I'm going to get to my seats at the Info early a couple of years from now (maybe even mid-year next year?) so I can listen intently for the bells and sirens each time a former Zips fan/season ticket holder walks through one of the gates.LOVE the passion but I wish some on the board would give Wistrcil (3 months on the job) and now Ianello (... not even here yet) a little more (or a lot) benefit of the doubt.Welcome to Akron, Rob and Family! GO ZIPS!!!

It is time ... UNC ... ACC #2 ...

Just for comparison ... only 1522 in Winston-Salem, NC tonight to see Wake beat UCLA 2-0. 4-2-5-4 in Akron - OUTSTANDING!

Wake Forest advances to the Final Four for the fourth straight year, 2-0.

Still 2-0 Wake with around 4 minutes to go.Attendance for the UCLA/Wake match was ... 1522 ... vs. 4254 (or so) in Akron.

A thorough harass-kicking indeed! Shame on UA if they adopt a final soccer stadium plan that does NOT include harassment zones on BOTH ends of the field.

Can we get an emoticon for this?

The Akron at Texas A&M game Friday night (8PM ET) is being broadcast on Fox Sports Southwest for any of you who have access to it. I just called The Tap House and was told that Randy is going to order access to FS SW for a day if any of you are looking for a place to go watch the game.

A couple of unofficial '2010 Syracuse football schedule' sites show the game in Akron being played 9/18.

I too saw Wistrcil talking to the UAPB coaching staff as they exited the floor in what appeared to be an apologetic, assuring manner. Tom then seemed to head towards the UA locker room. Oh to be a fly on the wall in there!

I agree with the last couple of posts.I KNOW a million dollars would immediately benefit the new soccer stadium project and the soccer program itself. I DON'T know how quickly that same million will help us become bowl-eligible and beyond in football. I like JD personally but agree with most of you that it is probably time for a change. I'm not at all sure buying JD out of the last year of his contract is the best we can do with the kind of money it's going to take to do that and put the new coach and staff in place.

7 adult + 1 youth here. Let me know if any of you are interested.

I've got us pegged at about 4-0. GO ZIPS!!!

... and Can't got a good beat-down at Temple, 47-13. Ah yes, a basketball W and a Can't L in anything DO feel good!

Disappointing start to our double-header ... and now it looks like the Dayton/Nova game is going to run long on ESPNU ... but probably by not much more than a BG touchdown and field goal.

I like our seeding, especially the potential match-up against northwestern. DON'T like the 4PM start on Sunday. No way we can miss Thanksgiving Sunday at the in-laws (they hold it the Sunday before so we can spend a full day of Thanksgiving on each side of the family). Why couldn't WE get a 1PM start time like Tosu did?!? "Kyle" won't be able to attend the match but he's already plotting to have a handful of Rowdies kidnap him Sunday morning and return him safely sometime later that evening! Anybody know whether ZipsZone will have a live video/audio feed of the match?

Assuming it will happen eventually, I hate it when flush-with-cash, BCS-level SOBs go trolling ...

Ah yes ... Amerika the Beautiful.

I just sent an email to Wistrcill's admin, Hunter, and Dambrot's admin asking whether the FSN Ohio feed could be piped to the JAR scoreboard screens at 3:30. FSN Ohio picked up the Akron/Buffalo football game. Would be pretty cool to head down to the JAR early to watch the game there for a couple of hours before the meet-and-greet starts. It would already add to a full day of UA sports on campus ...3:30-6:30 Football (FSN Ohio) on the JAR scoreboard screens5:30-7:00 Basketball meet-and-greet in the JAR7:00-9:00 Volleyball in the JAR7:30-9:30 Soccer on Lee Jackson FieldMy family and I wouldn't have to decide between watching the last hour of the football game or heading to the meet-and-greet. I'm assuming there would still be a choice to be made 2 hours into the football game!

HORRENDOUS! Time to call a meeting in the smoky back room deep within the confines of NCAA headquarters and DO something about this! They can't let great coaching and talent rule the day!
