talked to david last week and he informed me that he will be on the field for the zips next year. he is back in class and his academics are all going to be in order. Now lets hope that this is all true. Also heard from another player on the team that the QB situation for next year is already pretty clear.....MATT RODGERS will be lining up behind center, and possibly have CJ7 moved to WR. We will have to see how things work out with any HS players that they sign, but after all the talk this year it looks like they were holding Matt back his true freshman year so he could lead the team for many years to come. But no QB will be able to do anything with the offensive playcalling that they had this year..... hopefully that Offense gets a new look and we dont run that BS HS offense. That O is only good when you have the proper personel, and we dont have it so lets get sothign new.

Jabari Arthur (WR) and Reggie Corner (DB) were each tabbed first team. Brion Stokes (LB), Chris Kemme (OL) and Almondo Sewell (DL) were each named to the second team with John Mackey (DB), Bryan Williams (both RB and KR) and Kevin Grant (LB) receiving third team honors. (Complete All MAC list is listed at bottom of page)Jabari Arthur (Montreal, Quebec/Vanier Prep) had an All-American-type season, setting nearly every receiving record in the Akron record book. His trek to the record-setting season received a big boost in week six when he set UA single-game records with 15 receptions for 223 yards in the Zips’ win at Western Michigan. He additionally caught three touchdowns in the contest as he was named MAC East Offensive Player of the Week and was named a weekly all-star on ESPN’s College Football Live. Arthur finished the season with a school-record 86 receptions (11 more than the previous record) and 1,171 yards, which is second on the UA single-season list and 39 yards shy of the school record. His 10 touchdowns led all MAC receivers and ranks second on the UA single-season list. This season, Arthur caught at least at least seven passes in a game six times and broke the 100-yard barrier four times. He ranks 11th in the NCAA and third in the MAC in receptions per game (7.17), while ranking 17th in the NCAA and second in the MAC in receiving yards per game (97.58). For his career, Arthur became the school’s all-time leader in both receptions (184) and receiving yards (2,653), while his 17 career TDs ranks third all-time. In the MAC record book, Arthur’s 15 single-game catches is fourth, his 86 single-season catches is 16th, his 184 career catches is 20th, his 223 single-game yards is 17th, his 1,171 single-season yards is 21st and his 2,653 career yards is 20th.Reggie Corner (Canton, Ohio/McKinley HS) started every game for Akron over the past four years and earned first team All-MAC honors after leading the league and ranking fifth in the NCAA in interceptions (0.58 per game). Corner added 12 pass breakups to go along with his seven interceptions to tie teammate Davanzo Tate as the MAC leader in passes defended (1.58), which ranks fifth in the NCAA. His seven picks is the third-best total in the nation to date this season and is fourth on the Akron single-season list. Corner opened the season being named MAC East Defensive Player of the Week after returning an interception 74 yards for a TD in the win over Army. The following week, he had another pick and two pass breakups, one of which led to a Mackey interception. His solid play continued at Indiana, where he had a career-high eight tackles. In Akron’s win over rival Can't State, Corner intercepted a pass and returned it 43 yards to the Can't State two, setting up what proved to be Akron’s game-winning TD. He added two picks in the Temple contest and one each versus Miami and Central Michigan. He also closed the season with six PBU over the final three games, including a career-high four versus the Chippewas. Corner ended his career with 197 tackles (52 in 2007), 15 interceptions and 35 PBU. His 15 career picks ties current NFL defensive back Dwight Smith for second on the Akron all-time list. Also, Corner ranks eighth on the MAC all-time list with his 15 career picks and ranks seventh on the MAC all-time list with his 225 career return yards off interceptions.Brion Stokes (Charlotte, N.C./Butler HS) earns second team All-MAC honors for the second time his career, after being honored in 2005 when he helped the Zips win the MAC title that season. Stokes led the Zips with 90 tackles this season, 17 of which went for losses with 5.5 sacks. His 17 TFL was the most by a Zip since NFL great Jason Taylor had 18 in 1996. He ranks seventh in the MAC and 37th in the NCAA in tackles for losses (1.21 per game), while ranking ninth in the MAC in sacks. Stokes opened the season getting four tackles for losses, including a sack, with a forced fumble in the Zips win over Army. The following week, he accounted for the Zips’ only points thanks to a sack in the first quarter in a 20-2 loss to nationally-ranked Ohio State. In Akron’s win over Can't State, Stokes was named MAC East Defensive Player of the Week, getting 10 tackles and recovering a fumble to set up UA’s first TD. Two weeks later in the Zips’ win over Western Michigan, he had a season-high 11 tackles, including three for losses with two sacks. He tied that seasonal-best effort versus Buffalo and logged 10 stops in the Zips’ win over Ohio, including three for losses. For his career, Stokes amassed 272 tackles, the most by a Zip over the last four years, with 13.5 sacks, three fumble recoveries and a forced fumble. His 45 career tackles for losses eclipsed the 41 which has stood in the Akron record books since Taylor left after playing for the Zips from 1993-96.Chris Kemme (Upper Arlington, Ohio/Upper Arlington HS) earns second team All-MAC honors for the second consecutive season. The 6-6, 300-pound left tackle anchored the Zips offensive line this season and played a key role in Williams giving the Zips their second back on the honorary squad in as many years. While the Zips did not have a 1,000-yard rusher, Williams and Alex Allen combined for 1,148 yards on 252 attempts to average 4.52 yards per rush. More often than not, when the Zips needed a key run, it would be to Kemme’s side. Also, the Zips averaged 127.8 rushing yards per game, the best total in the four-year tenure of head coach J.D. Brookhart. Also, Kemme’s blocking provided the time needed to complete passes to Arthur in his record-setting season.Almondo Sewell (Trenton, N.J./Hargrave Military [Va.] Acad./Trenton Central HS) was one of just three freshmen, either true or redshirted, to be named all-conference. After coming to Akron as a linebacker, he made the move to defensive end due to injuries along the defensive front and his play-making ability. After a slow start to the season -— learning the position, Sewell ended his freshman campaign with 65 tackles, fifth-best on the team, with 14 tackles for losses. Also, in Akron’s eight league games, Sewell had 51 tackles, second-best on the squad. He had at least one TFL in 10 of Akron’s 12 games, including at least one in the final eight games of the season. His 0.83 TFL per game ranked 17th-best in the MAC and his two forced fumbles ranked ninth. He began his break-out season at Indiana, getting five tackles — all assists. The following week versus Can't State, he had six solos stops. Midway through the season, he put up impressive numbers on consecutive weeks to be Akron’s weekly player of the week nominee. In Akron’s win over Western Michigan, he had eight tackles with his two forced fumbles. The following week, he turned in a career-high 11 tackles with two for losses. John Mackey (Uniontown, Ohio/Walsh Jesuit HS) earns his first MAC post-season honor. The defensive captain was on pace to perhaps be a first team honoree, but an injury forced him to miss all or most of five games. The injury — a torn ACL — occurred early in Akron’s win over Can't State and was thought to keep the fifth-year senior off the field the rest of the season. Prior to the injury, Mackey was leading the team with 28 tackles, including nine at Ohio State with a pick and a career-high 13 at Indiana. He additionally had three TFL for minus 22 yards versus the Hoosiers to earn his first MAC East Defensive Player of the Week honor. Although he only played a few snaps versus the Golden flushes, Mackey still had two tackles, a pass breakup and a forced fumble. He was set to have his career-ending surgery, prior to the Temple game. However, the heart-and-soul of this year’s team decided, after working out and consulting with the medical staff, to return to the field. Mackey saw action in one series at Buffalo, just to see how he would hold up in game situations. The following week, he saw more action at Bowling Green, making six tackles and getting a PBU. He returned to the starting lineup versus Ohio and made nine tackles the following week at Miami. Mackey also had two picks versus the RedHawks, both in the endzone as the Zip defense did not allow any points in the 7-0 loss. Mackey ended his career with 239 tackles, leading the team in tackles in 2006 and ranking second in 2005. He had 20 career TFL, four interceptions, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.Kevin Grant (Herndon, Va./Herndon HS) ranked third on the team with 74 stops. The 2005 Freshman All-American has ranked among the team’s top four in stops each of his first three years, ranking second last season and fourth in 2005. This year, Grant had 11 tackles at Indiana, despite leaving that contest with an injury that slowed the junior the next two games. He also had double digit stops with 10 at Bowling Green Grant had at least one tackle for loss in four of Akron’s last six games, including two each at Buffalo, at Bowling Green and at Miami. Grant has 234 tackles in just three seasons with 33 TFL to his credit.Bryan Williams (Akron, Ohio/Valley Forge [Pa.]/Buchtel HS) burst onto the scene the first play of the 2007 season, returning the opening kickoff 70 yards. He ranks second in the NCAA and first in the MAC with his kick return average of 31.90 yards per return. Williams’ 31.90 yards per return additionally stands as an Akron single-season record and ranks second on the MAC seasonal list (the record is 32.9 by Marshall’s James Williams in 1999). His other big games as a return specialist include two of 117 yards versus Can't State, three for 105 yards at UConn and four for 151 yards versus Ohio. In the win over the Bobcats, Williams returned a kick 95 yards for a touchdown and was named MAC East Special Teams Player of the Week. As a running back, he only had 728 yards on the season. However, he had 612 of those yards in league play, averaging 4.9 yards per carry versus MAC opponents. Although Western Michigan kicked away from Williams, the junior still had a big role in the Zips win, getting 72 yards on 14 rushes (5.1 avg.) and catching three passes for 74 yards with a 60-yard TD. The following week, Williams broke the century mark for the first time, gaining 114 yards on 22 attempts. He capped the season with a career effort, gaining 145 yards on 18 attempts (8.1 avg.) thanks to TD runs of 61 and 56 yards. Williams ended the season 10th in the MAC in rushing yards (60.67 per game) and seventh in all-purpose yards per game (133.50), which also ranks 51st in the NCAA. 2007 All-MAC Football Awards Vern Smith Leadership Award Winner: Larry English, Northern IllinoisCoach of the Year: Turner Gill, BuffaloOffensive Player of the Year: Dan LeFevour, Central MichiganDefensive Player of the Year: Clayton Mullins, MiamiSpecial Teams Player of the Year: Brett Kern, ToledoFreshman of the Year: Antonio Brown, Central Michigan All-MAC First Team OffenseQuarterback – Dan LeFevour, Central MichiganCenter – Kory Lichtensteiger, Bowling GreenOffensive Lineman – Robert Brewster, Ball StateOffensive Lineman – Matt Miller, OhioOffensive Lineman – John Greco, ToledoOffensive Lineman – James Blair, Western MichiganTight End – Darius Hill, Ball StateWide Receiver – Jabari Arthur, AkronWide Receiver – Dante Love, Ball StateWide Receiver – Jamarko Simmons, Western MichiganRunning Back – Eugene Jarvis, Can't StateRunning Back – Kalvin McRae, OhioRunning Back – Jalen Parmele, ToledoPlacekicker - Michael Braunstein, Ohio All-MAC Second Team OffenseQuarterback – Nate Davis, Ball StateCenter – Jamey Richard, BuffaloOffensive Lineman – Chris Kemme, AkronOffensive Lineman – Drew Nystrom, Bowling GreenOffensive Lineman – Andrew Hartline, Central MichiganOffensive Lineman – Gus Parrish, Can't StateTight End – Andrew Mooney, OhioWide Receiver – Bryan Anderson, Central MichiganWide Receiver – Antonio Brown, Central MichiganWide Receiver – Stephen Williams, ToledoRunning Back – James Starks, BuffaloRunning Back – Justin Anderson, Northern IllinoisRunning Back – Brandon West, Western MichiganPlacekicker - Alex Steigerwald, Toledo All-MAC Third Team OffenseQuarterback – Tyler Sheehan, Bowling GreenCenter – Robbie Krutilla, Western MichiganOffensive Lineman – Jeff Niedermier, BuffaloOffensive Lineman – Eric Tunney, Central MichiganOffensive Lineman – Dave DiFranco, MiamiOffensive Lineman – Jon Brost, Northern IllinoisTight End – Branden Ledbetter, Western MichiganWide Receiver – Freddie Barnes, Bowling GreenWide Receiver – Naaman Roosevelt, BuffaloWide Receiver – Nick Moore, ToledoRunning Back – Bryan Williams, AkronRunning Back – Justin Hoskins, Central MichiganRunning Back – Pierre Walker, Eastern MichiganPlacekicker – Sinisa Vrvilo, Bowling Green All-MAC First Team DefenseOutside Linebacker – Ike Brown, Central MichiganOutside Linebacker – Clayton Mullins, MiamiDown Lineman – Dirayl Briggs, Bowling GreenDown Lineman – Jason Jones, Eastern MichiganDown Lineman – Colin Ferrell, Can't StateDown Lineman – Larry English, Northern IllinoisInside Linebackers – Red Keith, Central MichiganInside Linebackers – Daniel Holtzclaw, Eastern MichiganDefensive Back – Reggie Corner, AkronDefensive Back – Davonte Shannon, BuffaloDefensive Back – Barry Church, ToledoDefensive Back – Londen Fryar, Western MichiganPunter – Chris Miller, Ball State All-MAC Second Team DefenseOutside Linebacker – Brion Stokes, Akron Outside Linebacker – Boston McCornell, Western MichiganDown Lineman – Almondo Sewell, AkronDown Lineman – Trevor Scott, BuffaloDown Lineman – Landon Cohen, OhioDown Lineman – Andre Neblett, TempleDown Lineman – Zach Davidson, Western MichiganInside Linebackers – Bryant Haines, Ball StateInside Linebackers – Joe Hudson, MiamiDefensive Back – B.J.

That's the best we could do with the nations top (pending) facilities? Nothing against coach Matthews, but if this rumor is true then we should be able to get someone with a better overall record.This is waaaayyy too fast. If this were the case, that would mean that they already had planned on firing JD weeks ago and already have had contact with this other coach. I find that hard to believe.I would think there would be some type of search to find the best available talent. Not just pick 1 guy and go with him.However, if this is true, it could end up being good. This is much better for recruiting to get a guy in here right away instead of having to wait until January. Hopefully, if true, this guy is the right guy.If this is true, the only reason that we get this guy so fast is because he was a coach at UTEP under Mack when he was the AD. Not sure that jumping on a coach that fast is the answer. Akron was in pretty much every game this year, they were just a play or two ( or three) away from winning it. I think that if we got rid of the BS offensive play calling things would have been alot different. The offense we used is one for a team with a running and passing QB, like Central Michigan.... Jaq is not a running QB. Our offense was made to have CJ7 in there, the guy they originally thought would be the starter............ but for some odd reason, JD and his staff held a grudge against him this year. They say that they wanted to play the QB who would not commit the mistakes, but look at the stats......... Jaq committed the mistakes and still was aloud to run this team more and more into the ground. After midway thru the year if he wasent producing and moving the Ball, i would think it was time to take a look at other options.

I said this last year, that within the next few years the lady zips would be playing against and stayin competitive with everyone, and people were saying i was crazy. i went to quite a few lady zip basketball games and seen the difference from 2 years ago to last year. they are doing a great job, and with the recruiting class they just announced, things will only get better.

Mackey. you have always been a class act and a joy to watch on the field. its to bad we are losing you because you truely were the heart and soul of our D. You and Reggie will be deeply missed by all the zipsnation.

just got home from the freezing cold Bowl. Whats going on with JD. Get your head out of your a$$ JD and if your buddy JAQ. isnt getting the job done then try somtyhing new. When Jaq was holding onto the ball, an not making plays, make a change. Yea, people say that CJ7 is to quick to run the ball......... but thats a heck of alot better then holding onto it and taking a sack, or throwing into coverage and gettin picked. Alot of things need to change before next year, because i know me and the 4 people i brought to each game are going to find it hard to go to another game and be let down. we had this one in the bag, but bad play calling and bad game management by JAQ gave it away................... pretty much sums up this season.

Farmington Hills Harrison RB Norman Shuford made his college choice this weekend. The shifty back had been busy taking visits this week, but it was one school who has always had a place with him and they won the derby for his services. Norman Shuford, a 5'9, 170-lb tailback from Farmington Hills (MI) Harrison committed to Akron over the weekend. Shuford had offers from Eastern Michigan and Western Michigan as well as from Michigan State, Central Michigan and Grand Valley State. In fact, Shuford had been to Allendale earlier in the week, but it was his official visit to Akron on Saturday that sealed the deal. "GVSU was cool," Shuford reported, "but I went on my official to Akron and it was great. I had a really good time and I felt like I was at home, so I committed." As is the case with most recruits, Shuford is excited about his new home, but maybe even more glad (initially at least) that the rigors of being a college recruit are done with. "It feels like I got 10,000 pounds off my

what about local HS coach. Thom Mcdaniels. He did one heck of a job running the old Mckinley offenses, then went to warren harding where he did a great job, now he is at massillion perry where he did a very good job. He is a very good coach who could help pull the local talent an keep them here at akron.

they cant stop jabari. but he cant do it himself. The OL needs to start makin holes and Alex allen an B. Will need to run to daylight the whole night. I really hate the way they run the ball.... they should line up with a FB and pound the ball. and as a side note. I was at the game last week, and they didnt announce if Mr. Perfect (stokes) broke the TFL record. I know he was only 2 away and im pretty sure that he had 3 TFL. anyone know if he did or not? and if so why didnt they say anything about it during the game.

I know one thing, hopefully after this year we will get a new offensive cordinator. this guy hasent done anything to make this team better. The play calling is so easy to get used to.... it goes a little like this.QB handoff to RB up the middle.....QB Handoff to RB up the middle.... he bounces it outside.QB fake hand off... keep up the middle.QB Screen to RB out of the backfield.The play calling this year has made me appreciate the play calling from the Getsy and Frye era more and mroe each game.Our Defense needs to change too. the 3-3-5 is not a defense that we are fit for, because we dont have the depth at the DL position. We need to move to somthing that gets more pressure on the QB, and forces more turnovers. the QB tonight had all kinds of time to throw the ball, and sit in the pocket. Hopefully we can get some things adjusted before wednesday at the Bowl against Ohio, because I dont know how much more of it i can take.

I highly doubt it's a personal grudge, because if it was, most athletes would try to transfer out of that kind of situation.he may be looking into transfering out of it. who knows. I know that if i were him and i was the better player an was still getting screwed over, i would. looks like we will have to wait an see how the season turns out an go from there.

AFTER THE LAST FEW WEEKS, I HAVE FALLEN MORE AND MORE INTO THE GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO WANT CJ11 OUT OF THERE. HE HAS NOT PUT THIS TEAM INTO THE BEST POSITION TO WIN GAMES AND I THINK IT IS TIME FOR JD TO GET HIS HEAD OUT OF HIS REAR AND STOP HOLDING ANY TYPE OF GRUDGE TOWARDS JACKSON FOR SOMTHING THAT HE DONE EARLIER IN THE SEASON. JACKSON HAS ALREADY PROVED THAT HE CAN WIN FOOTBALL GAMES............... IF WE HAD CJ11 BEHIND CENTER WHEN WE PLAYED THAT GAME AGAINST CANT STATE AT THE BOWL, DO YOU THINK WE WOULD HAVE WON? MORE THEN LIKELY NOT, BECAUSE JACKSONS ABILITY TO USE HIS LEGS WHEN A PLAY BREAKS DOWN FORCED THE LINEBACKERS TO STAY CLOSER TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE, AND WHEN THEY DID START MOVING TOWARDS THE LINE, HE WAS ABLE TO GET THE BALL OVER THEIR HEADS TO THE WR'S. CJ11 HAS A HABIT OF EYEING DOWN JABARI FROM THE START OF THE PLAY TO THE FINISH, AND ALOT OF TIMES IT RESULTS IN AN INT. SO I KNOW PERSONALLY I AM HOPING THAT WHEN WE KICK OFF FRIDAY NIGHT AT 7:30 AGAINST BOWLING GREEN ( WHO LOST TO OHIO TONIGHT) THAT JACKSON IS BEHIND CENTER, BECAUSE IM NOT SURE I CAN STAND MUCH MORE OF SEEING CJ11 BACK THERE LOSING GAMES FOR US AND NOT GIVING US A CHANCE IN HELL TO WIN!!!!PS: THIS IS THE OFFICIAL PETITION FOR THE COACHING STAFF TO MAKE A CHANGE AT THE QB POSITION HA HA.

zippy is now leading 19000 to 18974 as of 6:54 today (10-25)

I went to the Mogadore game this past weekend to check out this kid, because i was told that Akron had offered him and he was going to accept. The kid is huge for a RB, i mean "Beanie" Wells size, maybe a little bit bigger ( 6'3 235 LBS) and the kid could run. The team i seen him play against wasent all that good, so im going to follow him in the playoffs and see how he does.

Is anyone else tired of seeing jaqamain stink up the field, make mistakes, and not win football games? But for some reason the coaching staff thinks he is the best think to come along since sliced bread! how bout we play the player who gives up the best chance of winning, and that is obviously Jackson.

Can't has always been in the dust since the day they became a college. OU got beat by Can't so they are done. Buffalo is just a mystery. Temple is just plain old bad. I dont think that temple is as bad as people think. look at the teams they lost to and the margin of loss.... they lost to Uconn by 5 points. so their not as bad as people think, we better not underestimate them or we will end up gettin bit.

You have no clue what you are talkin about whoever this person is. Can't ranked higher then Miami, after miami beat them. and I may be wrong, but didnt they beat a BCS school ( syracuse) also? I will never look at this site again!

Hey im sitting here watching sportscenter, and the number one play for the week....... was none other then the "Zippy Roo Miracle in Kalamazoo" ha ha. This was my first time seeing it, and i loved it.

He has been one of the very few bright spots for this team so far this season. He has been doing a very good job running the ball, and he has done a GREAT job returning the kickoffs. It really has softened the blow of losing Harvey. Hope that some of his heart and desire to win rubs off on a few others. and not to look to far ahead, but has anyone thought bout next year if Harvey is to return to the team............ Harvey AND williams back deep returning.

yea he is only a junior, but akron has already offered him.

I heard that CJ was a little late for a team meeting that he found out about at the last minute. There's no doubt that JD made an example of him. I'm just glad he did it before the MAC season really starts. I heard 2 different stories. One being that he was late for a position meeting that he didnt hear about till the last minute, and then i heard that he was 5 minutes late for the team bus. Im going to try to get ahold of him and see whats going on. but if JD is going to be this strict on CJ, then he better make sure that he jjust as strict on every other player.
