Blue & Gold

Just reminiscing over how I'd been looking forward to this year's out-of-conference schedule for a couple of years. I thought it was set up perfectly for a mid-major's success. UAB Troy UMass Winnable payday game at Illinois. *sigh*

I really like Wolfley when he's healthy. But I've got nothing to add. We didn't seem to target the TE very often. Idk why as those are usually pretty easy, quick-hitting passes... which I thought our offense needed more of.

I don't think these stats include last night's game.

Great shots again, Good Doctor! Thank you!! 1. Josh Ward is an amazing human being who makes me proud he's got AKRON written on his chest. I'm going to miss him. 2. Great shot on the 40-yard obvious pass interference no-call on the first (?) play of the game. 3. I hope that's the last we see of that stupid Turnover Pencil. I hate that thing. And it's dangerous. Good grief, I'm beginning to sound like @clarkwgriswold. Get off my lawn!!!

Well. I can say I was here to support the team. I’m a diehard. But I think I’m out & just gonna catch the 2nd half at home. Now I’m just hoping Gibson doesn’t get hurt.

Our OL is amazingly bad. We should have tried Boogie @ RB this year. It was rather apparent after the first 2 games that Brandon Lee wasn’t gonna cut it.

OU’s blitzing the freshman Gibson every down. I would too.

Jonah needs more consistency. But when he gets ahold of a punt it’s a rocket!

Boogie’s been a bit quick calling for fair catches on kickoffs tonight. IMO.

He should. Yes.

I really like Watts. But other than Watts we may have an entirely new defensive backfield next season.

Looks like Kato just suffered a stinger. We may see Gibson the rest of the night. And... Gibson gets promptly smashed on a blitz.

Rourke’s putting the ball on the $$ tonight.

With 5 DB verbal commits, I wonder if the staff is contemplating moving Jalen Hooks to WR next season? He was an excellent WR at Warren Harding and I was a little surprised when I saw him listed as a DB once he got to UA.

ABJ: Two prominent Zips get one last chance for win John Lako & Alvin Davis. Weather is supposed to be pretty nice for this time of the year. I'm going to be there. Go Akron!

Tonight is one of the very few times I'll agree with that! Lol

We did just get that commitment from JaQuan ??

We may have just gotten a verbal from 6-3, 265 DE/DT JaQuan Green of Fort Scott CC.

So far (11/25) you can tell by our recruiting priorities where our staff feels we have the greatest need. Like we've all noted, it's on the OL, DL & defensive backfield. We currently have 4 OL verbals, 2 DT verbals and 4 DB verbals. We're still waiting on a RB (or two).
