A practice interview never hurt anyone I suppose. Has MJ seen our new facilities? I like the way he communicates, from the video that was posted upthread.

If thats true,good for him. He deserves another shot. Maybe he learned something. Thats his alma mater isn't it? Yes, he was a receiver there.

Wow....wouldn't that be something. JDB must certainly have the football bug.

Did you actually read what Foster said about Akron? "On Monday, Foster offered a glimpse into what sort of head coaching gig he’s looking for, openly discussing the vacancies at Memphis and Akron. Both fired their coaches after just two seasons and the Hokies defensive coordinator labeled the two schools as “coach killers” right now. “Their administration is crazy,” Foster said. “They’ve got false visions of grandeur.” Pretty much saying Akron sucks, and always will. He must think that the "Coach killers" should have given their coaches more time. In all honesty our coach was killed our program and not the other way around. He should check his facts.... +1. This is ironic coming from a coach at a program that used to be a perennial doormat...before they got the right coach in Beamer.

Not at all. Coaches/AD's lie like a rug all the time to stop or slow down a media frenzy. We just saw it with Urban Meyer. Do you hear any Buckeye 'faithful' complaining that they just hired a liar in UM? And we also see that most Zips fans or wannabe fans will quickly overlook JT's transgressions if he brings success here.

The Arkansas OC is now off the board.....to UAB.

I drove by this stadium yesterday. It is absolutely beautiful in person. Looks nice but why not expand the sideline seating before adding end zone seats?

Cite?

So much for that prediction....

Mike Thomas does the deed. Maybe we could contract MT for our search committee. I wonder who the Illini will go after now?

would jt want to work for tw? he was coach and ad at ysu -could he coexist nicely with hoops and soccer? will i ever get used to typing on this tablet?

Welcome. Here is the 'evolution of Zippy': http://gozips.com/zippy/AboutZippy Here is the bulletin on our round-of-16 NCAA tournament soccer match Sunday (w/stats & video links) http://gozips.com/sports/msoc/2011-12/rele.../20111121a3iais Of course that might be at an odd hour for you, being on the other side of the globe. Oh well...cheers!

Ron Zook may become available. He is from NE OH (Loudonville) and I doubt if he'll get another BCS HC opportunity after Illinois.

For what it's worth, on the WVU (v. Pitt) broadcast today, during the scores rundown at halftime, when they mentioned the WMU/Akron score they said that "RI would probably lose his job" (but no source was cited).

If he gets another job, which he will, we only pay the difference. He's not gonna sit on his ass for three years and collect a paycheck, otherwise he'll never get back in. We'll only end up eating a very small fraction of this contract. small fraction? With the last two years on his resume, who is going to pay him a large fraction of what he currently gets? Last year at OSU, Luke Fickell made about $200k. I expect Ianello to end up getting paid somewhere between $100k and $150k as a BCS position coach. So in a best-case scenario we're on the hook for maybe 2/3rds of his salary. You might consider a math refresher course. Sounds to me like Zach is speculating that if RI is fired and gets a BCS asst. job he might make about 1/3 of his current salary there. 3/3 - 1/3 = 2/3 that we would still have to pay...I guess I need the same refresher course(?)

Virginia loses to Delaware...works for me.

Are you at the game? Wondering how the attendance is..

WVU has advanced. Do we know where they're taking their soccer program after joining Big12?

Aw, rat farts. Stay calm and carry on!

All of our starters have been on the field the entire games, per gametracker at the 54:00 mark..

That would probably be it..

Whats the Troy connection?

Thanks for letting us know. He was a great supporter of his sons and their teams.
