Zips in the NFL

Any Zips player who has pro aspirations is long gone from Infocision by the time their senior season rolls around.

A sad reality of modern college football.There was a run in the 2000s where Zips pro days included multiple prospects and were very well attended.  It was an exciting and inspirational time for underclassmen too to see their teammates getting evaluated for their shot and what the future could hold for them if they worked hard and did the right things. Those days are gone.

Random thought: it seems like schools are having players sign contracts. Generally speaking, most players coming to Akron don’t have opportunities elsewhere. Why wouldn’t we 1) require players to sign multi year contracts, and 2) require players to pay us x percentage of NIL/revenue sharing they receive at new schools they are leaving us for if they break their contract?
