  1. I and my friends were at the BW3 on Exchange with so many layers of winter attire on we almost passed out from heat exhaustion. We piled out and started walking to the “Lee Jackson” field and noticed lights not on! Found out the match was postponed, moved to Chicago (yes it was vs Northwestern). And in Chicago, the wind was blowing off Lake Michigan at 30mph and rain/sleet sideways. I believe that was the impetus for the new stadium and the special turf developed for Akron climate.
  2. So stats show emil out last 16 minutes, ashton out since 56’, victor out last 20 minutes, are these guys resting or out?
  3. I don’t think so. If we lost the QF maybe. A loss to G-town won’t keep us out. Maybe no top seeds maybe no home match, but no shut out of college cup
  4. I agree that #2 is my consensus. It seemed like it took about the IU-Indy match to start to see cohesiveness, but up until then the staff played a LOT of players, giving them pitch time and also seeing what they had. Once Jared settled into a tight rotation (if there even was a rotation!) play improved as players were more familiar with each other, each other's styles and personalities, etc. Just my 2 cents worth...
  5. "The Boys played hard!" was his standard response first thing out of the box at press conferences. I used to enjoy talking to him at Green Hills Golf Course in Brimfield where he "worked" as a starter after The U. What stories! He would always stop where I was at basketball or football games and say Hi and kibbitz for a time. Great Guy.
  6. How many here remember when we had our last NCAA tourney run and the U had a couple of nice watch parties at the JAR, with cash bar and all? How nice would it be to do again for semi-final match Thursday night? Great for students, fans, casual fans.
  7. Then my vote is Marcus Jennings, current CFO of the Athletic Department. He seems to have been the "adult in the room" these past few years.
  8. Bu doesn't this kind of give the coaching staffs a "free pass" card for at least another season, as the new AD gets to know their strengths and weaknesses? Maybe women's soccer, volleyball, baseball coaches are breathing a sigh of relief for the foreseeable future, even Joe?
