This. Furthermore, this rush of commits is happening right after camp season, meaning these guys are traveling around and after they get to Akron, they're sold on us. Not Toledo (Smith attended their 7on7), not P5 schools - Akron is where they want to be. AND these are OHIO kids. Amazing what JoeMo & staff are building.

... And stadium...? LeafFilter Press Box at Kaulig Companies Stadium? Nice ring to it... Just saying...

@catdaddyp Did JoeMo have his camp? Do you think that could be the catalyst for the number of 2024 commits in the last week?

"I don't know who the hell thought peppermint blue with a dash of sea green would look good on the press box. It looks like the French sent us a copper press box and we let it corrode for decades." That's my hope at the very least - repaint the press box.

Holy crap. These are legitimate high school recruits. Beating out multiple P5s for each guy, plus many MAC schools - that's a sign that the tides are truly turning for this program under JoeMo. Edit: When's the last time we either 1) beat out multiple P5s & MAC schools for recruits or 2) secured top talent in NEO? Let alone both?

@catdaddyp What do we know about these guy's recruiting profiles so far? I know you said Keyveon is switching positions, which might change his recruiting landscape, but I can't find squat on him or Hunter regardless. Edit: Looks like Twitter had Hunter receiving offers from WKU & Arkansas State (Butch Jones). Solid list.

Not sure how JMU can be a favorite when he didn't include their mascot in the graphic, unless I'm blind and missing something. Looks like ODU, App State, Akron, and GASO for the mascots represented...

Can't imagine why X got signed but not Carry. Carry is an exemplary young man, reflecting only the best characteristics a human can have. He's humble with a great attitude. Can't believe he didn't get signed.

Reading ZipsNation before breakfast is not advised. (Insert old school tomato hitting smiley face emoji)

They could've at least gotten someone without a criminal background and a net positive contribution on the court/in society.

What the hell is going on with our scholly situation/roster?

Love the mid-conference-season-break up. Interested to see where we go.

The bracket for Cancun was just posted on Twitter. Akron/FIU face Utah State/Marshall. Best possible scenario IMO.

So instead of risking lives to play P5 opponents, we're playing Mid Majors. Somebody call the Cartel and tell them to spare us with empathy for this downgrade. Their terrorizing of Cancun is very new and should in no way have been known to Vandy & Oregon State prior to agreeing to play in the tourney originally. Also, did they leave that graphic in the Cancun sun? The fade looks awful. Jokes aside, that is a very solid mid major field. Are there 2 games against the Sun Belt this year? If so, I wonder where our destination will be. We got the cream of the crop for the game at the JAR. USM beat Vandy at Vandy and Liberty at Liberty last year. We just need to avoid any Brett Favre slander.

How many Arth guys are left?

So nice of the Atlanta Hawks to invite Sincere to their dance team tryouts while the rest play basketball.

Any coach that takes this job is going to need some sort of guarantee that this year doesn't count. An interim coach this year makes 1000% more sense than a permanent hire.

Huggy Bear has resigned. Great coaching career. Horrible ending. That diversity equity, inclusion training broke him. DEI > DUI > Resignation

JoeMo is a household name in the coaching and diehard college football fan circles - not so much the casual/surface level college football fan. Once there's more exposure to him, his brain, his staff, and his connections (the dude gets people to The League) - look out.

Do we know when the application for the 7th year was submitted? If he submitted it before spring ball and it took this long to review, only for them to deny it, that's Bush League crap from the NCAA.

Why did it seem like there was no question he'd be back?

Offers from Boston College & UMASS. Good get, especially since he has the @catdaddyp stamp of approval.

The Big Ten is the MAC's *****. Akron may continue the streak.

Welcome to the Big Leagues. This feels right.

So this settles it. 12-0. See y'all in the Playoff.
