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.

My sources say that: 1) Akron is bad at football; and 2) Nobody in a position of authority at Akron gives a $h!+.

He was at the men's soccer game last night!

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.

Kenni Burns and I both had Merrimack plus the points.

The long snapper and punter should lead the MAC in special teams plays this season.

Yes, could very well be.

Yes, fixed.

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.

Nihilism- the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless.

They may also find they have some allies in similarly situated programs in the conference.

If he's here, and I have heard it both ways, he competes with the forwards and wings for minutes. The Duquesne kid is the "viable backup big" who will share minutes with Amani.

I get it. He's underfunded. How about giving the school and the Akron sports fans some reason to provide you with more funding? Awful football and making zero effort to engage the community, while alienating donors, won't bring you more money. John Groce is 53 years old. Joe Morehead is 51. I see a hell of a lot more energy and efforts at engagement out of Groce. As a result, his program gets my money, not the losing program that acts like it couldn't care less about my fandom.

That would be one damn short line.

Free tickets will not improve the quality of the football and that's the real issue. Also, people will not go to see bad football, even for free. They've given away tickets before and it hasn't worked.

Listening to Joe's post-game presser. Ugh. SSDD.

In today's age of the "haves and have nots" and the continued misery brought on by this program, I think I've heard enough of the "we can't be in the MAC if we don't play FBS football" explanation. Maybe it's time to just blow this damn thing up and figure it out, with an emphasis on concentrating what we're good at (basketball; soccer).

We've all heard the phrase "statement win." This was a statement loss.

I'm thinking under 47.5 was a solid bet.

If this happens again, I will conclude: a) Our coaches are slow learners; b) Our coaches recruit slow learners; or c) All of the above.
