Zipmeister

Zach, I may have missed something, but I didn't see what Reno was doing these days. How about some help? Did you read who was in charge of the web site?

Before we do that let's count up the number of fairly serious injury free seasons Rogers has had here.

At 6'7" and 300 pounds she would be a force on the OSU women's bball squad, and the prettiest one on the team.

And even if you're slinging the shinola gc, we can always use another bovine excrement distributor to give equin an occasional rest.

He/she sure has a pretty mouth.

If he was leaving bc he was too far away from home, he wouldn't go to UC, which would be further away from home than Michigan... He got started late and is low on the depth chart at UM. It has more to do with that than it does distance. I would love to see him at UA though. So, I hope I'm wrong. Buckzip, the guy who wrote this article needs to talk with you. He thinks the wolverines are thin at cornerback and that the kid was in contention for a starting spot. low on a thin chart

Nick Harney 6'7" combo-forward from Benedictine? If so that news broke months ago. He's greyshirting this year to work on academics and hopefully become eligible in 2011-12. If this is who you are refering to we still have one scholarship left to use on a PG. If you are refering to someone else I am honestly quite puzzled. We have a wealth of forwards on the team in the long term with Gilliam, Diggs, Egner, Green, Euton, Cvetinovic and Harney and are glarringly thin at PG. I suppose if we are talking about a stud like Jakarr Sampson (who is from the Cleveland area despite attending St.V's in Akron) or Anton Grady from Central Catholic it would make some sense, but we would probably need to pull a scholarship from someone else in order to make room for a PG then. that is not who I am referring to...new name...high level talent I am exceedingly confused by this then. If he truly is "high level talent" from "Cleveland" who "will be on campus this fall" I am truly stumped. It would almost have to be a transfer or a de-commit from another school. Nobody shows up on searches of rivals, scout or espn that isn't already committed. this is certainly a unique situation...unless you're from the Cleveland area, you might not recognize the name...but, be assured, he is a Big East/high major caliber of a player...academics were an issue and other schools backed off and Akron will pick themselves up a very nice little prospect if he keeps his head on straight I don't like being played, and I think that's what's happening here. This fella has Big East talent, but no one outside Cleveland is aware of it. Yeah, and you should see the real estate I got for sale in Kansas. Plenty of room to anchor your yacht behind the outhouse. I understand dock space in Kansas is fairly limited. Do you have a link that would allow a virtual tour of your property?

At last, an explanation for that pesky half game in both the win and loss column for last season..... "Sophomore Patrick Nicely started eight games behind center for the Zips in 2009, connecting on 120-of-222 passes for 1,349 yards with six touchdowns and six interceptions. The Akron offense, however, averaged less than 20 points per game as the Zips failed to win a road game and split three games at InfoCision Stadium. "

Is it this guy?

It's still early, but 193 votes out of 270 cast is a good start.

Where's equin?

Michigan cornerback, J.T. Turner, a Massillon native who had a chance to start this season, has asked for and was granted his release in order to transfer. Where is he headed?

Im allergic to country music. Thanks though With a moniker like "Cornbread", one would think C&W would be your cup of tea with opera and classical causing you allergic reactions.

I was there when some of those pictures were taken! I personally replaced that piece of crap diving board the young lovelies are on with a Duroflex board in 1968.

Come aGAIN? Bucknutz likes to beat the Bain thing into the ground. Bucknutz? I'm sure he meant that in the most friendly manner possible. Sounds like a term of endearment to me.

If he had just been attending Michigan State, there is a reasonable probability he would be on our roster in two years.

Come aGAIN? Judge's awards? !0, 10, 9, 8.5, 9.5, 10 Statement feigns failure to grasp significance of previous post, but presentation makes it clear message was received. Excellent work. So far the similarities are scary. Defensive player, coming from a bIG tEN program, full ride to sit out a year. Keep this kid away from health food stores.

Sounds like he may be a combo defensive lineman/kicker. It's up, it's good!

As per your instructions, I have reread the posts and am now getting back to you. So what you are saying, if I understand correctly, is that when you get caught changing your explanation over and over and can't seem to get your story straight no matter how hard you try and some one points out to you that you can't offer the same explanation twice in a row, you resort to calling people names. It would have been more polite to just make up another explanation. And what if poor Clay is reading this thread? By this time, he may be terribly confused about when he should report to practice. Ill take it from here... thanks No one wins when you argue on the internet *Read text does not have the benefit of delivery mechanisms like hand motions, facial expressions, etc *You are experiencing a large amount of cognitive dissonance that is not allowing you to read his comments and take them at their face value. Your anger and what every other emotions that are driving you to follow this thread are masking your brain's ability to understand. I'm gonna give ole Zipmeister one more shot at this cornbread. If he doesn't get it this time, I'm going to be awfully embarrassed to say that he has a degree from the same institution of higher learning that I do. Now follow along Zipmeister... 1. There is no NCAA rule on when teams must hold walk-on tryouts. There's no "National Tryout Day" like national signing day. It's completely up to the football staff. 2. Most teams hold tryouts after the season starts. They don't want to house and feed walk-ons who will have no chance to contribute during the season and are only needed for scout team. There's no scout team in camp. 3. Akron has usually held walk-on tryouts around the 1st week of school or shortly thereafter, as do most schools. Now, not one of those statements contradict each other. If you feel that they do, please don't ever take a logic class. You will be sorely disappointed with your grade. Now this explanation was much more clear than your previous attempts. The only thing missing was that you failed to specify the exact date of National Tryout Day as required by the NCAA. Speaking of logic classes; one of my favorite undergraduate classes was Sentential Calculus. Oh God. I hope that was sarcastic It most certainly was not. I really liked that class. However, I think we are beginning to stray from the original thread topic.

I would take Akron also. The Orangemen will be one of the worse teams in the country this year! No they won't. Syracuse will be a solid middle of the road BE team that probably gets back into a bowl game come December/January. Their new coach is doing good things up there, they had a solid recruiting class, have some JUCOs that are gonna help out, and have some talent returning. They'll be hurt Week 1 without Carter, but let's remember, we were one of the worst teams in the country last year, and we're going into our first game with two completely new systems on both sides of the ball. There will be miscues and indecision, take it to the bank. If I were a betting man, I'd take Syracuse with this spread. I see Orange 14+... but I hope I'm wrong. If what you say is true, I like Akron's chances even more. I think TWO completely new systems on BOTH sides of the ball will be too difficult to implement effectively early in the season.

You're just a tad confused here Zach. Telling Akron to stick it is different than sticking by Akron.

Any word on Bain?

I just wish dreal had been a little more upbeat in the comment he left on the blog.
