  1. Past hour
  2. Howie's slapped though
  3. It has been a long time since I have watched a UA game without Malik, Dyson, or WKWK. Big shoes to fill for sure
  4. Today
  5. I've always been impressed with how publicly he supports the other Akron athletic programs. Agreed that the injury bug has plagued his tenure here; hoping that changes so we can see what type of program he can really build.
  6. Roster has been updated. A few notes: freshman Brown-Demery is listed as a DL instead of an OL—we’ll see if that sticks over the coming years. Also, defensive backs Proby and Greenwood are no longer listed on the roster. Greenwood played significant snaps for us last year and I thought he was in line to start at nickel this coming season.
  7. This is awesome. When I was at UA they usually parked their food truck in the commons near Zook. It was really the only time I got to eat it. These college kids now have Chipotle, Chick-fil-a, Swensons and Arby's on campus?! We had Robs, Subway and the world's worst B-dubs.
  8. I've played a round with Ryan. He can really crush it off the tee. He grew up playing country club golf. He is a really good guy and a good coach. If he ever gets a break on the injury situation from his first 2 years I expect a MAC championship run.
  9. Roster on gozips.com updated minus the yet to be announced fall recruiting class. Currently 21 players listed so there should be 7 new players announced for the fall. Players not on roster from 2024: Josh Hardin - transfer to Pitt Simon Guardiero - ? Ryan Kopay - transfer to FDU Max Barboto - ? Nicolas Beier -? Kamden Held - transfer to Green Bay Daniel Firek - transfer to Lipscomb Aaron Meono - transfer to Duquesne Emil Jaaskelainen - graduate Malik Henry - graduate Dyson Clapier - graduate Wan Kuzri Wan Kamal - graduate Victor Gaulmin - graduate Beto Yadrich - graduate Jonas Buechte - graduate Fifteen players return from 2024: McCarty Budler Reilly Filsinger Ferguson Borneo Buebendorf Aginbiade Bartels - injured Dobrijevic Dreas Roman ORourke Kamdem Kaminski 2024 Spring Recruits: Royer Pedro Morck Sullivan Kossehasse Dodig Lots of players with opportunities to step up. Lots of new faces. Challenging schedule. Let’s go Zips!
  10. It's becoming harder to not believe that Akron's days as a soccer powerhouse are limited, given the increasing importance of money in college athletic success and Akron's obvious lack of resources.
  11. All of us fans knew that the Zips graduated 7 starters from last year's team. With Josh Hardin transferring, the zips will now have 8 new starters. (Mitch Budler, Ashton Kamdem and Matt Dreas are the 3 returning starters) Like all fans, I anxiously await the zips news release that will tell us about incoming fall 2025 transfers and about any new international freshmen joining the program.
  12. I believe they are walk-ons.
  13. Yesterday
  14. What happened? Isn't the portal closed?
  15. Noticed a couple of new freshman on the roster: WR Troy Hazuda DL Omari Bivens
  16. This is worthwhile read. Thanks for posting. I would have some questions then comment. First, why would the Big Ten and SEC share their revenue? They could create a super conference on steroids. At this point they don't need the ACC or Big 12. Second, wouldn't it be better if schools outside of the P4 engage in problem solving that doesn't focus on money as the primary driver of the problem? NonP4 schools have been chasing money for decades. It isn't working. I know we need money, but the pursuit of it while excluding everything else has been a fools errand. I've been saying it for years. NonP4 schools need to focus on making their athletic departments benefit the athletes students alumni fans and the general community around their schools. If they can do this, they could garner more public support for the athletic departments the taxpayers are basically supporting. Do we really need Tuesday night football so bad that we forego any benefit to the greater society that should benefit from public universities? If we do, the failure is truly complete. There were a couple of paragraphs in the article where the man from Texas Tech looks back on his time in college. Those paragraphs really stood out to me. His experience was one that many experience and I think is badly missing today. College athletics used to be a means to an end. It was where young adults went to college to matriculate through a university, meet some lifelong friends, create a book of memories to share at reunions, maybe meet a spouse, get a degree and move into young adulthood as a productive citizen. Now, it's the end and a job. It's all so gross now.
  17. This is an absolutely gigantic loss for Zips men's soccer. Josh Hardin was so good for the zips in fall 2024. Pitt Panthers have added a very good player. https://www.instagram.com/p/DMIYZkJsJ8h/
  18. Fun fact: Ryan Gensler and his team with Jason Lloyd won the Austin Carr Golf Outing yesterday. The opening conversation on the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show has a picture and talks about the day. According to Jason Lloyd, Ryan is a heck of a golfer.
  19. Typical solution article on problems facing college sports i.e. fixit for the P4 and no mention of the G5 whatsoever.
  20. Celtics had the 54th pick...4 after the Pacers in last year's second round. I have to believe they'd have taken Enrique with that pick had he been available. Instead they picked Antwon Watson from Gonzaga...a slightly thicker, slower version of Enrique. They cut Watson half way through last season.
  21. Some great pics on Instagram of the team working with the disabled kids at the Rotary Camp.
  22. I feel like its a missed opportunity to not have a real swens on campus like on the plot of land between spicer, goodkirk, and exchange. I know there's one a few exits up route 8 but still.
  23. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2025/07/08/cody-campbell-college-sports-texas-tech-donald-trump/84408951007/
  24. They have been close friends for years.
  25. Saw John Groce sitting alongside Brad Stevens at the Celtics Heat summer league game tonight.
  26. Love it!
  27. Last week
  28. Having a little fun with the LLM today. Why it picked this, have no idea. I laughed though.
