Get real, that's not going to EVER happen...at least not with Akron and Buffalo

Actually Akron seems realistic to me, plus they’ve got one of the best soccer teams in the country to fall back on.
Penguin Nick:
Akron recently built a 30,000 seat state of the art football stadium, therefore, they aren't dropping football.

There are 2 other stadiums in that area that need replaced and they both draw more fans on a Friday night, than Akron draws on their best Saturday. Look at Butler. The coach said that he could not get anyone to come and play in Indianapolis. Here he was beating any team they could play. He said the final straw was when Ball Sate refused to play a game there. So they knew they had to make a commitment and take advantage of those incredible NCCA Tourney runs.

Akron will not drop football. No way they'd be stuck with InfoCision as it's not even 15 years old. Heck, the rubber bowl is still standing which the city just bought I think.
