Steal Terry Bowden's Offensive Coordinator?? RichRod!

If only NCAA D-1 football can provide revenue to support a D-1 athletic program, please explain the following examples: UC-Santa Barbara, Long Beach State, Cal State Fullerton, UC Irvine (I think they had football), Cal State L.A (my cousin's ex-hubby QB'ed their last team in the 60s before downgrade and elimination) ALL dropped their D1-A football programs nearly thirty years ago (50 for CSLA) and never looked back. I think all of these schools provide the same number or more athletic programs than Akron. I maintain MAC membership alone forces UA to maintain this athletic albatross. Edit: UC-Irvine never had a football program. I was thinking of Cal State Northridge (CSUN) which dropped football at the same time as UCSB, LBSU and CSUF.

I work at Pearl Harbor. Send me a jersey and I'll find out how well it goes over!

U. of Portland Pilots. PSU doesn't have men's soccer.

All I have is a black screen. Is that because it's halftime??

Why doesn't ESPN have stats available for this game? Or much of anything?

At West Virginia - First MAC league match
Z.I.P. replied to TennZip's topic in Akron Zips NCAA Championship Soccer
I get the feeling often that Akron's team spends a lot of time early in games kind of "feeling" out the opponent's defense and the tempo of the game -- like a prizefighter. Then, the second half, they get it more and begin attacking more incessantly. Let's hope our attack is fruitful this second half. We're definitely in this game! -
6-0 PG from Cicero, IL verbally committed to @ZipsMBB. https://twitter.com/YnRbball/status/1435793849058738178?s=09

Yee Haw! Going to get to see my fave team beat my least!

Congratulations to whoever had the idea of changing to an amateurish non-football logo for the football team in order to take the heat off the amateurish football team and their D-3 coach. #GoTeam!

Nice win for the BeeGees and #MACtion. Zags are a very competitive program. Have to compete in tough, competitive WCC, and vs UW and Seattle, rising programs in their own state. While the Zips were in Seattlein 2019, I have a feeling another NW road trip could be coming. Portland anyone?

I've noticed "Bally Sports" covering some MLB teams this season, so had to research. Apparently Bally -- the casino operation -- bought out Fox Regional Sports network(s)? None of them appear on any cable system I can find where I live, while I have in the past found Zips football and basketball coaches shows on Fox regional stations during prime time in Hawai'i -- middle-of-the-morning on the continent. FWIW...

Michigan State - first regular season road game
Z.I.P. replied to TennZip's topic in Akron Zips NCAA Championship Soccer
This game was further evidence of why soccer/football is the world's greatest game! The team on the bottom can so quickly get off it's back and put its opponent upside down! At the 72' mark, shots were nine for MSU and two for Akron. The final, as TennZip shows us was 11 to 10. That resiliency hopefully is the sign of greatness. We shall see. Go Zips! -
Hey Zips football board, what's the story with Denzel Jones?? R.I.P.

2021-2022 Akron Zips Basketball- Looking Forward
Z.I.P. replied to clarkwgriswold's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Thanks for this ZZZips. It's the same venue, just a mile or two from McCarren Airport where the men played about 2015. No need to rent a car if you're just going to the games. I'm thinking of going. -
From what I've discovered apparently the 800 meter finals goes around 8 a.m. EST on Wed. But only broadcast live on Peacock. NBC will replay sometime later, like primetime EST. So, I don't need to stay up till 2 o'clock on the morning to see it...(Hawaiian time!)

No one's mentioned Colin Biros gone to 'Cuse. THAT is a big loss for our side and pick-up for the ACC. Will miss the Jackson grad.

No mention on this board... Can Holley play in the MAC? https://twitter.com/EricHolleyIII1/status/1395126573683126279?s=09

Keeping up with the Three D's (Dambrot, Dru & Duquesne)
Z.I.P. replied to dirtyolcrowe's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Newest upgrade to come to "The Coop" and Duquie Land: KD becomes first coach to hire The Personal Brand Coach. Gonna make kids rich by exploiting social media. Name, image and likeness profiting. With this the NCAA has thrown in the towel on trying to control boosters and will now introduce a bigger, better brand of exploitation. https://theundefeated.com/features/duquesne-empowers-athletes-by-hiring-personal-brand-coach/ -
Thanks, somehow I missed that! She played at Gilmour Academy with Naz Hilmon, B1G POY at Michigan. https://gozips.com/news/2021/2/5/akron-womens-basketball-announces-signing-of-corcoran.aspx

Zakia Rasheed, the 5-8 guard from Avon, IN (Indy) appears to be the star of the class. She's got LONG range shooting ability, has quicks, a defensive ball-hawk. 4.0 student.
