Just an Idea from Akron

5 days ago, the Akron Zips football program released one of the most innovative ideas in college sports.

All season ticket holders would be entered into a raffle to be the “Offensive Coordinator of the game”

This meant for $90, you could help the Zips script the first drive of their opening game against Robert Morris.

The promotion went mega viral.

Pat McAfee, Jon Gruden, and pretty much every media member in College Football commented on the promotion.

I said that this was one of the most innovative ideas in college sports because it isn’t actually new.

6 months ago, we had this idea lined up with a school in Pennsylvania for college hoops.

In today’s newsletter, I’ll share the best idea that never happened and why college athletics programs keep getting it so wrong.
