1981 grad Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 With Harney and Bentacourt leaving, there seems to be a trend of players not completing their 4 years of eligibility at school. I have followed the program for many years and it seemed that in the past players who did not improve their game would stay with the team and take a role as a bench player. Akron always recruited some big guys with limited athletic ability but they would stay with the program and complete their degree. The question would always be would the coach start the player on senior night. Now, it seems if the player does not get playing time they transfer out of the program and go to another school. I know Alex and Harney left for different reasons but they did not earn their degree.I cannot recall their names, but I would think we have had about a dozen recruits not graduate within the past 5 years.
