Today I want to highlight the FlashFAST Era at Kent State, one of the best and most underrated offenses in Modern College Football History Between 2018 and 2022, Kent State played in 55 games and scored 30 points in 28 of them, including 9/14 games in 2021 This also included 13 games at 40 , 8 games at 50 , and 5 at 60 Kent State set the PPG record for the CFP era as well, averaging 49.8 PPG in 2020 A record of 24-31 over that 55 game stretch, including ten losses by a single score, means that this era won’t get the appreciation it deserves, but it is still spectacular for what that offense accomplished Over this span they did go 9-1 vs their rivals, have ten players go pro, go on a 12 game home win streak, and have the largest 4th quarter comeback in FBS history

There's a reason we called that era "FlashFast"

After a great showcase today, I’m blessed to receive another Division 1 offer from Kent State University! Huge thank you to @CoachCPatt and @CoachBucar and the @KentStFootball staff!

#KentGRIT not #FlashFAST We aren’t associating Burns with one of the best eras in kent state football history

Here’s a short list as to why Kenni Burns was fired • 1-23 • Gambling on games (rumored) • Misuse of a university purchasing card • Got sued by a local bank for lack of payment • Took $100k in loans from a local booster #FlashFast #KentState

Blessed to be at @KentStFootball spring practice today ⚡️ #AGTG #FlashFast @BillTeerlinck @Kenny_K9mccall @Jacksonville8 @WNWarriorsFB @AllenTrieu @Bryan_Ault

Who said fake I love the flashes #flashfast

While 2012 was long before my time, I got to experience 3 out of the 5 years of the FlashFast era. Which is arguably the best stretch of football in school history. I then sat through and watched all 24 games of the Kent Grit era. We are now in the HAB1TS era. I have been a fan through the highs, lows, and everything in-between. I went to, marched at, and earned a degree from the school I root for. I got to be more connected to my team than 99% of P4 college fans ever will be. I absolutely HATE the narrative that the G5 is "lesser" and not important. It changed my life for the better, and we didn't need millions of dollars to get there. L

Crum and @quez__15 reunited in some good ol fashion #FlashFast
