Field Level Media: Oregon offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead is expected to be named head coach at Akron, Yahoo Sports reported. Is this accurate, or a misinterpretation of Yahoo's report, naming Moorhead as the top candidate?

I think @LoyalZIP is spot on with "Akron wouldn't do this if it couldn't," as we're tied to multiple P5 coordinators (OSUcks OC, Moorhead, etc.). Clearly there's a goal to make a home run hire. I'd imagine Guthrie, not having football at UWGB, wants to make a splash and his mark in the #1 college sport. Talk about a resume builder. Moorhead returned to Fordham (where he played). He's a WESTERN PA guy (Temple vacancy doesn't scare me; this is also why a failing program should get a head start in its HC search), and has history with Akron. This is not a pipe dream, evident by the volume of reports he's at least our top target, with other reports saying a deal could be done today. This is fun, regardless.

This is the type of turnaround I expect at Akron from our next HC, whomever that may be. .500 or better in year 1, then 3 additional years of excellence. Leave for a P5 school and get that next massive paycheck. I will be thrilled.

Gotta spend money to make money. Commit or get out of the game. Edit: Let me elaborate with spending money on the right guy. Moorhead has an undeniably successful track record, and based on the headlines, this would really turn heads in college football. Bowden turned heads slightly, and the program took a step in the right direction. Ianello and Arth did not. Go all in on THE guy.

Unverified account, but nice to see Joe's name taken off a VT vacancy list...

This. This. THIS. Hit the nail on the head. Can we rename the Info - Kaulig Companies Stadium? Or Leaf Filter Stadium?

The Browns suck, the Indians/Guardians are MIA in free agency, the NBA is tough to watch, and Akron athletics has been disappointing as of late. We need this type of news. Come on Guthrie! Hit the dinger!

We're technically 1-3 against similar competition.

That's the spirit. Akron Athletics said, "Hold my beer. What's this winning you want us to do?"

He's my #2 behind Getsy.

Sympathy failure. Had to come down to the marketing department's level to match what they're capable of marketing.

Silver lining to the crappy basketball these past 2 days... I find solace in knowing Suckeye fans are even more embarrassed by their near loss to us.

At what point do we see one of the freshman guards start playing for the potential scoring boost?

So exactly what did Our Lady of the Elms and the UpWard Basketball League Champion do for this team in between OSUcks and Fordham?

The only thing more annoying than the score is the A10 fan-girl announcing.

Is anyone else seeing a black screen for the Oakland/Vermont game? Edit: Finally started working. Carry on.

Toledo pulls away late, tops a previously undefeated Charlotte team 98-86. Charlotte's 3 wins come against Monmouth, USC Upstate, and App State. They also beat Georgia in a preseason exhibition, 76-65.

Which body language - his posture/demeanor or the word RICE on his jersey?

Not all heroes wear capes. Thank you, sir. 😂

That's still free for Akron athletics? I used to use TuneIn, but they've gone subscription based.

Is there a way to listen to games on 640 WHLO without paying for a subscription? I'm in Geauga County and out of range of a clear radio signal.

Would he want to do that again?

I'm simply excited to see this team play DI competition again. Quisenberry is a solid player. The same defensive effort we saw against OSUcks should help contain him, however. I'm interested to see how the offensive game plan in this game compares to the OSUcks game as well. Do we look to consistently pound the paint again, or will be it be Jesus Take the Wheel from behind the arc?

A thread that bashes China AND LeBum? Let me add KENT STATE SUCKS for the trifecta and perfect thread (minus the reason for the thread being the embarrassing butt-whooping). This new coaching search is the most important one in program history. The ever-changing college football landscape has us teetering on the edge of total irrelevancy, with our only current relevance being a weekly participant in ESPN's Bottom Ten (thanks to our FBS level; total irrelevancy is dropping to FCS). In no legitimate world should KSUcks ever beat us this badly.
