He was also featured on Netflix's Titletown for anyone who wants to get to know him more.

Pretty defeated to be honest. Can't force myself to go to another game this year. Completely unacceptable how we couldn't stop the QB who couldn't throw the ball. They ran the same 2 plays over and over and over and we couldn't stop it. We may be stuck with Arth, but I want Feeney gone. I noticed on third and short he seems to take big guys out and put smaller ones it. Doesn't make much sense to me. We have a few players, but by and large, the entire unit is quite likely the worst in the nation. I was watching gameday this morning and they were discussing Clemson's offense and how they're starting two freshman on the line as part of the excuse for offensive struggles. Trotting out 5 freshman OL (including a walk on in Robarge) to protect Irons might be borderline negligence. The shake up in the interior doesn't appear to be working. Can't believe we are down to a walk on freshman RB. Reminds me of year 1. Side note: when walking up to buy tickets, I saw Dollard and I believe McCall wearing "Free #7" and "Free #99" shirts. Surprised (and maybe somewhat hopeful for the future?) they appear to be on campus still, even though they're clearly clowns for the shirts. I was listening to the radio on the way home and they were talking about BG and mentioned how them bringing in 7 transfers on D is really helping them this year. The new NCAA rule will force Arth's hand whether he planned on it or not this year. In addition to the annual 25 counter, you can bring in an additional 7 from the transfer portal for each player of yours who entered the portal. So far we've lost Gavin Blunt and Bryce Peterson. Shouldn't be too hard to upgrade those schollies. Getting a lot older next year and the chance to bring in more P5 talent is the only thing that gives me a glimmer of hope for the future, as "Jimmy's and Joe's" is largely the issue in my eyes.

Irons is suited up….
-
We just can't catch a break.... I was pleasantly surprised by Bischoff and Corner in cleanup time vs OSU however.

My comment was directed at the statement that DJ liked it.

Irons being out would certainly be unexpected as there was nothing that indicated he was hurt and I had zero issues with our WRs during the OSU game. Really don't have an issue with the playcalling either.......Tough to do much when you are overmatched in terms of size and talent at every position. My issue is the defense in general. That unit is a sieve. If we have a slew out guys out, its no wonder OU is a favorite. We aren't that talented nor experienced, we can't afford to be missing many starters.
-
How much of Ant Williams, Oran Singleton, Jalen Hooks, Boateng, Fann, and maybe even Bubba do we have available? Of course thats a rhetorical question, but if we don't get healthier, its going to be tough. And I only bring Bubba up as Arth mentioned multiple LBs getting banged up, though I never noticed anytihing during the game. This definitely appears on paper to be one of our two best chances to win another game this year. OU has looked pretty dreadful thus far, as LoyalZip indicated. If Irons and the WRs can stay healthy/develop, I think they can give us a chance in some games.

there is nothing wrong with scheduling 1 or 2 pay day games a year..its the games vs the bluebloods I think most are complaining about.
-
2 drops that drive alone…
-
Corner and Bischoff would appear to be in for Bubba and Boateng. Hopefully Boateng’s injury wasn’t serious.
-
This is the first game it hasn’t been Beckman, for what it’s worth. I thought the biggest upgrade we could have made would be to maybe try out Chambers at LT and leave everything else alone.
-
This year is likely "long enough" if we only win 1 game. I'm not sure of my thoughts if they were to win something like 2. If I end up being satisfied based on reasonable expectations this year, my expectations next year are bowl eligible or bust, without a doubt. This would give Arth another year to address issues with players and staff, his original class would be in their 4th year in the program. There's been a lot of issues the staff has had to face - some self inflicted, and some out of their control. Taking the long approach and booting a lot of Bowden players/playing their recruits, COVID, way under the scholarship limit, losing the best player on offense, potentially defense (McCall), and the O-line coach unexpectedly this season. I haven’t seen much that makes me think “incompetent” from the coaching staff. Some of the weird head scratching stuff seems to be ref screw ups (based on the games I’ve been to).My biggest head scratcher is some of the personnel decisions, but they’re obviously around the team infinitely more than me.
-
I've noticed our entire interior OL is switched around tonight. They aren't looking good, though they are playing against a bunch of 4 and 5 stars. Robarge I believe isn't even on scholly. Our #2 RB, Hester, isn't either I don't believe.
-
I think we’ll score again. The OL is a weakness but our skill players are solid.
-
Amankwaa did have a nice play. Outside of that, I think it’s mostly been OSU beating themselves
-
He would be getting the same treatment as Arth if he went winless in his second year like Loeffler did. Not even sure he'd be here considering how impatient everyone is.
-
Congrats to BG on keeping the years with a MAC win over a B1G team streak alive. I only watched the end, but it appeared to be a sloppy game where the defense made some plays to give them chances. Calling it "so much faster" let alone "turned around" is a bit premature, however. We'll see how the rest of their season plays out.

2021-2022 Akron Zips Basketball- Looking Forward
LZIp replied to clarkwgriswold's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Don't forget about Clarke, clark. -
Vegas musnt't have watched them play either, considering they are 24 point home dogs to Troy. Or a Bowden would call them, "Troy State".
-
that lost to a crappy FBS team.....
-
I hope we stop hearing about our finance issue soon. We (the university as a whole) made all these cuts and my understanding is we're now supposed to be fine going forward...at least that's how it was spun based on my recollection.

Heard on the radio this morning a second victim is being taken off of life support and will not make it.
