Yeah, that was my thought as well.

Anyone hear why the reception got cancelled for this coming weekend? Was looking forward to hearing from the coaches.

He's been at the football games. Spoke to him briefly, he was walking around Zips fest.

Yeah, who knows. The roster that you can click on from the main FB page still shows MTB and Moore, but not on the roster you show. They both have Bell and McNeil, though, so it's strange. Maybe one of the writers can get to the bottom of this...

They're on the roster. MTB is #10 now, Moore is #56

Totally agree with you, B&G, the 40 time is vastly overrated. I think the cone drill is much more relevant. Shows quickness and change-of-direction ability. Much more useful in game situations.

Did some digging around on twitter, so take this for what it's worth...Benny Cunningham, Arlington McClinton, and Curtis Black all still list themselves as students at Akron and Josh Smith says he will be there on Jan 8 (I assume that's the start of the spring semester). Reading some of Cunningham's tweets, it sounds like he is recovering from an injury, so maybe it was similar to the situation that D'Orazio went through. Hard to say how accurate twitter information is, but it would explain why the incoming recruiting class is expected to be so small.

On twitter, Jeremy Guy (@JGuyMAC), the director of communications for the MAC, said they are looking into the problem...

I can't get it to work, either. Very frustrating.

From reading various items on twitter, it seems as though McClinton is attending classes at Akron. Maybe the issue with him, as well as the others, is that they couldn't qualify this year? If that is indeed the case, hopefully, we will see some of them in the spring.

Hope. For the first time in a long time, there is reason to have hope for the future of the Zips program. We might not win a lot of games this year, but we are on the right track, finally.

And a few of those seniors are in their first season with the Zips. Excited to see a bunch of new faces, but that also means it may take longer for all those guys to gel together.

I think the TE you're talking about is Justin Favors. Also, I noticed A.Russell isn't on the roster. That seems like the only major subtraction. I actually expected more turnover, but maybe there will be some after spring practice.

I would be very interested, sounds like a great idea!

I believe the article said he would be coming here as a walk-on, so he wouldn't be listed today with the other recruits.
