Nemer says plan is in place to handle the situation- https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/sports/college/zips/2025/05/08/akron-zips-president-rj-nemer-football-academic-scores-apr-ineligible-for-bowl-game-2025/83517983007/

Very young, very sheltered spoiled adults who have had smoke blown up their asses since they played pee-wee football.

Bowden had a great resume. Arth had a decent resume. Moorhead had a great resume. Yet, we're still here. At some point you have to wonder if the problem isn't the guys UA is hiring.

I'm sure there will be a long line of quality candidates if and when the job becomes available given the program's recent success and the past and coming cuts. Oh well, at least Joe pays his bills and doesn't use his school credit card for Chuck E Cheese visits.

At this juncture they may need a magician rather than a head football coach. The continuing nature of failure over years and years and through multiple administrations and coaching staffs tells me that the problem goes far beyond just the guy who is head coach at any given time.

Translation- stop throwing good money after bad?
-
Only one school is dumb enough to fire a head coach this late in the off-season.
-
That's ominous (and not unexpected).

8-28 over three years and woeful academic performance. Right or wrong, I could see it gaining some traction.

I guess I should have been clued into this when more women's lacrosse players walked across the JAR floor that football players on the night they recognized the academic dean's list athletes.

Kids are transferring out of schools all over the country yet the Zips are the ones in the toilet. Maybe if the kids had a reason to stay you wouldn't see as many transfers out. No training table, underfunded staff, awful records year after year.....

I just saw this. It is damn embarrassing. Bad football is a little more palatable if we can say the kids are at least excelling academically. When they are inadequate on and off the field you have to wonder what the hell is going on.

Amen, like I said "confusing." I'm not sure Nate understood all of the questions and some of his responses were as "fuzzy" as the questions asked. -

It's a confusing interview given the nature of questions and Nate's occasional odd answer. It was nice to hear him regret making such a late decision. -

....and mediocre at best at every stop. -
I went down and stayed until I started nodding off. I get that the weather changed things up but there was little or no effort to engage the fans or make it special in any regard, Finley looked okay. Roggow did not look good. Broughton could be something special. The specialists looked decent.

I sure hope it can handle the enormous crowd.

Wow, I just mentioned him as a guess when someone mentioned Duquesne and now he's here. Think of a more athletic Deng Riak. -
Will you be wearing a green shirt so that no one hits you during the tailgate?

Did this not seem like it was more fun as "The Spring Game" rather than the "Akron Zips Spring Open Practice"?
