Randy Greenwood committed to Akron last week, then he broke his leg.
The injury will cost the Lake Catholic running back his senior season. He expects Akron to honor its scholarship offer.
Greenwood runs (ran) a 4.54 in the 40-yard dash, according to Rivals.com. He also has interest in Cincinnati, Iowa, Northwestern, Penn State and Pittsburgh. His high school coach said colleges should look into using him as a receiver or defensive back.
- Notes…
J.D. Brookhart gave a good synopsis of the first two weeks of camp in a GoZips.com article. Basically, he gave thumbs up to the entire offense. He thinks there are playmakers on defense, but the unit needs to get healthy before he can truly evaluate it.
It pains me greatly to announce that my softball team had to dispatch the squad captained by ZipsNation.org's Captain Kangaroo, en route to our first league championship. If you're an Akron fan who doesn't read ZipsNation, you're a loser. It's true.
Forgive me for some inconsistency in blogging the next couple weeks. School is starting, and I'm involved in some semi-hectic activities. I will try to get out to camp once again for another video update with Dan Kadar. We both appreciate your positive feedback.

Congratulations on the championship, Mike! You guys came out focused, and we were flat as my 2nd grade girlfriend.
Against my better judgment, we're going to play in the fall. Nothing better than a Sunday morning re-hashing of the Saturday Zips game and some softball to go along with it.
