  1. I think you actually helped the graduation rate, Spin. From what I recall, it is/was based off of 6 years (unless there is a recent article talking about a 4yr graduation rate that I missed).
  2. Not saying it won't or even shouldn't happen, but I don't know of any incentive the NCAA has to try to make their game as similar as possible to the pro game, unless there is a trend where top prospects start to go overseas rather than to school, which is a risky move by them. Many prospects bust, some in college and even more once they get drafted. A free education is a good safety net. From my experience (obviously a small sample), it seems like the diehards I know prefer college over the NBA. As popular as the NBA is and as a diehard Cavs fan myself, I even think there are a lot of problems with it.
  3. The University is independently audited annually by Plante Moran.
  4. I didn't get that at all. Can you quote some?
  5. honestly..who?
  6. I pray we have no suspensions/off court drama for the first time in umpteen years.
  7. I caught that too. Everybody has to put in their two cents, but nobody has answers.
  8. The 400k out of the general fund is pretty f'ed up considering all the cuts right now.
  9. From the original plan, 10mil was expected to come from an increase in fees, and 10mil was expected to come from an increase in enrollment. The university cut back on the fees because they received additional funding from the state that they weren't expecting. I don't think they were "forced" to, but it was damage control nonetheless.
  10. Don't have a link (I was reading one of those old school paper copies), but there was a sizable article this morning in USA today hyping up Frohnapfel.
  11. already been stated that that won't be happening.
  12. Maybe im wrong, but being out for the season before the season even starts because of hand surgery doesn't seem right to me. If true, however, I wouldn't be shocked if we have seen the last of MTB in a Zips uni.
  13. Saying all or even most police are not heroes/are corrupt is as bad as saying all or even most African Americans are criminals.
  14. Thanks for sharing. Maybe it will quiet some questioning why there were no admin cuts
  15. Some facts http://www.uakron.edu/im/news/statement-about-the-future-of-the-ua-press-and-the-multicultural-center/
  16. Knowing Dan personally, that is the correct link. Partner at Bruner Cox
  17. This discussion is nothing new. You can bet your ass the offense will be different. Even if it was, I don't see a reason to be a jerk about it. There are people who are somewhat connected believe it or not.
  18. The Doc should like this Players Tribune story. Old, but being promoted by them on Twitter. http://www.theplayerstribune.com/deflategate/
  19. well for one (maybe it's just a formality), Tra'von isn't pencilled in as the starter. Two- we would need actual running back talent. Dr.Z may or may not know more than I do on the situation, but I'm a little skeptical of it. I'd picture more of an Auburn-type of spread as has been mentioned on here previously.
  20. id probably throw in Air Force as well. At least a variation of it if I recall correctly.
  21. Pitt for sure! For multiple reasons including me needing to beat Keener in the attendance bet ?
  22. Not that I'm happy to see it or anything, but the only time I ever stepped foot in EJ was for graduation.
  23. The name doesn't sound familiar to me. Was he mentioned on here prior to the thread?
  24. I don't have any sources on hand (on phone), but I was at a football HOF event a while ago and President David Baker said that the HOF gets 200 something thousand visitors every year. I recently read an article that EJ Thomas gets 300k visitors/year. Obviously EJ Thomas doesn't bring in near as much revenue as the HOF, but it's still interesting that EJ Thomas has more visitors.
  25. But didn't he hire his mom coming out of school (which realistically would have been his best shot).
