Yeah. Cuz the U has been sooooooo concerned about reactions to its decisions. Just look how quickly the whole polytechnic thing was abandoned once it was leaked and panned.

Perhaps this roster is not correct but it is the most current one and neither are on it. Just released today. http://www.gozips.com/sports/fball/2015-16/files/Training_Camp_Roster_081015.pdf

I thought Traylor Bennett was injured? He is not on the roster and Hakeem Lawrence is wearing #1. Is this new news or have I been asleep for a couple weeks? Also noticed that DeonTae Moore is not on the roster.

Poor kid can't catch a break. What a bummer.

GT also tweets that Jerome Lane is switching to WR. https://twitter.com/GeorgeThomasABJ

Guess that will make us all "zipsoutsiders" this year.

This spring, I voiced my concerns about Bowden's H.S. recruiting, but I gotta say. . . I don't know if there's anyone better than he is at bringing in transfers.

It's always ok to bring politics into a thread as long as you agree.

My intramural basketball team was pretty freakish but not in an athletic way.

Marcus is the player I am looking most forward to watching this fall. It will be interesting to see if he makes the list. I will be surprised if Pittman or Grice make it. How high will JB1 rank? Top 5?

Any bullet points about how a lot of this bad publicity could have been averted if we had some leadership with one effin' iota of media savvy?

I hope the guys with BREATHTAKING Athleticism have cool nicknames.

THANK GOD WE DIDN'T HIRE TRESSEL. P.R. TRAIN WRECK AVERTED. OH, WAIT. . .

The reports of Zipmeister's death may have been greatly exaggerated. He might just be sipping on a cool one with GP1 for all we know.

I'm not implying anything. If you want to trash last year's offensive line performance and/or coach, go ahead. I certainly see nothing in this snippet of Chisholm runs that suggests anything, though and I certainly saw nothing in the spring game that me feel warm and fuzzy about this season, either. What I did see in the picture (which I heard are worth a thousand words) is Jawon Chisholm putting the brakes on in the middle of a hole.

Just wondering if there were any performances that might rate with these. . . . . .among others at the JAR. . .

Forgive me for being so uninformed, but what were some of the killer performances at EJTH that are causing y'all to get so bent out of shape?

Chisholm runs 10 times. 2 are for no gain and 3 are for a loss. With all due respect, zipsoutsider: How does that give a glimpse of how badly the O-line performed last year?

I had no classes in EJT. Western Cult was held in Skank Hall South in my day.

Scarborough's next move will have to wait until he returns. http://www.cleveland.com/akron/index.ssf/2015/08/university_of_akron_president.html

Where the hamburgers and hot dogs?

This topic has been talked to death. If I had seeteezip's phone number I would send it to you so you guys could yak about it with each other 'til your hearts were content.

The head of the faculty senate advocating dropping football is a story. The head of the faculty senate making any recommendation that makes some kind of sense may be a story. Advocating dropping form FBS to FCS is a non-story because anyone with an IQ over 15 knows that the cost savings from doing that is negligible. It has been discussed ad-nauseam. The move from FBS to FCS would exacerbate the problem, but let's not start discussing this again. I'm actually sorry I even mentioned it. And also, before someone jumps me about the faculty having an IQ less than 15. . .I don't really mean that but Axl Rose put that phrase in my head years ago and it slips out from time to time.

They should sit on non-stories though and faculty advocating a drop to FCS was a non-story.
