  1. POOP! There was no QB under the tree. Oh well. Russian Christmas is in 2 weeks.
  2. I am really perplexed that we didn't see Wasel at all this year. He could have retained his red shirt after apearing in 4 games. QB room: Bullack--He can run, but can we move the ball against 8 men on the line of scrimage? Wasel--Who knows? In coming freshman--good luck. Potential JUCO or portal addition--Maybe our best hope.
  3. If we don't see at least 2 portal additions, we are in trouble!
  4. In those '50's, football players played both ways except the QB and defensive sprcialist. They were also limited to 33 players on the travle squad. I can't rermember if there were any transfer rules.
  5. This should be head line news on the Beacon's sports page! Have any suckeyes been recognized like this recently? Does "Eager Beaver" belong to USBWA?
  6. Not to diminish any player past or present, but could there be a better representative for Akron BB? If 25 stays healthy for the season, he should appear in everyone's All American team!
  7. I wonder if adding Ali to the rotation will speed our game up. Competing for minutes will bring everyone's intensity up. Ali is not coming off an injury. He has been practicing all along, and will hit the ground hungry and running. Look out NK!
  8. Kentucky is not in the mix for a shot at the national championship. I would love to talk to a recriut (HS, JUCO, or transfer) about the chance to go up against the best. If that prospect shy's away from that oportunity, it might be time to move on. What is the difference between a 3-star and a 4-star? The 4 is committed to one of the big boys. We can give the 3 a chance to PLAY 4 years and show he was 4 star material.
  9. Too bad they didn't name themselves Utah Technical Institute.
  10. Is this the early signing day for BB?
  11. First 8 games, total 4th quarter scoring-28 that includes the last miniute scoop and score in Morgan state game. That says a lot. The staff and players had a lot more faith than I. Before this come back, I could envision anyone with talent, players and staff, entering the portal. Some of the comments in the post game presser convinced me that this group is commited to turn things around. Lingard, "I'll be back." Give him a miniute with our recriutes. Gathings: Trash talking is part of our culture. Let's just get him to tone it back a bit.
  12. JU came through in a way I didn't expect. MVP? He will need to share it with Lingard. I felt Lingard put the Zips on his shoulders several times and carried the team to victory.
  13. I still have a few Thirsty Dogs and Hopping Frogs left over from my annual trip to Akron to make the night go better.
  14. I have forgotten about Jankowski. He came in with great potential. He just might be the spark we need. I'm now looking for one of our 3 untested QB's to start.
  15. I'm looking forward to Steele puttting some whip cream on this game. He will cinnamon stick it to Cant. This kid performed at a high level in HS; that is why we recruited him. It will be best to find out now if we haVe our QB of the future.
  16. These guys have had 3 months of practice since spring. It's time to see what they can do. There won't be much pressure with mostly parents and girl friends in attendance.
  17. Clark, this season is a dumpster fire. Any additional hot air will only fan the flemes!
  18. That didn't work out too well when we tried TB. I know that a win over Cant is top priority, but l think our best chance is to give our young QB's a chance. They will have a few extra days to work with the No one's, and remember they have been leading our scout team against a D that is probably much better than Cants. If l see JU or TB start next Wednessday, I'll go straight to the hard stuff to ease my pain. Remember JU is rated 159 out of 160! I don't think TB has enough attemps to be rated.
  19. Pro Football Focus rates QB play. Out of 160 QB's with minimal action, Jeff Underperformer is listed 159; one better than Iowa's Deacon Hill. I say again; can either of the young QB's perform any worse? It truely is time to find out!!
  20. Our 2 young QB's have a couple of spring practices and have been running the scout team. It is not like they have no idea what's up. They will keep their red shirt if that was a concern. Can they perform any worse? It's time to find out!
  21. I'll help. U of Iowa had 2 .500 seasons from 1961 through 1980. Thay's 20 long years without a winning season.
  22. If we take away 4 rushing plays, we held Brown to way under 100 yards!
  23. Ouch! If you invite a recriut, you better be ready with your A-game.
  24. Kent? Ohio?
