Bummer... iknew it would never happen but still the tease factor had me!

Dalton is essentially an unathletic Charlie Frye...and if Frye can make it 4/5 years in the NFL I don't see why DW13 can't make it was a #3 QB

Found this Friday: http://www.ohio.com/news/local/ua-marketin...r-bowl-1.400206 "Sean Mason, president of Team 1 Marketing, said the company will invest as much as $35 million to remake the bowl for what he hopes will be a U.S. Football League franchise." Ummm I think someone needs to let Mr. Mason know that the league has apparently gone belly-up! Oops!

Meanwhile, I drove by the Rubber Bowl last week and there was a full dumpster and a porta-potty near the old entrance gate!

I was looking for the USFL website and it has apparently gone dead. http://www.theusfl.net The USFL Twitter site hasnt posted anything since March 26. https://twitter.com/TheUSFL Shocking I'm about to say this but... looks like its dead before it could even start to rise.

Romo who and his 125 million dollar contract!

Lots of mistakes in there. What an embarrassment. I saw somewhere where Pohl is a redshirt freshman...wow that would be cool!

How about Dylan? How soon we forget! Better numbers in many cases than Getsy... Transfers who come in and play just a year often do not make much of a difference... lets hope we change that!

Chase is a great pro. He will do well in Carolina's defensive scheme.

Didn't all of Ali Karts shots rim out? Lol

Let us not forget the 3 game suspensions of Tree and Harney Games 1-3 that were handed down the morning of the Coastal Carolina Game! Yikes!

Frenchy's wife is named Marsha. So knowing that, the call made sense to me.

I am going to hope that he was quoting Mr. Belushi from Animal House!

Parker, it was a good read. I just have a hard time seeing their dream coming to life. The one thing that jumped out at me was the comment about suites. There currently aren't any and the article said they wanted to add to the existing. Where and how would they be built?

Well they obviously have money to waste...

There were contractors trucks spotted at the Rubber Bowl this afternoon. Maybe this will happen after-all? I still will believe it when i see it!

I don't know much about him, but he seemed like a good guy.

Let's not forget this weak UMass team will be stronger than what they were last year when the crushed us at home 22-14... it was a crushing defeat!

Spin you are killing me man! Here is a quote from the USFL website from Feb. 11, 2013 "The USFL and its development partner have identified and secured the first five of these markets and plan to begin construction on stadiums to seat up to 20,000 fans in time for the league’s inaugural season, which is scheduled to kick off in the spring of 2014. The markets include locations in Southern California, Texas, Louisiana and Alabama. Additionally, the USFL has made significant strides toward bringing a team to Ohio, and has been working closely with multiple other cities to ensure that it reaches its goal of securing teams in eight markets for its debut season." Nothing has been officially named in Ohio and or Portland. http://www.theusfl.net/press-02_11_13.php

Except they do NOT own a franchise yet. The league has not named Akron yet.

I've been sleeping on this... Who hires a head coach and GM before there is even a team? I think the more I hear about this venture the more doomed it becomes. I never saw it happening and I really don't see it now!

"They may also want to add more suites." More? Can someone tell me where the existing ones are so that they can add more?

Its the day after Thanksgiving...They almost always play those at 10-11-12 in the morning.

Michigan seats are more than OSU seats. I looked into it. 85 bucks Dont know if there will be a discount thru Akron ticket window...I doubt it

At least its a evenly distributed schedule this year. I could get used to coming down every other week... Lets see if the Browns can filter in on the Zips away weeks schedule...is that too much to ask?
