Don't worry. Milwee's had a full week to construct a game plan which puts Ramart in the best position to be successful. Fearless Forecast: We score an offensive TD this week.

All depends on which view you prefer

congrats to Marcel

here is a statement....that makes my very proud of akron zips soccer When postseason play begins, the Zips will join an elite group of just four Division I programs that have qualified for the NCAA Championships in each of the past 12 seasons. Only Indiana, Maryland, and Virginia can share that claim.

Zips open as a seven point favorite.

It's under technical support.

I think GT has "virtually forgotten" how to be a reporter.

I concur.

I think the cupboard was so bare that we've gotten to a point that our starters can hang with anyone in the MAC and then some, but no depth. The way recruiting is trending, that is the next step. I'm certainly not thrilled with the way the season has gone, but we went to the MACCG last year for the 2nd time ever.. Maybe I'm jaded by how bad we sucked for so long, but I don't want to say TB needs to go. I'd like to see some changes on the offensive side of the coaching staff.

God, I luv ya Man....this says it all. You are right, why not F-Ball???

TB is 34-49 at Akron and 23-31 in the MAC during his tenure (27-49 against DI opponents). He has had one winning season in seven and is most likely going to miss being bowl eligible this season. I do not think that expecting more than a .409 winning percentage is unreasonable (.355 against DI opponents). Nobody expects us to be 12-0 or to crash the playoffs, we just want a team that does not get blown out by 4-6 Miami on our own field. Again, I never said fire him, but they have to make some changes to his staff and/or his recruiting procedures. We cannot compete with average MAC teams and that is a problem. If TB comes back next year with the current roster and staff what do expect the team to be? Another 5-7 season?

Lee Adams said: Nobody is blaming'every single loss on coaching'. What objective fans are doing is looking at patterns over the past 7 seasons. Just because some think all fans are idiots doesn't mean its true. Some fans can actually watch ballgames and understand what is and is not happening. This is not personal for most folks. But after 7 seasons this program should not be losing its first two conference games. It should not be getting waxed by the NIU's MU's,UB's and EMU's. The offense should not be as pathetic as it has been. That is seen most markedly in the poor O-line play and lack of a running game. This is finally about being consistently competitive with the best programs in the MAC. Clearly this program is not. Kreed and Lee, will you two stop being so logical! Why don't we just lower our aspirations/expectations and then our FB coaches will look like geniuses. They then will meet the challenge of winning 4-5 games a year. Please don't mention the performance of PJ Fleck at WMU, Campbell and Crandle at Toledo, Dino Babers at BG, Lance Liepold at UB or any host of NIU coaches. That's discrimination to expect Akron with the best MAC facilities, a hotbed for recruiting and an upper level MAC football budget to produce teams like those coaches did. That's expecting too much. I say we give the staff cupcakes after every game and medals to take home. Meanwhile let's expect excellence out of MSoccer, M & W Track and Field, M BBall, W Swimming, W Tennis and Rifle. They want to compete w/o excuses.

Who do you blame it on? The refs? The coaches are the ones who recruit the players. The coaches are the ones responsible for developing the players. The coaches are the ones who make the game plans. The coaches are the ones who call the plays. This isn't the NFL where coaches have to coach the roster their GM provides them. Bowden and Milwee hand picked every player they have on the offensive side of the ball. Edit: Nobody here is asking for Akron to be Ohio State or Michigan. We expect to be able to compete against the top echelon teams of the MAC, which we haven't been able to do and we're in year 7. Any other FBS school would fire a coach that has only had 1 winning season in 7 years, yet somehow the fans asking for change are the irrational ones? I'm done with discussion. Enjoy your 9AM tee time with Bowden & Milwee because clearly you guys must be best buddies to not see some sort of change is needed.

Rest in Peace, Steve Parker https://gozips.com/news/2018/11/13/akron-mens-soccer-mourns-the-passing-of-steve-parker.aspx
