I find it amusing that on the morning after that loss the athletic department sends out an email announcing 50 days until the basketball season

Uncle.

In the words of the great philosopher Bernard P. Fife- NIP IT IN THE BUD. 😁

He obviously doesn't. To conclude this conversation on the level to which it has sunk- I am rubber, you are glue...

.....and now you've again proven my point. If your reading comprehension was a little better you'd understand that I agree with many of your points. Return to the childish name calling.

The Zips are in the FBS. "When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser." -- Socrates. Translation - when you start the name calling, your credibility immediately goes in the toilet.

Consistent? Yes. Great? One MAC championship in 50 years. Solid yes. Great? Nope.

UAB has given up 80 points in two weeks. Their talent shouldn't be substantially better than the Zips', so the result in this one will be telling. If it's a repeat of Wyoming, all hope (whatever little is remaining) is lost.

Happy Birthday Coach Groce.

He's not exactly adding positives to the old resume with any successes from Akron.

I did some editing for you.

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.

What talented QB would want to join this unending **** show?

6th...year...senior...quarterback...

So we put in the running quarterback and expect the defense not to be ready for the run.

Some semblance of an offense for about a minute then a timeout when everybody looked lost on 3rd down.

How we were not able to take advantage of that talent and awareness?

I thought Brophy played for Buchtel. Maybe he was from Kenmore.

That's well refined. I do that after about 30 seconds of exertion!

Walk-on tryouts are 8 AM to 9 AM on the 18th. I need to start working on my shot.

LOL. Brain fart. I was thinking Tom Osborne.

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?

Bud Wilkerson and Johnny Rodgers are not coming out of that tunnel.

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.

Concord is scanning the net for Serbian basketball video as we speak.
