Zips fan Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 It is up on gozip.com already-amazing. It looks like a solid class. I haven't heard any questions regarding eligibility or character. I take that as a good sign and feel like this is JD's best strength. He is an awesome guy and I can see why he can recruit. I think that he has made better in roads in Ohio and they will continue to benefit the Zips for years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quickzips Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Am I the only one who thinks this class is awful heavy on the DB's? I know we lost quite a bit in terms of DB's this year, and we play with 5 of them in this ridiculous defense, but come on, nearly 1/3 of this class is listed at DB. Seems a bit excessive to me.Judging by what I'm reading and knowing how thin we are there it would be nice to see Bain and Harvey able to start on the defensive line with Sewell sooner rather than later. Hopefully Bowser can pick up where he left off at the JUCO level. We are gonna need someone to step up at WR. I'm also interested to see what Bruce can do. I know we are returning most of our offensive line, but from what I saw there last season there is room for improvement. In particular I would not mind Bice and Pachuta getting an opportunity to push for playing time early. I'm also intersted to see exactley how they handle the Fleming situation. I've always thought it would be awkward playing college ball for your dad, and it didn't seem like Will was always that excited about coming to Akron. He's a pretty good player though, can't complain about landing him, just think it is going to be an interesting situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Ouch. We lost out on 2 of our 6 3-star recruits. Ouch. Rivals has WR Marcus Cooper listed as still committed to Akron but not yet signed. What do you guys think is up w/ that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zipmeister Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 The good news for him is Buffalo appears to have a few scholarships available. The good news for us is we don't need him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
