North Carolina QB Recruit

Akron singled-out as pursuing this big QB

[Quickzips]

Anyone else a little miffed that the tone of the article kind of treats us (and really all of the MAC schools) as kind of an afterthought. I know we should be used to this by now, but it's almost like we're a D-2 school. Like, ohh yeah Illinois and Purdue are interested and so is ECU, ohh yeah and then there are those MAC schools like Akron. I dunno, just rubbed me the wrong way I guess.

Believe it or not, Akron got some solid street cred in the Carolinas with the NC State win. It could be the writer's way of identifying the MAC...they don't know Ball State down there, but they remember the Zips.

ECU is in the running. That place is a dump. The only interesting thing about ECU is their fan base. It is an combination of beach bums and red necks. I hear the tailgating is pretty good because of that.

It's true. I was one myspace or facebook or somewhere and some girl posted pics from the grand opening of some cafe in north carolina and some kid was wearing an Akron T-shirt. I was like woah!
