@CurryHicksSage One would think the cuts wouldn’t be necessary if the role that sports play is as significant as some think.

@Jimmycrack91 @TheHerdBros Akron lost players to Iowa State, Ok State, Pitt, Utah, Texas Tech, WKU, UCF, Kansas State, Toledo, Texas, and Auburn (among others) this cycle. Hard to build a program when all your players get poached. Though the move feels odd considering the spring transfer portal is gone

@KaizenUSA76 Who is the 1? Simmons in Ohio?

@Slicknickshady @TheFieldOf68 The NBA would be a step up from where college athletics is right now. Draft, salary cap, trades, contracts…sign me up!

Akron is expected to elevate associate head coach Dustin Ford, source told @TheFieldOf68.

Ford has been a huge part of the Zips success.

Love this move by AD Andrew Goodrich.

I’m sick

[Zips Zone @ZipsZone]

@KcSmurthwaite Doesn’t seem too obvious to me. I’d expect Akron to step up and meet the numbers that matter.

[Zips Zone @ZipsZone]

If Groce is gone and Ford isn’t the replacement, give me Nolan Smith from Tennessee State.
