I haven’t spoken to him or seen an offer yet, but Maddox is a kid we had on campus and were in on before the P5 offers came in.

I wonder if God plans for him to come to Akron?

First offer I’ve seen. WMU CB grad transfer with 2 years of eligibility remaining. Played in 11 games in 2023 with 8 total tackles, 4 pass breakups, and an interception.

4 star QB Tanner Bailey will be in the portal with 3 years of eligibility remaining. Committed to JoeMo at Oregon and de-committed after the coaching change occurred. Something to keep an eye on.

Looks like he was buried on the depth chart, regardless.. only 2 years into his career so still plenty of time to live up to recruiting ranking. Do you bring Bailey up just due to the natural connection or is there more to it you’re aware of?

 

regardless, let’s get him!

Bailey was #2 on the depth chart by the end of 2022. This year he was leapfrogged by LaNorris Sellers. Elite 11 participant Dante Reno is coming in and supposedly Carolina is also the front runner for KJ Jefferson. So this is purely a move in which Bailey is looking for playing time. We haven’t offered yet (because technically we can’t) and we seem to be abiding by the rules. Not sure if we will offer but I have to imagine JoeMo will at least reach out. Bailey’s former teammate Joey Hunter could also put in a good word.

 

Another portal entry that is looking for more PT is WR O’Mega Blake. He’d be a solid addition, but we certainly aren’t hurting in the WR room. Similar player to Shocky Jacques-Louis, just not as accomplished. No direct connection to this staff that I know of though.

Thomas Buxton, 6-6, 335, OL, Stonehill College (he says it's D1)

 

Stonehill is D1, just FCS. Same football conference as St. Francis. I’m already out of likes btw.

How do you make a 6'7" man disappear? Put him at TE for Akron.

In the 1980's Robert Lyons was a tall safety like this for the Zips. He was one of the few D1 capable Zips from the Dennison years. Later played for the Browns and Vikings. Let's hope we get the same quality of safety.
