What in the world is the point of this game and why are we wasting the ring/banner celebration on it?

Ford’s dad played and coached at Muskingum.

Saw that post-game and the game itself makes a lot more sense. 

 

I still don't agree with celebrating the rings/banner on a non-D1 game.

On the topic of noticing visitors in the crowd: 

 

Former Akron football grad assistant Jim Tressel was at the game.  He could only stay for the first half do to a speaking engagement on campus.  I only got to say a few words to him at halftime before he made a quick visit to our locker room before heading off for his speech. 

 

Also talked to Ricky Stokes who is the MAC Senior Associate Commisioner for men's and women's basketball.  Great guy.  He is really excited about the competition being fairly even as we start the season.

Forgot to mention that former Dambrot and Groce staff member Cole Pittis was also at the game.

I also think they should not have combined it with the Len Paul tribute.

At least with Len Paul it could've just been a scheduling thing with the family that they did it on the opener
