freddiecoffey Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 The actual full quote isMust-see game: Sept. 19 vs. Indiana. The Zips welcome their first-ever Big Ten opponent, the Hoosiers, to Akron and break in their new stadium all in one fell swoop. Which, as you can see, is incorrect. Nice find G-mann, I already contacted the writer and suggested he check his facts... I also should've made fun of his humorless SNL headline.

I opened up a thread over there too, just to make sure he at least pays attention to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Z Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Personally, I liked the article. Are you guys just bent because they didn't pick Akron #1? You know nobody ever won a MAC championship in a preseason prediction article. I enjoyed the writers link to Almond's interview, I missed that one in July. I liked his headline as much as I like Dan, that dude is fun to watch and should be playing on Sundays eventually. I would rather the Zips be picked fifth in all the preseason rags, I like being the underdog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kangaroo Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 If we finish 5th in the MAC East this season, I'll make naked snow angels on the Infocision 50 yard line during halftime of the EMU game.UUUUUuunnZip.......UnZip go the Zippers!

And inconsistency in decisioning.Buffalo will repeat when they lost the biggest key to their offense (an overperforming Drew Willy).Ball State will scrape the bottom of the West when they are in the same situation as Buffalo (key players returning at RB and on Defense)Temple who barely squeeked out 4 wins (they kicked our butt so that doesn't count) is 2 and they lost their key offensive players, and the reason they lost was weak offense.They just don't do any real research. As I pointed out with the quote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a classic product of a college system and consequently his game does not translate effectively to the pro level IMHO. I tell you what. I'll do the naked angel thing with the Can't T-shirt if proven otherwise. Or else I'll promise NOT to do it. Your choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like his release and pocket presence. We'll get a better evaluation come September 26th. Then we can have a more educated debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
