My brother is a college head coach.
College coaches are hired to Lead, guide, empower, educate, unify, build, and WIN.
Akron is not a Power 5 School.
1st thing that comes to mind when Ohio State is mentioned is Football.
1st thing that comes to mind when Akron is mentioned is = EDUCATION and as a Akron Alum I am proud of that.
I be damn if folks on here throw my Alma Mater under the bus in defense of a negligent coach allowing his players to not give a damn about academics. There is no excuse for that.
Power 5 Schools can afford to pay coaches millions to leave on the strength of them not winning.
As a mid major our goal is not to compete for National Championships. Our goal is to bring in a HC who can build a consistent winning program on the field and in the classroom. A winning program that unifies the city of Akron, Students, and Alums. With all the $$$ that has been dumped on this program we should be on a consistent level with Buffalo, Miami (OH), and Ohio Univ.
