That's my hope as well (although "peppermint blue with a dash of sea green" makes me feel a little bit better about it 😅) Pretty sure the actual color is Sherwin Williams #6456 - Monkey Snot. Actually, I'm pretty sure that's glass so I guess they wouldn't paint over it. Some kind of larger Kaulig signage wouldn't surprise me either which I'm all for if he's pumping in the dough.

Besides which, the JMU and ODU mascots are almost identical.

Kind of doubt it; it's the off season and they have 4 months to get someone. Why make the players and recruiting process go through the extra transitioning. -

Bob Huggins To Be Inducted Into HOF
ZippyRulz replied to clarkwgriswold's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/bob-huggins-to-resign-at-west-virginia-hall-of-fame-coach-will-step-down-from-post-in-wake-of-dui-arrest/ According to the criminal complaint filed by the Pittsburgh Police Department, Huggins' blood alcohol level read .210 — nearly three times the legal limit and an intoxication level so dangerous it can hospitalize some adults. Empty beer cans and bottles were found in trash bags on the passenger side floor and in the trunk of Huggins' school-issued SUV. An empty cooler that appeared to have been recently used was also in the vehicle. The arrest came around 8:30 p.m. ET in Pittsburgh. Huggins was initially spotted outside of his car by an officer due to his GMC Yukon Denali blocking traffic after suffering a shredded tire. Huggins, 69, was unable to explain why his tire was destroyed and could not tell police what city he was in. "Huggins could not tell us how he got to Pittsburgh," the criminal complaint states. Huggins provided police with a receipt from a Burger King in Washington, Pennsylvania, which sits 28 miles southwest from where he was arrested. The Burger King receipt was timestamped from seven hours earlier in the day. When questioned by police, Huggins could not detail what he'd been doing in the time between, and according to the complaint, didn't understand what police were asking him. Huggins also told police he believed he was in "Columbus," presumably in reference to Columbus, Ohio, a city nearly three hours and 185 miles west from Pittsburgh. "Officer Bertan asked Huggins approximately 10 times where he was actually at, and he never once responded with the current city he was in," according to the arrest report. Huggins failed multiple field sobriety tests and was released on bond Saturday. He has a preliminary hearing forthcoming, the date not yet having been determined. -

Waynedale (Apple Creek - near Wooster) won a title last year and is back, playing their Div. III semifinal Friday at 4:00, which I understand can be streamed. Some potential backyard talent for the Zips(?)

Nothing about UA in the video but from the comments: Pilletta Doinswartsh 10 days ago (edited) I graduated in 1986 in Electrical Engineering. Our class started with about 180 sutdents. Only 30 graduated. I nearly didn't make it, myself. The junior year was rrrrrough. I had four extremely demanding courses at once. It got so that I couldn't keep up with all the homework (8-10 hours a day, even on weekends), so I had to pick one class to just audit, because I couldn't survive all four. The professor for that class (Digital Circuits) saw me not turning in homework, and failing the tests, and he took me into his office, gave me back my test (F!) and told me "you will never be an engineer." But I proved him wrong. Even got on the dean's list my senior year. Anyway, learn how to study, how to take notes, AND visit all of your professors once a week. Get to know them. Make them get to know you. You're paying their salaries. USE THEM. 41 Reply 7 replies mkdir 8 days ago It used to be a lot harder pre-Internet as well. Digital is so important, and yet its taught so poorly I find. I'm 3rd year now and see the importance of it, but when I was first introduced to Digital, it seemed so stupid and was taught so badly. 1 Reply kc cheung 6 days ago (edited) May I know which university ? Start with 180, and only 30 survived. Too tough, wasn't it ? 1 Reply Pilletta Doinswartsh 6 days ago @kc cheung University of Akron in Ohio. I was told by a professor that it would be hard. He told us to look around the room. Then said only about 1 in 6 of you will graduate. He said it's because Electrical Engineering is a controlled profession. They make the major hard enough to weed out 5/6 of the class.

I expect the 2023 roster to be settled around mid-season. We may or may not have a depth chart by the end of the season.. -

Piece by piece, demolition crews tear down the remnants of the iconic Akron Rubber Bowl. It will be interesting to see what they do with the hillside.

I hope that means the regular kickers have 50-yard range.
