You make a really good point. You sound indifferent. I'm indifferent at this point. I don't blame you if you are. Like the WWE or not, Vince McMahon is a brilliant entertainer and promoter. I highly encourage everyone to watch the Netflix documentary on him. He talks a lot about "heat". When someone boos or cheers, that means the superstar is generating heat. The greater the heat, the more important to the WWE the character is. No heat? Better find a way to generate some or look for another career. The Zips football program hasn't generated heat for a while now. It does little to nothing to support the at athletes students alumni fans and general community around Akron. Why would anyone care? We are looking at something worse than a disgusted fan base. We are looking at an indifferent fan base. It's the worst place for the program to be. Crushing a season before it starts is not a good way to generate heat.

SHS was very high level FCS. There isn't a great deal of difference between that and mid to low level G5. Heck, there isn't much difference between high level G5 and P4 but there is a slight difference. All it takes is a couple better players in key positions and you can make that jump to a bowl game.

Maybe they are just stupid.

He was on a staff that won the MAC at Akron.

Do you realize how narrow you have defined the search? Throw in, "and willing to live in northeast Ohio", and maybe we'll fill the spot in a few years.

Simple. Football players are less coachable than ever. It's a societal problem.

I have some news to break. Mrs GP1, the luckiest woman in the world, has been contacted about her interest in the Akron coaching job. Her qualifications include, but are not limited to: *Ability to put up with general nonsense. * MBA from UofA. * Ability to throw back martinis at Ken Stewart's in order to numb pain of losing. * Views cloudy days as a blessing.

Fundamental plays are a victim of the transfer portal. There is no time to effectively practice the basics. Catching a punt inside the 10 is one. Tackling is atrocious. Understanding the game situations is horrible. College football is becoming a bad product.

In addition, his estimated salary at LC is $1.5 million per year. On what planet does he leave the NFL for a coach killing school like Akron?

If Joe wants to coach another year at Akron, the job is his.

Lazy journalism, if you want to call it journalism at all. Charlie has a good life in Miami. Why trade that for Akron? Luke would take a huge pay while trading Last Vegas for Akron. The others are names pulled out of a hat.

I'll take the over.

I'm a huge fan of comedy.

I hope it doesn't get to the point where I have to make this decision.

You had to go and say it ......

Yes. The field flooded.

Turnovers and points off turnovers are the two data points that result in winning or losing. The Zips can't win this game because of them.

I was driving home from the Wake Forest vs Clemson game and listened to the end of the Guardians game. Then I switched on the Zips game just in time for the muffed kick. I thought the same thing.

I also heard Atari is getting rid of the joystick.

They don't stand a chance.

I remember CK posting something. I trust him.

Considering recent budget cuts including elimination of a training table and the Kentucky to OSU stupidity, I think it's a legitimate discussion.

I guess I should look at the schedule more. Five of the first seven games on the road. What could go wrong?

Those are all for the fans and students. The players don't care anymore. I wish I was wrong.
