I have little doubt he'll be better than 2-22 over the next two seasons, and I doubt we'll lose 11 games by 30+ pts in that time frame either. :pity:
Honestly, we can't go anywhere but up. Hopefully Bowden can get the play on the field to be representative of the school and facilities. A couple more seasons of bowl qualification would be nice.

That is a great pickup for Akron, N Alabama was sort of the go to place for Div I guys who ran into problems at their programs and needed to play.
N Alabama was also a go to spot for CFL scouts. -
Even better, I just saw Chuck freakin' Amato was hired as the DC.
Hopefully the past few seasons of giving up 40+ pts seemingly routinely will be over. -
Akron's biggest problem on D

^^^^^^Worst DC ever....there's a reason Wisconsin was more than happy to let this fool come to Nebraska.....he flat out blows as a DC -
Well thankfully he's not there anymore.

I actually feel bad for the guy....his kid was diagnosed with leukemia when he was the DC at Minnesota, and quickly got his bag cut as a part of Tim Brewster's staff. And ever since his stint in Lincoln he hasn't had anything go his way..
