I place the over/under at 2 for how many high schoolers with Big 10 or SEC offers that the Zips sign. Anyone want to take the over? I'll take the over at a 2.5 line. So 2 or less you win, 3 or more I win. Edited March 8, 2022 by Let'sGoZips94 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll be able to beat out the lower echelon SEC/Big Ten schools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I place the over/under at 2 for how many high schoolers with Big 10 or SEC offers that the Zips sign. Anyone want to take the over? I will absolutely take the over. 1. Look at my post from a few days ago. As long as we sign a couple of top players each year, the program will improve. 2. Go to GoZips and look at the high school signees this year. The coaching staff was successful in being over with just the late signing period. If you count all P5 schools, Coach Joe was way over 2 even though 90% of the high school players sign early. I cannot wait to see what this staff does with an entire recruiting cycle. In Joe We Trust!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LZIp Posted March 9, 2022 Report Share Posted March 9, 2022 FWIW - This staff perhaps reaching out making offers to some higher tier P5 prospects is nothing new. You can easily look at prior year offers we've made and the programs they've committed with. For O/U of 2.5 of players with reported SEC/B1G offers, I'd probably take the over as well. I believe we got 3 in short order this year - Landers, Keylen Davis, and Jennings. Whether they were being actively recruited by them is another story, but the programs apparently felt good enough to make an offer at some point which means something.

Finally, Akron is pursuing top players with a fine coaching staff who know how to recruit. I have been ripped on this forum for stating the same approach of pursuing top players. As I stated earlier, as long as you can sign 2-3 top players per year and a lot of 3 star players, the team will be winning big time very soon. In Joe We Trust!!!!

Zipmeister Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 We have a lot of catching up to do. In the most recently signed recruiting class 247 reports that the 9 MAC teams with higher rated classes than ours signed 119 3*. We got 5. On a positive note, right now 247 has our 2023 class ranked tied for 5th best in the MAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catdaddyp Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 On 10/22/2021 at 8:17 AM, Blue & Gold said: 2023 VERBAL COMMITMENTS Steele Wassel , QB, 6-4, 210, Choctaw HS, Choctaw, OK This kid is impressive. With QBs, it’s always hard to know how successful they’ll be at the next level as so much of it is mental. Assuming Wassel picks things up quickly, he’ll be an excellent addition. He has plenty of arm strength, always keeps his eyes down field, and can efficiently scramble when he needs to. Its pretty clear this staff is targeting mobile quarterbacks. My concern is the ability to hang on to him as more offers are likely to come if he has a big senior season. https://www.hudl.com/video/3/11660442/61b13a44d21bb50410a1a351 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter the sport there is a lot of passion for the Zips here. Your quote above tells me you are well on your way to becoming a typical Zip fan in that despite our success we start worrying about what can go wrong. We are working on expecting success no matter what as soccer, track, swimming & diving and basketball programs have shown. Give us time with football as we have been thru great trauma. But we will get there. The journey is shaping up to be fun. In Joe We Trust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
