nah. 2nd, 3rd at latest.

Bleacher report is a joke. I thought everybody knew that?

yep. I follow a few Akron accounts on twitter. Not sure what is the "official" one (even though I'm guessing its @FollowTheRoo). Whoever is in charge needs to get rid of the diffusion and focus on a single account.

Lyons is a heck of a player that could easily play at any major program. Wishful thinking about him coming to Akron, not going to happen.

Pretty sure I seen outdoors on twitter. edit: here ya go: Zippy ‏ @FollowTheRoo Reply Retweet Favorite · Open This afternoon's football Spring Game will be played outside at InfoCision Stadium. Kickoff is set for 3 pm.

He is missing the point.

In high school, we played strictly man defense. Man to man defense puts a lot of pressure on the secondary. I viewed the secondary as the weakest spot of the defense last season (defensive line could be debatable as well). I dont know if we have the athletes capable of playing man to man the majority of the time. Better hope we get a solid pass rush, I think the secondary will need the help.

Yeah, lets hate on Holmgren, it's not like he has taken multiple teams to the Super Bowl or anything

Weather is supposed to be the same in Columbus. I'm getting 50 and cloudy on my iPhone now for Saturday.

seen that as well, ugh. I plan on attending, with some friends as well. People are definitely more excited about Akron football. Hopefully the weather will change and be decent and we may have a decent crowd (for Akron anyways).

I think this game is worth it's own thread with the shot of rejuvenation the program has had during the off season. I'm looking very forward to this game. See what players are improved, and seem to be excelling in the new system. Curious to see QB play and Chuck Amato's defense! Any word on recruits that will be attending the game? Go Zips!

I believe when KD says the bracketbusters doesn't matter, it is when it is already determined that Akron will not be getting an at-large. This year, they MAY have had a chance when the bracketbuster game came around, but that is something we will never know. The bracketbuster game has a chance to matter every year (thats what its their for), Akron just usually isnt in the position where it is going to make a difference for them. I, too, wonder the change of heart KD suddenly has. I remember the interview where he said fans have unrealistic expectations due to mid major programs like Butler, VCU, and even OU this year. Seems he has drastically changed his tone in a short period of time. This is true. More revenue generated (a realistic amount) doesn't, and most likely will not mean profit for the UofA football program. I haven't looked at financial statements, so I am sort of curious how far in the red we are. However, more revenue generated, profit or not, means less money lost for the University that we are able to put somewhere else, such as a coaches salary.

This. That answer can mean a lot of things.

I've seen Diggs working out quite a few times the past couple of weeks. Zeke once or twice.

give me 4-5 wins for the Zips this year and no blowouts and I'll be happy.

Good points GP1. Points that I'm guessing a lot on here don't take into consideration. Seems a few are against Clayton Moore (I think he fits the system well). Regardless, I want the best QB out there. No reason to be against a guy who you have never seen play in the offense.

Whatever happened to that Commack guy from FSU coming here?

The offense Tim Tebow played in at Florida isnt the same offense that is being installed by TB. Tim Tebow was a serious running threat, which caused the defense to worry about the dual-threat that he posed, opening up the passing game.

50 minutes? No way. 30-35

Its an awesome and smart move from a business perspective. (as long as its not on the same day as OSU/Michigan)

This is college, not the NFL. Dual-threat QBs are very valuable at this level.

Sad to see him go. With the few run ins I've had with him, he seems like a pretty good person. I will confess though that I do not really see the point in transferring. It's his senior season, and its not like he really has a chance of going pro or anything. I'd like him to stay at UA, take what he can from the experience of being coached by TB, and get a good degree. Regardless, wish him the best.

woooooooo!

you think having schedule's of other conference teams and the "flagship" school of Ohio, while having nothing about UA at a facility the university uses is acceptable? And I said lack of pride. Which everybody on here has such a problem with. I never said those at the top are making bad moves in regards to hirings, keeping coaches.

LaTuchie is the home indoor. Springside is the home outdoor.
