Terry Pluto talks about Akron soccer on WCan't State

quote from the article:

"I think once in a while, Akron fans need to say, 'We need to be very grateful for what we have here.'" And, most of the games are played here. "Their average attendance this year is over 2,100. I just think it's something that's going on right under our nose here. Big time college soccer right here in Akron." (could just as easily be a quote from ZipME87 or Fknbuflobo )

Did he mention hey averaged 3600 fans a few years go?

I am just glad that he is on the radio giving the zips soccer team some good publicity. He is obviously not a super college soccer expert with his comments about all of the players wanting to get a degree.

The diehard fans know that Perry Kitchen and Dillon Serna were one and dones and that Akron has been hurt badly by players leaving early.

Terry Pluto wrote several excellent articles in the 2009-2012 time frame about the team. Hopefully, he will write something in the Plain Dealer over the next few days. If his appearance on the radio show gets 100 to 200 more fans to attend the SMU game, every little bit of home field advantage will help this team of hard working, talented young men in their path for that coveted 2nd star.

Good for Terry. UA is one of the hands that feeds him so I'm sure he really is grateful.
