  1. It's always nice to win... but the fact remains the season was a disaster... winning vs Colgate and Kent State almost dont even count... and winning your last game of the yr is too late.
  2. I may have missed this -- so sorry if I did, but will Akron offer 105 FB scholarships next yr... and will every team in the MAC?... even so, there are many more scholarship opportunities available on the open market before a player would settle on a MAC offer, or in particular Akron... I can't see FB being sustainable at the FBS level for Akron
  3. This is just a train wreck of a program, year after year. I gave up caring a few years ago. It truly is hard to be this bad every year
  4. I was not at the game---can someone give an honest opinion of the number of fans that were there
  5. It makes me think of EA Sports for some reason.... and the A in Army.
  6. If this was done for free---then the University got their $ worth
  7. This is a good deal for the University, but I don't think it necessarily means Groce is a lifer. It gives him a nice level of protection longterm, but I would expect him to entertain a big offer should one come his way-- a win win for him and the Zips
  8. If Gary Williams bolted for Maryland sooner in 1989, I think Huggins would have landed the OSU job.... Randy Ayers backed into that when everyone got cool on the Buckeye job
  9. I think it was a good hire.. and that the Athletic Dept acted responsibly. Two things I didn't think were possible... so things are looking up. I think spending more would have been foolish given the Athletic Department's financial situation---It's not fantasy football, it is a business.
  10. $500,000.... seems about right, for a team and an Athletic Dept that bleeds money. Glad they didn't lose their minds and spend even more money that they don't have. I wish him the very best.
  11. For this to be a success I want 4 years of 5 wins or more out of your first 5 seasons --including 2 winning seasons. If he is good -- and with the advent of the transfer portal, these should be the minimum expectations for a coach (at any school)
  12. While Akron fans look forward to an announcement ....... IMO-The exodus of coaches as the season ends (almost) has become a problem. The NCAA needs to put a dead period in place for recruiting (players)from say Thanksgiving until the first week of January. Then the need to leave/ start at a new school asap diminishes
  13. Akron can't afford to be in this game.. regardless of any donations to cover his salary, and Arth's buyout.
  14. What the hell does making a "push" for someone entail?... John Lovitz made a "push" for Morgan Fairchild iirc
  15. Progress would be me wanting to go to a game
  16. Akron has no business sponsoring FBS football… time to leave the MAC
  17. Tom Manning makes $925,000 at Iowa State .... he does not want to look at Akron
  18. He makes $618,000 at OSU... very little chance of getting canned, and will probably be bumped to a $ million within 3 yrs
  19. If I was a legit, hot/ up and coming coaching prospect, Akron is the last place I would go. If you are any good, there will be better opportunities....imo only a guy who who doubts his abilities would be willing to take the short term cash (and not that much) that comes with this position. Unfortunately I do not have a lot of faith that things get better here (obviously).
  20. Does Matt Brock leave MSU for $60,000 more than he is making...
  21. Do we know his salary? -- Guthrie was at $160 + bonus at Green Bay... Williams I think was round $285 + perks/ bonus
  22. If Akron sports just didn't come back next year I think Zipsnation posters are the only ones who would notice.
