Would love to hear your explanation for the critical nature of football for other sports at D1 programs. Seems like a lot of ADs spend time creating obscure women's sports like rowing in order to comply with title 9 because they have football.

The next coach should come directly from a P5 school, have D1 head coaching experience, have served as a successful recruiter at some point in his career, have high expectations for his players, have some previous association with the University of Akron, and carry his game notes tucked in his pants – no wait.

Fixed it for you.

Ya know

Incredible!!! In ya know many ya know sentences ya know ya know separates every ya know other ya know word.

About equally sad, if he was 9-13 since arriving in Akron, he would have already received a contract extension.

I see the AL and the ron, but between them is a little guys face looking at Al.

I would a thought the same thing.

I'm not sure what you were peeing in after climbing 97 stairs; as I recall the official troughs were under the seating area on the press box side of the stadium.

Left to their own devices, following your advice, the UofA marketing folks would spare no expense and book entire rock bands, including: Slightly Stoopid, Rock Bottom, Limp Bizkit, Diarrhea Planet, and The Airborne Toxic Event.

I'm not grumpy, but admit that my want to the regress the program cannot be denied.

Couldn't agree more with your last point. Every time I saw that Fear the Roo logo w/ the numbers I was aroused.

This would NOT be cool. If this were to happen, it would be unsafe to walk outside because there would be no way to avoid getting hit by the crap from all the flying pigs.

That would be way cool.

Tradition.

Life is full of trade-offs.

So, what is the name of the lineman whose performance you found to be inadequate?

FIXED IT FOR YOU.

All of their newcomers have two legs; all of the Zip's newcomers have two legs. All of their newcomers are male; all of the Zip's newcomers are male. All of their newcomers have cell phones; all of the Zip's newcomers have cell phones. etc.

Who did Akron drop in order to add Tennessee to their schedule?

The similarities of the newcomers to Jackson State and the Zips is uncanny.

At this rate, in less than 13 years we will be #1.

Are you saying the attendees tended to be large people, or that there were lots of people in attendance? What were both the official paid attendance and butts-in-seats number for the Zip's s home games so far? I realize way too many teams (including the Zips) routinely achieve the 15,000 average attendance required to maintain D1status with smoke and mirrors, but I worry Akron doesn't have anyone with the magical skills needed to continue this charade much longer.

Yes, but that was against lowly Tulsa. Now you're talking the Zips coming to town. The scalpers are going to have a hay day as folks scramble to get their hands on tickets to watch the Battle of Ohio in person. Zips by 14.

Are you a Warlock or what?
