  1. The Zips football team seems to be only program in college athletics that has any sort of academic standard held against them in the year of 2025.
  2. Last I checked, you have to be enrolled as a full time student in order to be play sports. What am I missing?? https://x.com/joel_haas1/status/1975926830029803852?s=46&t=9-fcK7Vn9q6OYAnLHpOI3A
  3. I don’t know, but I’m sure glad Groce brought back Ali Ali and Tavari Johnson.
  4. I’m purely speculating, but from the outside looking in, Joe Mo doesn’t seem to have the type of personality to attract donors (for NIL purposes) like Groce seems to have. I just don’t know how fit he is to be a HC in this age of CFB. I heard Summers was only able to come back as a walk on after entering the portal. I swore I read something on here or elsewhere where he said he wouldn’t take somebody back who entered the portal (which I get to an extent but you have to put stubbornness aside when the program doesn’t have $ to work with). Feel like that was in reference to Jordon Simmons. I think he’s also somewhat to blame (most goes to Arth) for the bowl ban mess, but understand it’s a delicate balance and tough position to be in. I think Joe is a good football mind, seems like a solid person, and is pretty much doing the best anyone else would be doing here in this era of college athletics. But if we want to be a respectable G5 program, he needs to adapt. Additionally, regardless of who the HC is, the University/Alumni/fan base need to step up their support. I don’t think any HC is going to produce a regular winner here without a respectable budget and NIL support.
  5. Football feels like an afterthought at Akron as well. No community or booster support (NIL), constant bashing of the program.
  6. If that were the case, it’s pretty hard not to extend the coach who would have the most wins since 2017 and elevated the program in back to back years, especially with all that the program has going against it (and fwiw I think Joe plays a part in that too).
  7. Well Chuck Guthrie did extend him after winning 2 games…
  8. That may be the best outcome for everyone lol. Tangible progress by increasing wins from last season, no legal bills trying to get the bowl ban overturned, and no wasted expenses for a likely bowl game blow out.
  9. It was probably posted on here before, but Joe said during his post game presser that we have to practice one less day than everyone else (and did so last year as well) due to this bs.
  10. Under the assumption we are favorites vs Kent and umASS (though there is no such thing as a penciled in win for us), can we get 2 out of the 4 vs Ball St, Buffalo, Miami, and BG to get to 6?
  11. I didn’t notice on the first one, but the second one definitely seemed like we were trying to game the system and draw a delay of game on CMU due to them having a late sub and us being entitled to sub. However, the ref let them snap (right or wrong I don’t know) before our guy got off the field. Our guy was definitely taking his time.
  12. It was a tough call but I don’t think egregious. Blunder by CMU counters us!
  13. Man if Gant was faster he’d have two TDs so far
