  1. He's not exactly adding positives to the old resume with any successes from Akron.
  2. I did some editing for you.
  3. I had no expectations of this game. Only hope. Hope that they would show some improvement and not be embarrassed. Those hopes were dashed on the first drive. The Zips moved to midfield in large part on a 19 yard quick hitter (their longest play of the year to that point- UGH). On third down, players are running all over, everyone looks lost and yet another early timeout is called amidst the confusion and chaos. They then come out of the chaos with Johnson at QB, clearly screaming out to everyone between Akron and Lincoln that a QB run is forthcoming. Predictably, the QB run was unsuccessful and in comes the punt team. Hopes dashed early. At least I wasn't teased.
  4. So we put in the running quarterback and expect the defense not to be ready for the run.
  5. Some semblance of an offense for about a minute then a timeout when everybody looked lost on 3rd down.
  6. How we were not able to take advantage of that talent and awareness?
  7. I thought Brophy played for Buchtel. Maybe he was from Kenmore.
  8. That's well refined. I do that after about 30 seconds of exertion!
  9. Walk-on tryouts are 8 AM to 9 AM on the 18th. I need to start working on my shot.
  10. LOL. Brain fart. I was thinking Tom Osborne.
  11. Classic Zips. Do they not think a better connection with Akron football could have been facilitated by putting the kids in the Akron endzone and the kids interacting with Akron players?
  12. Bud Wilkerson and Johnny Rodgers are not coming out of that tunnel.
  13. In today's college athletics universe, you can't count on a kid for any time past the current season. If he's good, the scavengers will swoop in and try to steal him.
  14. Concord is scanning the net for Serbian basketball video as we speak.
  15. My sources say that: 1) Akron is bad at football; and 2) Nobody in a position of authority at Akron gives a $h!+.
  16. He was at the men's soccer game last night!
  17. Agreed, and that's where the MAC is getting it as wrong as the University of Akron. Emphasizing an overly expensive sport that in which they have no chance of success on a national level.
  18. Kenni Burns and I both had Merrimack plus the points.
  19. The long snapper and punter should lead the MAC in special teams plays this season.
  20. Yes, could very well be.
  21. I have to ask. What's so special about the MAC? I'm not advocating leaving the MAC and spending money to do it, but there's no reason to not to start exploring conferences and alliances with similarly situated and like minded schools.
  22. Nihilism- the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless.
