It makes sense for him to leave now, though. Most of the line graduated, which creates a natural transition period, and it also gives the new coach a fresh group of players to work with and implement his own coaching style and philosophy.
If he was going to leave, now would be the time that hurts the program least (although keeping him would obviously be best for Akron).Thankfully, we have playmakers that can stretch the field, which takes some pressure off the line for passing plays. Hopefully our RBs and FBs are up to the task.
