We're gonna need a few more LB's after this season. Quote
Blue & Gold Posted October 10, 2018 Author Report Posted October 10, 2018 Great job again Otis Mounds!!! Keyon was on his official visit for the Miami game, so the drubbing obviously didn't upset him as much as it did me 1 Quote

I've also seen where he's got an offer from Florida. Quote

Blue & Gold Posted October 29, 2018 Author Report Posted October 29, 2018 Quan Easterling picked up an offer from Wisconsin. Christopher Uran is Zips' LB commit Jared Uran's father & drops encouraging notes to other Zip recruits on twitter. He seems like a great guy. He tweeted this: I, of course, "Liked" his tweet. Lol 2 Quote

What are the odds any of those big time programs are looking at this guy as a linebacker? His weight makes some of our corners look like down linemen. Quote

Blue & Gold Posted November 19, 2018 Author Report Posted November 19, 2018 Got another one! De'carleon Townsend. He's listed as a LB, but is probably coming in as a safety or an athlete. His Hudl highlight video is 10 minutes long & features a ton of great hits & also a bunch of nice runs from the RB position. I listed him as a LB on Post #1. Quote

I listed him as a LB on Post #1. Nice. Looks like we just offered him yesterday. Also has offers from EMU and BG (where he was committed before). Would like to see us target more athletes from this area, especially watching Andy Isabella just tear up college football this season. Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted November 19, 2018 Report Posted November 19, 2018 In case anyone forgot...Early Signing Day is held in late December. The traditional February signing day will still exist, but 90+% of the D-1 athletes are expected to be signed in December. Quote

zipsoutsider Posted December 4, 2018 Report Posted December 4, 2018 Probably not. Mounds will move on and up. Quote
Blue & Gold Posted December 9, 2018 Author Report Posted December 9, 2018 (edited) We've lost a couple of recruits. No surprise; to be expected and I totally get it. This will be an "interesting" recruiting year. Quan Easterling flipped to Wisconsin and DeCarleon Townsend flipped to Air Force We should be expecting more de-commits (I’m really keeping my fingers crossed DeeArius Reese doesn't de-commit). I'll post them here and keep the initial Post #1 updated as well. Go Zips! Edited December 10, 2018 by Blue & Gold 1 Quote
Blue & Gold Posted December 9, 2018 Author Report Posted December 9, 2018 Blood in the water for Zipsoutsider! Bowden was awesome, dammit!!! Zipsoutsider in 3...2...1... Quote
Blue & Gold Posted December 10, 2018 Author Report Posted December 10, 2018 It can be tough being an Akron fan. I just watched us lose 1-0 to Maryland in the soccer NC & then hopped on twitter & saw we lost one of our bigger verbal commitments, LB Max Wynn, to Miami (O). Quote
