NewZipsFan Posted January 8, 2012 Report Posted January 8, 2012 http://www.ohiofairs.org/ConvProg.pdf Coach spoke at the Ohio Fair Managers Convention in Columbus yesterday - and I hear there were about 2,000 people/1,500 high school students in attendance for his motivational speech. Also heard it was a rousing standing ovation That's a lot of kids going back to their schools tomorrow talking about The University of Akron! Quote

The Zips are using the coach talking to thousands of people who may never have heard of him in lieu of a golf outing to the same people every year. Granted, in the next 30 years, he could have had the same crowd at the golf outing, but this is good anyhow. Good job Zips. Thanks Coach B. Quote

No reason he can't do both big speeches and the golf outings. Quote
MDZip Posted January 9, 2012 Report Posted January 9, 2012 From the looks of the pdf, this was in the works before he became UA's head coach. That was either a nice bit of luck, an extreme coincidence or some real behind the scenes dealing no one was privy to. Quote

Tanks Buddy Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 I think people should stop bring up that dang golf outing... If you have a golf outing, I'll bet Bobby comes. Spent some awesome time with him on the links. What a fine gentleman he is. Expect Terry to just drive up and scare the heck out of you when you're about to hit the ball Quote
