Culture is improving, non football things are improving, but the football is still bad. Kato isn’t the answer IMO. The whole O line is done after this year IMO. And the defense needs a year or two to get to the average level. My hopes are still high but damn!!! Trust the process & go Zips!!
How do you know the culture is improving? There has been zero worth trusting this year. Are you really asking for another year or two? What a joke!

I never understood the enthusiasm for a guy (Arth) who does not have an established track record of winning. Who cares about his recruiting abilities if he cannot win? What we have seen from in games 1 and 2 has not been impressive. He wasn't starting where Bowden started.

Let the Arth excuses commence...sorry, he's on the clock, now. The recruits had little to do with the lack of discipline and overall lack of gameplan. He seems in over his head.

Davis was literally on the field all day.
I was on the road so I had to listen as opposed to watch. Used to hearing his name all game long.

There is zero to be optimistic about this season. I must have missed it somewhere, but where is Alvin Davis?
The hashtags are the lamest I have ever seen a football team use. #ourway and #heretodevelop
There are some who continually spout their ignorant criticisms about Bowden's age and southern roots, but the Zips have taken several steps backwards. Larry William's should lose his job.

3 suspended for the first game? Great start to the season.

Robert...Stein?? IIRC, he wasn't even a better kicker than his sibling, who was also a MAC kicker.
I believe Stein holds the Zips record for points scored. Robert was fairly consistent with FGs within his range. At one point, he lost the starting job but earned it back and was really solid after that point. I am pretty sure he let the other other kid keep his scholarship, too.

Where was Alvin Davis? Perhaps the best Zips returning defensive player was seemingly absent or silent.

Andre Williams is very ready and willing to help this team. Has not screwed up. Why has Coach Arth decided not to use him? Not his recruit? Not from Ohio? Impact Player, returning receiver with the better Stats of last season. I hope someone can get these answers.
Before the game the BTN announcers mentioned Williams as the best receiver in the Zips. Welcome to the Arth era.

He ended with 3 tackles. No flashy plays but he seemed to do his job. I didn't notice him a lot in the second half.

UGIII looked really good last night. He got in on D about mid 3rd quarter until the end of the game. INT at the goal line on a 2pt conversion, strip sack, and another sack. Another QB pressure/hit as well. I must've missed the 2nd sack. Not a single "negative" play (missed tackle, beat in coverage, etc). Pretty pumped for him..
I also didn't see MAC DPOY Sutton Smith on the field at all.
He did not play.
-
He more than impressed in his limited action. The Steelers announcers were all about him and citing the Steelers roster spots held by MAC players.

UGIII with 2 sacks, ain't I interception, and a strip in less than 6 minutes in the 4th. Really great night for him.

Sources indicating UGIII to be traded to the Brownies for Duke Johnson.

I think KB was overlooked because he did not have the numbers, but that was because opponents completely avoided him for 2-3 years. I really hope he does well.

At this point it would be best for Davis not to get drafted so he can pick the best team that gives him a chance to make the team.
Signed with the Texans.

Kyron Brown was signed by the Jets.

Good for Ulysees. He will have a great opportunity in Pittsburgh.
Differences [Arth/Bowden]
in Akron Zips Football
Posted
Bowden inherited the worst team in D1. At Chattanooga, Arth inherited a team who had a 9-4 record for two years prior to his arrival.
You cannot honestly tell me that what we are seeing is better offensive play calling, either.
As @Zipmeister indicated, this might not 9nly be a winless season, but the worst team in D1. Probably a good thing we didnt play a decent FCS team, this year.
