zipboy Posted December 23, 2004 Report Posted December 23, 2004 Listened to some of the Joe Dunn show Monday night. He had on Bill Green from Ohio High magazine. A few tidbits 1. Javon Ringer committed to MSU. I know I was the only guy who thought we had a chance to land him. I stand corrected. 2. Joe Dunn said JD is not looking and he sees JD here for the next 4-6 years. If JD really wants to step up, the best way to do that is take Akron up a few levels. Given the committment from administration, I agree that he is in a good situation here. 3. Joe and Fred Mowery (Joe's sidekick) were almost giddy in talking about how good Akron's class is looking. While Joe is always enthusiastic, Fred is a more even keel guy. I take it as a good sign that Fred was pretty pumped. They said Akron is recruiting pretty much against Big East teams for everyone right now. 4. Ted Ginn and JD are still pretty tight. Ted will hopefully be on the show next month. The RB from Glenville that went to EMU was 3rd or 4th on the Zips list. I don't see the pipeline in trouble at all. 5. They did not mention any names on the show but mentioned the heavy recruiting in West PA that we all know about. Quote

They should run promo's for it during Zips games. Another "show" I came across after the Miami game was on 88.1 WZIP. There were some students on the air discussing a bunch of stuff. They spent a decent amount of time discussing Zips football. I don't know if that was a one-time deal, or if they do it regularly? It was interesting to listen to regardless. Quote
