Pounding the ball for 2 yards at the goal line is not a gimme.

It may have been a sign of confidence, actually, if TB is thinking we can stay with them another half and it might come down to a close game at the end. Put the points on the board now, especially since they gave us a bad spot and decreased our chances of a first down. Too bad we missed the FG.

the decline was anticipated as part of a multi-year strategy to improve academic preparedness, retention and graduation rates for all students, according to UA Senior Vice President, Provost and Chief Operating Officer Mike Sherman. "Starting in 2006, we experienced a five-year period of tremendous growth—26 percent growth—with enrollment peaking in 2011," Sherman said. "The numbers we are seeing today are due, in part, to an enrollment strategy we instituted in the last two years. For example, we steered nearly 400 students this past year into programs at community colleges where they will be able to receive more preparatory courses and be better equipped to succeed in the initial stages of their higher education. This is a student success strategy that aligns with our college completion objectives."

I'll take the Zips +45

Watching the replay, it was an awkward, backpedaling pass off his back (right) foot with a JMU player coming hard. The replay doesn't show him running down the field after the throw but TB confirmed in his post-game interview that's how/when he injured the leg.

I didn't get to watch the replay but I seem to remember him gimping right after he made the throw (from where he made it) and saw that it was caught. It wasn't like he was in a dog pile in the end zone celebrating. I thought maybe he had twisted his knee or ankle while hoisting the long pass. Maybe someone will watch the replay and let us know.

Beat the spread. Use the paycheck to recruit a stellar class.
