I know of one former players' parents who were upset that he was not played after a concussion. Just because people complain, doesn't make it valid. I don't think Jerome Lane even showed up for the awards banquet. I don't think there was any doubt that JoJo deserved that award and it's too bad that his mom had to take to social media about it. 1 hour ago, Zipgrad01 said: That is my entire point, but everyone just wants to shrug all this off as nothing. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. With the pathetic 2nd half performance last year I tend to pay more attention to things like this, especially when all the noise came from your best players and supposed leaders. No, people just get tired of every thread turning into an anti-Bowden thread - there have been at least three in the last week. Does every discussion have to be about what is wrong with the program? LTT served us well and we served him well. There seems to be no ill-will towards Akron. There is a presumption of ill-will, by some, but that does not make it so. Gehrig Dieter took a shot at Alabama and it paid off for him - he got to play in the CFB championship game. There is a glass ceiling for MAC schools and LTT is talented enough to play for one of the higher ranked schools - why wouldn't he, if playing for a national championship is a dream? Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted January 13, 2017 Report Posted January 13, 2017 Can I place my bet that he ends up at South Florida? Quote

Sergeant Zip Posted January 13, 2017 Report Posted January 13, 2017 Can plan anywhere if the he gets accepted into a program not offered at UA. Quote

Gotta be an obscure degree I'd imagine for UA not to offer it. Big bet to make on yourself IMO. Edited January 13, 2017 by LZIp Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted January 13, 2017 Report Posted January 13, 2017 HML = Hate My Life? Had to look it up. Sucks that he won't be able to pursue a Masters in Polymer Science. Quote

USF has one of the nation's premier graduate programs in applied anthropology. America needs more ethnographic experts in the social dynamics of athletic culture. Maybe he can write his thesis on what makes athletes compete despite the dangers associated with the brain - jarring violence of their sport. Or he could study how masculine "locker room culture" effects the political and cultural relations between the sexes. Seems he may already have insights that could serve as ready-made academic models for discussion. The issues he has dealt with in his own life can help him be a leader and an educator with his intellectual talents. And, he can employ his football experience as a laboratory of knowledge. Best wishes to the young man. Quote

zzx Posted August 7, 2017 Report Posted August 7, 2017 Looks like LTT has ended up at UTEP: According to this article, he will probably battle for a starting position at Left Tackle 1 Quote
Buckzip Posted August 7, 2017 Report Posted August 7, 2017 Perhaps he's a college gear collector. Quote
zipsoutsider Posted August 7, 2017 Author Report Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) He is probably the second guy to regret leaving the Zips early, last year. I guess Michigan didn't work out. Edited August 7, 2017 by zipsoutsider Quote
kreed5120 Posted August 7, 2017 Report Posted August 7, 2017 I thought he transferred because Akron didn't offer the grad program he wanted? If so, I don't know what's the shock. Quote

LZIp Posted August 7, 2017 Report Posted August 7, 2017 He was so "good" that he ended up at a worse program than UA. Quote
