    Ha. Just saw this. Surprised I made the cut.
  2. My argument is that there isn't much value in being named "winner" of the tournament. The value is in playing and having a chance to beat big name opponents. I'm confident that nobody on this board knows the winner of this last season without looking it up, because all it is is another early season tourney. Come tourney selection time, nobody is going to care that Villanova won the Preseason NIT, but they would care if we had a win over Nova. I'm pretty sure we have never beaten a top 25 team, so us winning anything would be a complete long shot. Even if we don't win any it would be great experience to prepare us for the tourney if we make it.
  3. About a tournament that means nothing?
  4. Heard on 94.9 this morning that the Summit County Storm (a non-profit football league?) plans to use the bowl. They must not have seen the recent pictures. http://summitcountystorm.org/
  5. Nice pics.
  6. If the situation is still an ongoing issue then this just looks bad.
  7. Great news, love the names mentioned so far
  8. Its not just in college. Everyone knows Jim Brown is a piece of shit. A lot of people don't like him.
  9. I do not see any way he would be eligible this season unless he graduated. If someone knows something I don't please enlighten me. I know what the OK St guy said, but articles are saying he will have to sit out. edit: after some searching it looks like he went to Garden City Juco after being kicked off of OSU. So you'd assume he would be eligible, but the article I read was dated in December. Not a whole year...
  10. Disgusting for sure and embarrassing. However, he wouldn't be the 1st player Bowden has brought in with similar issues (see Chapman). He has been punished and all we can really do is hope he learned his lesson. I have to defer to TB's judgement due to the fact that all of his 2nd chance guys have stayed out of trouble.
  11. Spring game roster has been released http://www.gozips.com/sports/fball/2015-16/files/2015_Spring_Game_Rosters.pdf I don't see the DL from Buchtel. His name always slips my mind. I also don't see Lane??? Tyler Fitzpatrick is interesting to me. But really only because I happened to play against him in high school. He is a transfer from Edinboro. Great size, but I wouldn't expect much out of him. Walk on I'd guess.
  12. Not on the spring roster just released.
  13. Nice write up by EA. So much for no "overhauls" according to GT. Still say Woodson will be the back up over Pohl with the offensive change. Bummed about missing the game.
  14. I mean I'll agree with you if you can provide a reasonable explanation as to why presently students would pay nearly 4x as much to attend UA rather than a community college if their plans are just to transfer somewhere else. Doesn't make any sense to me and I haven't seen it from my experience. I'd say it depends on major, but UA has done very well for me.
  15. 1 of Bowden's proclaimed 5 or 6 transfers this summer. If you're an RB with an offer from Bama, you're most likely a great talent.
  16. As far as I remember, Martel wasn't even a starter for the Zips. However, if he gets drafted or even signed, then props to him. With Ike and Troy retiring, they need all the help they can get. As much as I hate Pitt, I feel if they shored up their CB positions, they would have been much better in previous years. I don't understand the neglect.
  17. I'm well aware of multi-accused rapist's record vs the Browns. I know Mike Pettine is .500 vs him and that's all that matters now.
  18. I think you're thinking a lot more students come to Akron just to transfer somewhere else than there really are. I mean if that's their sole purpose, why would they go to a state university and pay high tuition rates instead of a community college? I know more people who have transferred into Akron rather than the other way around. Seems *most* that leave Akron leave because they fail out and end up at a community college because they have nowhere else to go. I haven't seen many use it as a stepping stone. In fact, I only know one person who did that, but know many transfers that came from the likes of OSU, Toledo, LSU, and even international universities.
  19. I just found it ironic that you were making a joke about Browns fans being let down over and over again when we deal with the same thing as Akron football fans every season. I don't see anything pathetic about "trash talking" your biggest rival. Its what people do. The Browns lost at Pitt by 3 and then beat them at home by 21. I think they've proven they can take them down.
  20. Looks like it will happen eventually as long as the event doesn't die. I like it. Wonder if we will rotate with the Horizon teams or play Can't 3 times in the regular season some years?
  21. No. To put it lightly, Akron football fans don't have any room to talk.
  22. I think this is worth sharing http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2015/04/university_of_akron_slashes_co.html Not sure how I really feel about it. It seems like a great way to attract students, as for the type of students I'm not sure. The credit hours would be half the price of local community colleges. Seems like such a deep discount could devalue the degree.
  23. Weird seeing trolling of the Browns from an Akron football fan.
  24. I'm well aware that you blindly back KD on every decision he has ever made.
  25. I couldn't give a shit about B1G basketball or OSU basketball, nor did I mention anything at all about OSU in my previous post. Please keep going on with your weird infatuation with them though. "Getting exposed and destroyed by a bunch of Freshman". LOL. You mean the freshman who won the national title. 3 of which are going pro (most likely in the first round)?
