Funny tweet from an Akron fan:
"This would not have happened under President Tressel (or Mayor Zac Jackson)"

I wonder how this affects Akron's relationship with the MAC. I believe they will be the only MAC school w/o a baseball program.

If that is the case, then the answer is "no". The MAC will still qualify for the NCAA post-season. With the success of Kent, baseball in the MAC has become very expensive. I see several other teams dropping baseball as well.

Problem is, Akron spent all that money to build that football stadium because the rubber bowl was falling apart, and now they are one of the worst D-1 football programs in the nation lol. That program makes no revenue whatsoever and that stadium never hosts any other events besides football games. It's a shame.
