Wolfley out along with Kato. I guess that means Burkhart is back at least.

Robbie Kelley getting his first start at QB today.

Any players in the portal are no longer on the team, so you wont' be seeing them any more unless they decide to remove themselves from the portal and the staff accepts them back. The new regime has been pretty diligent about updating the roster online. You won't see anyone in the portal now listed on the roster except for Williams because he just entered. His name will be removed within a day or two.

https://247sports.com/college/akron/Season/2020-Football/TransferPortal/ I don't like when you make these posts, because there's always merit to them. Andre Williams in portal.

Absolutely. It might be our only win this year. I unfortunately might have to watch on replay. Totally will be worth my $12 or whatever it costs to stream.

I think we are at 74 right now, but could be off by one. Were at 78. White, Jacobs, Swanson, and I believe Lavelle makes it 74. Lavelle was here in the summer/fall camp as far as I know, but is now at Garden City CC. He definitely was on the roster at some point. I believe he would have been counted in the 78 when that comment was originally made, but I'm unsure. Don't know who else on the attached would be on scholly, as the staff has publicized walk ons getting schollys. Maybe we gave Brandon Lee one. If not, I'd have to imagine he will be on it next year. The other candidate is Romenick, but it doesn't seem common to give shollys to back up ST players. When I did the math, we could afford to lose two players to transfer and be able to get back up to the max next season. As it stands today, we are going to be at least 1 or 2 under again. I agree with you..we can't afford to lose players, at least for a couple years. Would be nice if we could get to the point where the tables are turned and we recommend players go elsewhere for better opportunities to play. Zips Football Scholarship Chart.xlsx

Do you feel better now?

Peter Hayes-Patrick also liked this tweet. If he's gone, I might just cry.

Trey Coleman started his career at Tennessee. With the early departures of Suggs, White, and Alce and the departure of Sands after this year, I think he would be a very welcomed addition.

Game 4: Troy Trojans @ Akron – 3 pm (ESPN+)
LZIp replied to Captain Kangaroo's topic in Akron Zips Football
Agreed. Dealing with this season will be tough for everyone involved (players, coaches, fans) , but I think if he "keep the team" without much more attrition and bring in another decent class, the lumps we are taking this year should set us up well for the future. Easier said than done though, I think. -

Looks like he is trying to get back to TX. I thought I saw Scarby at a CBA recruiting event the other night...guess I did.

Can't speak for the CMU game, but he wasn't dressed (along with White) during the UAB game. -

This season is depressing. I need some good news, whether it be on the field or recruiting front soon. -

Week 4 presser. He gets a little fired up at the 16:10 mark when GT questions the O-line. -
2019-2020 Akron Zips Basketball- Looking Forward
LZIp replied to clarkwgriswold's topic in Akron Zips Basketball
Nice post Z.I.P. Your last sentence is a good point. I see it as work in practice against better competition and pay your way through school for the year or get in practice/games/school covered for a year. I don't take much issue with either choice. The impatience is college basketball is intriguing to me. Giving up on a player after their redshirt freshman year is baffling to me. Even giving up on players after their true freshman year (like Groce has done) is baffling to me. Not everyone is going to come in and light the world on fire..some take time to develop and they have up to 5 years of eligibility. I'm glad our program didn't give up on Big Dog that early... -

Darn. Looks like I'm off base. Still should be a nice add next year. -

Looks like we are adding a much needed big guy just in time for the season?! Looks like a stretch 4 with 3 years of immediate eligibility. http://verbalcommits.com/players/taylor-currie -

Interesting. Literally one poster has said they are done with Nelson. No mention of the Oline woes and putrid running game. -

Euro Gyro, The Score, and Manny's are bar/grills right across the street from the stadium. The tailgating scene isn't anything to write home about, but we have some die hards. Tailgating lots are literally right next to the stadium as well. -
Game 3: Akron @ Central Michigan – 3 pm (ESPN+)
LZIp replied to 94zipgrad's topic in Akron Zips Football
Scary part about the OL is that the issues might not even be fixed after this year. We lose our best OL. I wouldn't expect anything outside of marginal improvement outside of any of the other current starters. With the current roster - we have one R-Fr that might be a contributor in the future and the rest are true freshman. Expecting a few of them to come in and perform at least average next season is a gamble. Staff would probably be well served to bring in 1-2 grad transfer/JUCO OL for next season to bridge the gap/bring in competition for the current starters. In fact, looking at it in hindsight, they probably should have allocated 1-2 of those scholly's for the transfers on D they brought to the OL. -

Didn't get a chance to watch this one live. After seeing the result, I don't think i'm going to start my ESPN+ membership for this season yet and watch the replay. Really thought we would have gave them a better game. UMASS, Kent, and BG are our only chances left at Ws. -
As opposed to what, Balsy's in-depth arbitrary rankings because you follow so close? Which recruit are you most excited for so far in the 2020 class? Or are you just blindly arguing? You aren't making any points to support you argument other than "TERRY BOWDEN" bud.
