  1. I read an article today about a good rant Kirby Smart had at some SEC event yesterday. Apparently, some collectives are paying their high school recruits to remain committed to their school after they initially commit. Some are getting up to $20,000 a month. If they decommit, they have to repay the collective. Just another ugly wrinkle.
  2. Nate's going to have some transfer company at Kansas State as they just "signed" PJ Haggerty, a 6'3" guard from Memphis, the nation's third leading scorer last year. It will be his 4th school in 4 years.
  3. HGTV. The rime place to advertise football.
  4. GPA or under/over on wins?
  5. Sounds like she would have been a great high school JV football coach in the 1960s.
  6. Here's the Beacon article on the firing. Unfortunately it is paywalled. Some ugly allegations. I'll try to get a summary up later if I have time. https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/news/education/2025/05/21/akron-zips-womens-soccer-coach-fired-jen-simonetti-platts/83742740007/
  7. They can use the tables abandoned from the training tables.
  8. It would and could never happen but wouldn't be nice that if the kid didn't hold up his end of the bargain by attending class that he owed the school for a year's tuition?
  9. Here's today's fluff piece from the Beacon on Goodrich's introductory presser- https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/sports/college/zips/2025/05/12/andrew-goodrich-akron-athletic-director-press-conference/83561408007/
  10. Shammah also received his degree Saturday.
  11. Certainly one would hope that someone would expend the money and effort to challenge the NCAA and preserve the Zips ability to play in the GameAbove Bowl.
  12. Nate and Evan received their degrees yesterday.
  13. So, to clarify, we won't notice a difference in the attendance.
  14. We can criticize the NCAA, question the formula that results in the classification, gripe about NIL and question the dedication of the modern athlete to academics, but one inescapable fact remains and that is that the University of Akron football program is the only program in this position. Every other school is operating under the same constraints and standards yet UA is the only program in this position and that's damn embarrassing.
