  1. I hope not. This is the best thing to happen to Kent in a long long time. šŸ˜‰
  2. Isnā€™t NIL just a legal form of what a lot of programs were doing already? ā€œAllegedlyā€ of course. Now itā€™s out in the open, and the contributors can use it as advertisement. See also NASCAR.
  3. IMO When youā€™re up 16 and have them by the throat, donā€™t dive on the floor for the ball.
  4. That is an older picture of the JAR. šŸ„¶
  5. NIU to the Mountain West? Do they have an airline as a sponsor? Those 2700km five hour flights what for 100+ pax and all the equipment arenā€™t cheap.
  6. Iā€™ll cross my fingers the TP doesnā€™t strip the Zips of their best players.
  7. A few years ago I thought the transfer portal was going to be the end of really good mid-major programs. Yeah I took some crap over that but in all honesty I had no idea just how bad it was going to be or how far behind Akron is. We still canā€™t sell football in this region I call ā€œfootball heavenā€ where high school programs draw bigger crowds than some D1 colleges. Taking some (or all) MAC programs to FCS is an idea, but then we lose the pay day games. Thereā€™s no easy answersā€¦ My first college football game was at the Rubber Bowl against Austin Peay. That feels like 100 years agoā€¦
  8. No, I wish I did. IDK why itā€™s such a big secret,
  9. TBH during that brief period of time the football program was winning games and going bowling, they WERE the toast of the town. For a moment.
  10. I went to Akron as a non-traditional student, and it was the best move I made (other than marrying Mrs. Spin). When I walked into my first RN position my salary doubled over what I made in EMS.
  11. Nope, it wasnā€™t just you. That was pathetic. That was three hours of my life Iā€™ll never get back.
  12. Iā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦.got nothing
  13. Spool up the ā€œParma School of Broadcastingā€ commercial.
  14. The biggest thing Iā€™ve seen so far is this team couldnā€™t tackle one of us.
  15. I really liked the guy, he was very friendly. I bet he was a great fundraiser judging how he talked to people. An awesome big time high school coach/recruiter, a lot of us thought he could translate that to college football. He was a very nice man. Maybe too nice to be involved with big time college ball. Maybe thatā€™s been Akrons problem, hiring great guys who arenā€™t ultra seedy recruiters. Rest In Peace Coach
  16. On the bright side weā€™re half way through JoMoā€™s contract.
  17. Weā€™re use to seeing this kind of beat down during payday games. Not against .500 MAC teams.
