Ben was an unrated prospect at QB and only had 1 offer- from Miami obviously.

$5 is about the value of the free chick-fil-a sandwich voucher they give away every game. Not sure why they expect that to draw students...Giving away free shirts would be a better giveaway.

This might be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Almost as bad as the NFL wanting Katy Perry to pay them to perform at the Super Bowl.

Nice shot by Juice. Walters defended well. Great team effort overall and it was nice to see some guys seriously step up tonight. Walters even provided some quality minutes. However, I cannot support Deji sitting during the last few minutes in any way possible. I'm tired of losing to Toledo.

I get nervous every time Johnson touches the ball.

We make excuses for losing games against mediocre majors with things like "travel arrangements", but we have no problem flying our alumni soccer players in from all over the world to promote a game. Not that I think it wasn't a good idea, but its obvious priorities aren't in line if we are going to use excuses as silly as travel arrangements and the budget is as tight as it is. And people want to blame football, but are against cutting programs that do not or will not ever generate any revenue for the program. Football vs basketball on this board is played out and lazy thinking. OU has made tourney runs and they have a nice mid-major football program that they've invested in. Toledo certainly invests in their football program, and their team has been viewed as a serious mid-major the past few seasons (even though they have been a disappointment considering expectations).

Antino is playing amazing. Aaron has hit some big shots off the bench. I wouldn't mind Aaron getting some more of Kwan's minutes really. Its great to have Deji back..but shooting horrible from the 3 outside of the Jackson boys. Also missing way too many bunnies. Have a feeling the wheels fall off in the 2nd, but I hope I'm wrong!

You can tell its not a sellout, but I wouldn't say the crowd looks disappointing on TV.

Quick cash isn't the reasoning for the proposition. Being fiscally responsible is the reasoning behind the thoughts. Not only do the sports I mentioned not generate "quick cash", they generate zero cash at all and never will. I don't see anyway that it would be pushed to the high school level or lower because you aren't traveling clear across the country or paying coaches a comfortable salary to coach golf at a level that nobody cares enough to pay to watch.

They have shot better from inside the ark than from 3 all season. We lost to yet another team that we shouldn't. Probably because we shot so poor on what should be higher % shots. Maybe they should practice them more. You're better than using an anomaly to make a point.

Its a good thing we have all that depth.

i really don't have an opinion on TW one way or the other. I would say the Ianello hire is a fire-able offense itself, but its hilarious how he gets all the blame for that and no credit for anything else.
-
Something needs to give regarding the AK-Rowdies. They are downright pathetic. I think a change in leadership is needed. The same guys who are currently in charge were in charge when I was in school, and to be honest I wasn't much of a fan. Are they making a career out of being a student or what?

Two things: It's "Kincade". And Woodson was committed to Arizona, not ASU. -

highly unlikely. Lets be real, we all know it would have been a long shot to keep him. -

Sounds like a record to me. The record was broke multiple times a few seasons ago during our long winning streak, but I don't remember it being that high. If it isn't a record, its really close to it.

Great team win. Let's keep it up.

I was at the Buffalo/Akron game Saturday night. I noticed the Pres and TB (probably a few other big wigs I'm sure) were sitting front and near center. The AD on the other hand..at the top of the reserved seating. Probably doesn't mean anything but I thought it was odd he wasn't with everyone else.

I don't know where else to put it, but the QB Harrison kid for the class of 2016 has apparently reopened his recruitment. -
POLL: How satisfied are you with the 2015 FB Class?
LZIp replied to K92's topic in Akron Zips Football
what about the 7 teams we lost to? I bet all of them have had better recruiting the past 5 years. What about the programs with the top classes in the nation the past 5 years? I bet they had near top programs. -
+1. Would be shocked if there was even a preview to read.
-
+1 Best wing defender, best on the team in FG% outside of post players, 2nd leading scorer (with only 18 mins/game), best athlete on the team, and shoots the 3 at a respectable rate (better than one of our so called "specialists" who is starting ahead of him). Really a complete player. With all that said, 6th most minutes per game on our team. Name me another program whose best or 2nd best player on the team plays 18 minutes a game. KD must be smarter than every other coach in America. I guess as long as he's bringing energy off the bench, though. And for the record, I'm not necessarily against him coming off the bench, but the fact is he needs more minutes. For all those who want to bring up Q last season, he averaged 30 minutes a night. Looking forward to more losses against lesser opponents.
