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.

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.

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.

Where the hell did this nugget of knowledge come from?

Let's check in on our new friends from Massachusetts... How petty do you have to be to not give up the rivalry trophy? 😂

TOS to Columbus... Beautiful. Just beautiful. Plant that flag in that Block O!

I'm glad the MAC went division-less. We've been blessed as a fan base to be able to play our rivals in the MAC basketball title game. The same opportunity is now afforded to everyone in football. I'd say maybe we'll get an Akron/Kent MAC Championship in football someday, but Kent sucks, so...

6'5" RPO QB Bryce Underwood is a JoeMo wet dream.

Their best win is against 109 UNI, who also hasn't been impressive, yet nobody else has scored less than 50. Kent has only scored 70 twice this year, one of the times being 70 exactly. Credit to UC Irvine for helping Kent State reaching embarrassing levels of suck (more so than they already do by just existing), but Kent is not a good offensive team. It's beautiful to see.
