Joe Dunn just said we find out today if Okonkwo gets another year of eligibility, and sounded optimistic.

Unless Finley surprises us all and transfers, I doubt we'll be in the market for a QB via the Portal. Tahj, Roggow, and the incoming freshman are more than capable of holding down the QB room should anything happen to Finley during the season.

Maybe it's extra motivation for Duquesne. This is basically 10 cent beer night, and the players don't want to end up fighting the fans.

The MAC won't go anywhere with this beta male loser as commissioner.

Save the majority of roster spots for the physically mature 20+ year olds, sprinkle in some stud freshman, and it's hard to complain.

Kent State is using CFB 25 as their signing announcement strategy, and the players are all 99 OVR. Gonna be a brutal rude awakening when they actually get in the game next year and are 67s at best on the worst team in the game. 😂

You mean an unlimited NIL fund, no head coaching responsibilities, an incoming QB that is a JoeMo RPO wet dream, one of the top defensive units in CFB year in and year out (especially with Wink there now), and only a few hours further from where he is currently? The Michigan OC job is about as attractive as it gets.

This is why Stanford hired Andrew Luck as their GM. Most G5s can't afford a GM, which will only add to the cavernous division forming between the upper echelon of P4 and the rest.

He's from Hamilton, which is literally Northern Kentucky.

After getting his first win as a coach, Dry and his Fighting Dukes drop one to St. Peter's... Just a brutal, brutal start to Dru's HC career. I hope he can turn it around, sincerely.

CUSA All Freshman OL

Slept-walked through the final 10 minutes and still scored 86. We are an offensive unit this year.

CJN - Portal.

So Akron was probably mid to upper 70s. Always hammer the over. 😂 Okonkwo is really coming into his own offensively. We have some nice depth in the post. Not the biggest guys, but they're figuring out how to play hard which is the majority of the battle down low. MMK is really getting comfortable too.

Does anybody know what the O/U was for the game? Or even the Akron O/U?

I'm convinced if Arkansas State wasn't the first game of the year, we win that based on how we've played in every other game.

I'm assuming JoeMo is staying, and this kid is a stud.

Jayvin James - Portal.

Still alive and lives rent free in Ryan Day's head.

That's a BS excuse for Ryan Day's lack of action in the postgame. He literally was on camera asking someone what happened. Then he defended his team's actions in the press conference. Sark didn't have a problem controlling his team, and Sark's team won their rivalry game. Ryan Day is softer than Charmin Ultra Soft and his team resembles that. I don't doubt Ryan Day wants to get to the NFL, but I also can't imagine there is too much respectable NFL interest in a guy whose 2nd half game plan had 0 targets to Jeremiah Smith. Before he leaves CBus, he needs to pen an apology letter to Kyle McCord, too. I'm sure Lou Holtz would like a word with him, too.

Here's a little Zips-related nugget. As if losing 4 straight to Michigan (especially this year's squad) isn't bad enough, Ryan Day has also trailed in all of his games vs Akron.

Ryan Day absolutely deserves the blame. I'm all for the players shouldering a good chunk of the blame as well, but Ryan Day is 1-4 vs. Michigan with an entire senior class going pants-less (referring to the gold pants each player receives for beating Michigan). His game plan was potentially drawn up by a Kent State student, it was that dumb. $20M NIL budget for 10 points - that's a coaching problem. And then to stand around after the game, do nothing about your players, then have the cajones to ask someone "what happened" - inexcusable. He deserves to be fired immediately, and will be if they don't win a National Championship (although some OSUcks honks want him fired regardless).

Justice is served.

Another reminder that preseason polls are a joke and a poison.

After losing 80-45 to UC San Diego, Toledo lost to Oakland 85-52. Rumor has it Kowalchoke is trying some reverse jinx strategy - sucking in November instead of March. It's a bold strategy cotton; let's see if it pays off for him.
