This is great news to hear about Nate, as none of us on this board knew he was even on the Zips' radar. That's insane that he was District Defensive POY and an All-State WR in the same year. I've never heard of a situation like that before! And, btw, do you have any information on the status of Freddie Simmons?

Personally, I would be shocked if Woodson wasn't viewed by all as the firmly entrenched incumbent. And he should be; he's earned that. But I do hope Woodson feels pushed. Competition is good for everyone (my belief in the free market system rears it's head). I'm very happy (relieved, actually) at the depth of talent at the QB position for the upcoming year, and beyond. Lack of depth at the QB position utterly derailed our season this past year.

Out of Conference Schedule Complete for 2017
Blue & Gold replied to 94zipgrad's topic in Akron Zips Football
Oh, my. I thought this was a brilliant bit of jokery poking fun at our basketball schedule. It's no joke. (I figured 94zipgrad was having some fun w/ photoshop.) Edit: Oh well, easy win. Just win (six), baby! -

Joe Akron, you son of a b*tch.

This is going to be our toughest in-conference road test yet.

I agree. Seems like there's no way we have this many schollie's to give out, actually. Some of them have to be PWO, I suppose.

Should be a very interesting, competitive camp!

Jeffrey Lubin visited Iowa State last weekend and seemed to really enjoy his visit. He visits with us this weekend. Signing Jeffrey would instantly get me over the insult of being spurred by DeAmonte King. Jeffrey's highlights (I know) look better than anything I ever saw out of DeAmonte. And I saw DeAmonte play, oh... I'd say at least five times. (I'm not sure how much/hard the Zips actually pursued DeAmonte - possibly because we're focussed on Jeffrey.) Go Zips! (Go Otis!)

I was listening to ZipsLive last week & KD was interviewed. He again mentioned the renovation of the JAR & said he'd, naturally, like to get that done asap. He also mentioned the "new arena." In his mind the renovation of the JAR & a brand new arena are two distinct projects. He's obviously viewing the renovation of the JAR as a stop gap.

And this.

This.

Maybe they were just out of the frame?

I'm impressed they sold out against UT. I do have to wonder if those numbers were inflated. Typically the only game Kant sells out is the game against us. I din't even know they were thinking of renovating the MAC Center. That'll be 2 renovations for the MAC center before we pull off one for the JAR. As they stand now, I'd rather watch a game in the JAR as opposed to the MAC Center. That's how gawd awful the MAC Center is presently.

Absolutely! I was just trying to say that I'll be relieved if we win both games this week alone.

We've got enough on our plate this week alone, playing @ WMU and then at home against UB.

Didn't know Ken was a Zips fan. That's a big deal. Dude is one of the brightest young business leaders in town. He's become a true Akronite! We've been saying for a couple years that UA needs to learn all they can from the RubberDucks.
