Throwing the dog a bone. So to speak.

From my experience, not worse. I would almost say slightly better. I will also mention, I have high speed cable for my provider. It's a nice $35 media player solution with limited capabilities. Perfect for this one solution imo. For advanced tailgaters, I read if you have an unlimited data LTE plan on your phone, and a wireless travel router, the possibilities are there.

As long as you have an internet connection, you are able to watch games shown on the internet on a big tv with Chromecast. You will need Google Chromecast. Hook it up to a HDMI tv. You have to use the web browser google chrome on a computer to broadcast sites that are showing the game on the internet to it. You need to enable UPnP (Universal Plug n Play) on your router to make it work consistently. Follow the directions in the Chromcast box or you can go here. One of the best advantages is that you can put this on any tv and not worry about running wires to it. In the garage, in your workshop, in your gazebo, your only limited by the distance of your wifi signal and power. If one were savy enough, you could use this at a tailgate. Here is a better explanation on how this little device works. There are more advantages, but I'll just mention the one that pertains to ZN looking to broadcast games to their big screen. Reading this back, it's not a very good explanation, if someone else is doing the same, feel free to explain better.

The full Board of Trustees is serving as the presidential search committee. I would assume they all have @uakron.edu addresses. Richard's contact information here. Change.org is an online petition tool that might interest you.

Yes.

Thanks Keener. I'm hoping for the best, but I fear the "worst." I know how I would set my defense against the Zips at the end of last season.

OU's Saul Phillips has experience winning in the NCCA tournament. Seems like a good hire for the Mac. More here from ohiobobcats.

Johnny or Keener, did you happen to notice KP16's quick slant passes? I'm hoping he will develop consistancy with this route this season.

I would hope OU makes a good hire to increase the level of basketball in the Mac. The better hire OU makes, the better Mac basketball can be. Good for Akron in the long run. Bobcat fans write about the next hire.

Hopefully the new guy can convince one or both to stay. The MAC needs all the "major" recruits it can get.

Boston Globe reports he is hired. Going 49-42 in the MAC gets you a promotion to BU. There is a $500,000 buyout if he accepts another job before May 1.

Boston college eh? Wonder if he would be recruiting against KD again since Boston college supposedly offered Noah, and the Zips are considering him?

Post Gazette obituary. And another. Condolences to the family.

Uniforms mentioned on foxsports.com Flashy uniforms have become a trend in college football over the past few years and unfortunatley, we don't see it going anywhere any time soon. While some teams have decided to forego tact in their uniform redesigns (see: Oregon), we find this one pretty cool.

The Godfather of the draft, predicting the same as me?!?! Could be the next Browns QB!?!? User Actions FollowingGil Brandt‏@Gil_BrandtWenning is smartest QB in draft. Arm strength questions but not bad. Pretty good player. Think he'll surprise about where he lands in draft.

Now that New Belgium is distributing in the area, I tried two more that I liked. Spring Blonde, and Snapshot. Both purchased at my local Giant Eagle.

I saw this on Sports Illustrated today. This reminds me of a call Steve French took one time. A YSU fan (that harassed him every week) asked him what he thought of Jim Tressel coaching OSU. Frenchy stopped...gave a funny look...paused...looked into the camera and screamed "MY BIG TOE HAS A BETTER CHANCE OF COACHING AT OHIO STATE!!!" I talked to him about it years later, and told him it was one of my favorite tv moments in sports talk shows. He replied "I said that?" You don't want to know what I would pay for that tape. If someone worked at the CAT, please make it happen.

More of the same from the CantonRep.

That's what I want to hear. That's how I will judge the season.

Interested in Harvard and Stanford, must be an intelligent kid. One offer, from UC Davis?!?

There was a former Akron football coach that used to do this according to some.

One guys trash is another guys (Elton Alexander) treasure.

Great time to be in Vegas, the pools just opened back up.
