The Zips are on their way to the top. MSU was no slouch and we beat them at their place. Jared has done a remarkable job in cleaning house of his cancers and bringing in new talent that embraces the Akron soccer culture. Jared is also not given the credit for the exceptional job he does as a field coach. He and Mitchell and Groce and Perisse and Engle only serve to prove my point, which is the right head coach is the prime factor in winning. Go soccer Zips!

Embick may forever live in the shadows of Porter, and that would be an absolute travesty. With less talent, Embick has arguably accomplished more (aside from winning it all) than Porter. That's not to discredit Porter or pit the two against each other, but more of an appreciation for the greatness that has been at the helm of this program for nearly 2 decades.

I watched the presser and I came away with no excitement for this team. I don't need promises, but jeez give me something to believe in, not 13 minutes of coach-speak. My biggest disappointment is that I am not seeing any drive to win from the head coach. I believe that until we fill the cupboard with talent we need to see passion for building a winning program. I have met Arth. He is one helluva guy. But I'm still looking for proof he can deliver a winning program.

Just a little end of a long day rant! LOL.

Hallelujah! Holy crap! Where's the Tylenol?

Akron scores the game winner at the 89:35 mark for a 2-1 victory!
