So far, the NCAA’s Name, Image, Likeness policy and the transfer portal aren’t doing Kent State University football any favors.
In 2022, the Golden Flashes posted a record of 5-7 overall and 4-4 in the Mid-American Conference in then-coach Sean Lewis’ fifth and final season at Kent State. Three of those seven losses came at Pac-12 power Washington, at No. 7 Oklahoma and at No. 1 Georgia, which was on its way to its second straight national championship. So the Flashes were actually 5-4 in games where they stood a fighting chance of winning.
