Was wondering the same. I know Akins has been a fixture to our program and is well respected, but it's about time our players start looking like elite athletes. For the last few years it seems we always look scrawny compared to our competition.

So is this official news?

Couldn't tell if you think it's going to happen or has happened. I do agree it's time for someone new.

He's been here 34 years...........

there comes a point where it doesn't make any sense to keep contributing to the retirement system. He can land himself a hefty raise working out side the system for a few years. So it's probably mutual. Howland wants his own guy and Akins knows now is the time to move on.

I think he got retired from football

several years ago.

Stan's did not seem into lifting much for round ball.

Everybody must retire eventually.
