Buffalo getting some home cookin calls now! That was a clean block by Riak!

There isn't.

A lot of recruits on campus yesterday. Still waiting for that first commit to kick off the 2020 class though, as far as I can tell. Am a fan of this new regime's activity on the recruiting trail.

Looks like we have found the replacement based on what I'm putting together on twitter. Former Toledo assistant and Iowa St WR coach Bryan Gasser. Looks like his contract wasn't renewed this offseason. ISU has had some pretty good WRs the past 2 years with Lazard and Hakeem Butler. Any input @Cykron ? http://www.iowastatedaily.com/sports/gridiron/campbell-announces-manning-hire-other-changes-gasser-gordon-scheelhaase-caponi/article_153ba628-1b5d-11e9-b304-f3ec048d8b46.html

While not "we", it was sold out for Lebron's homecoming and pretty dang packed for the Browns scrimmage with Money Manziel a few years ago.

That's the spirit!

#5 on the list is still a tough one for me to swallow. Just made no sense from the outside looking in.

very pumped we are getting Kent at home on a Saturday before MACtion starts before weather is shitty.

No need to be a prick to @Let'sGoZips94 I get what he's saying. It's hard to comprehend that somebody would just walk up to somebody and beat them unconscious for no reason whatsoever. That's a perfectly logical thought process and, in my opinion (maybe im misinterpreting), is not blaming K-Lac for anything. We see players "get into it" all the time. Like Cheese and Graves getting in each other's face at the Buffalo game. Nobody at fault, its part of the game. Of course it certainly doesn't warrant being beaten unconscious or any punched thrown at all. If truly "unprovoked", Gueye has some real issues. I feel bad for K-Lac regardless of the situation. Seems like a good kid who I still feel had potential. Writing off somebody after their freshman season, like many on this board did, isn't fair.

Well we play Detroit, CSU, and YSU pretty regularly.

Seems like Ball State has some really good, unbiased, commentators.

pretty bad late call on Ivey there.

Utomi bringing it today! Liked Poke's energy in the 1st half. Not pleased with Jackson's play on either end today. Nice to see Riak go for a dunk (even though he missed) and nice to see Banks get a few buckets. He's been COOOOLDD.

Looks like everything on 247 is updated, at least for us. Notes: Class ended up ranked 112th in the nation, 9th in the MAC, and an average star of .7924. There was never a higher year in the Bowden era either in the nation or average star. Bowden did finish higher in the MAC (8th) in 2014, but about 1/3 of those recruits never made it on the team, including the highest-ranked infamous Anthony Clark out of Buchtel. 247 adjusted Corey Thomas' and Peter Hayes-Patrick's rankings. Corey Thomas is now the highest rated recruit in the class. Thomas and Hayes Patrick are now rated the 6th and 7th highest rated recruits all time (as opposed to 6th and 8th).

Our WR Coach - Kevin Koger, took a quality control position with the Packers.

Hugh Freeze has basically already indicated his goal is to get back to the SEC ASAP. There is nothing "stupid" with this scheduling. A pay day game against a team at or below our level. The mighty Hugh Freeze and those top 20 facilities were only able to muster up the 134th ranked recruiting class this year.

Have you considered cutting the cord? I am paying more than before, but I also wasn't paying anything before (mooching off of another cable login), so it is tough to complain too much. I've finally gave in over basketball season, but the plan is to cancel as soon as its over and then re-up as needed come football season.

FYI - looks like we poached another coach from KSU - Jonathan Cooley.

Unknown at this point, but they paid Old Dominion 1.32M to play there last year. https://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/05/17/liberty-will-pay-old-dominion-1-32-million-for-2018-game/

My understanding is we will actually be going there, at least according to this. https://gozips.com/news/2019/2/14/football-akron-announces-first-game-of-2022-schedule.aspx

And they were crying about Graves/Cheese getting into it right before that. Def had an impact on the call and the call was definitely horrible.

Won't be easy, but it'll be fun and interesting. YSU seems to have dropped back down to being an average FCS team as Pelini finding some lightning in a bottle in year 1. I would think we should win, but if we lose, we deserve it. I also noticed our return trip to App State has vanished from the future OOC schedule.

Opening up the 2020 season v YSU. Can't tell you how much I love this. Should be a fun atmosphere. Let's just hope we don't embarrass ourselves lol. https://gozips.com/news/2019/2/13/akron-to-open-2020-football-season-with-youngstown-state.aspx

I sure hope not. I don't think we can afford to lose any big men.

Order will call no fees apply IIRC.
