  1. Setting my 2012 schedule! See you, Bisbee and all, hopefully at Drake Stadium in September! It might be a few months still, before the full schedule is known -- unless we get someone to give us inside info. Wink, wink.
  2. Sounds like TeBow got some advice from Akron's soccer coach about how to expand the scholarship roster with academic riders. It can never hurt to have Ivy League type StuAth's hanging around your program. Can you say "Kofi Sarkodie"?
  3. You won't want to miss the opportunity. Try to arrive early for the parade! Awesome experience -- Oh, and one more thing: Don't miss out on the Mexican torta (sandwich) truck in front of the stadium. Comida fantistica.
  4. Congratulation Caleb Porter for having the #1 recruiting class of 2012. And congratulations to Alfred Koroma for being a member of the #1 preseason men's soccer team in 2012!
  5. Thank you Johnny. Grant Wahl is one of the best sportswriters around -- he captured the emotions of the circumstances very well. Let's just hope that Steve can indeed be 100% again! Go Sounders!
  6. Sounds like anakronism, if I ever heard one!
  7. Zach, you hit the nail on the head! He's being hired to whore for $$$, which is all he's either eligible, or capable, of doing at this time. Personally, I'll send my money to the school in Portage Cty. before I'll send a dollar to a school that hires this disgraced ex-Suckeye.
  8. The two receivers who Harding throws to most often are the Bridgeforth twins, Adam and Andrew. I can't find anything about where either are going (they're seniors), but the two accounted for over 2000 receiving yards!
  9. "I don't have six classes every day. I have two that I can focus on." So, Nicholas, how many classes are you NOT focusing on? (What's the minimum # of credits you can take in a semester and remain eligible?)
  10. Quote: Akron assistant head coach/defensive coordinator Chuck Amato is an Easton Area High School graduate. "Having Rusty Amato as our AD, Chuck’s nephew, certainly doesn’t hurt things," Melosky said. "Chuck has always been a true Lehigh Valley guy." Harding threw for a Nazareth record 3,749 yards and 32 touchdowns this season, while rushing for 199 yards and 13 scores. Also, the video states he's 6-4, 205... AND -- at 5:40 on the replay, watch how he completes the pass, then runs 20 yds downfield to throw a block for his receiver!
  11. On a similar note... Everytime I attempt to download the Akron baseball schedule on Gozips.com (well first three attempts, anyway), I get "Internet Explorer has stopped working", and it logs me off. Sorry -- I know it's not Zn.o related, but it's just as frustrating as being a fan of Zips football. Is there a dadgum app for GoZips.com?
  12. Andy Katz' First Impressions. So ours is only the sixth best game?
  13. YUP! HERE'S this years!
  14. What's your source?? THIS says K- You Know Who is the only MAC school getting TV! Whoops! Never mind...Last year's!
  15. Not much of a beer drinker myself -- I've gravitated to late harvest sauvignon blancs lately (lol), but the Liquor Collection where I shop has the biggest selection in town/the isle, and they give a 100 score to Samuel Smith's Imperial Stout. Also to North Coast Brewing (Arcata, CA) Old Rasputin Imperial Stout. Anyone ever try those?
  16. Say "It ain't so", Uncle Leo!
  17. Well, the January transfer Window is almost closed. And who has Arsene Wenger signed for his back line? Oh, sorry, wrong thread.
  18. Sure hope not -- they looked unbeatable on TV Sat vs N Iowa.
  19. Well, I guess I was off-target. I see "the Boss" Gale Agbossoumonde got his US debut late in this one, maybe I was thinking of him.
  20. Wanna know what shocks me on this list: Look at #21 Tarik Salkicic (to Tulsa!). How did he fall that far? Didn't this guy get a cap with Bradley's Senior National Team, right after the World Cup? Was it the same game that Bunbury got his first start, vs South Africa? I seem to remember Agudelo having a big game. Am I mis-remembering?
  21. He had a standout collegiate career at the University of Akron, where he was a two-time All-Mid-American Conference first-team selection and led the Zips to four straight NCAA tournament appearances. Well, I guess it's a good thing to start out coaching at the top, but I gotta say, I'm really disappointed his playing career is over. Wonder how big a part the seemingly minor at the time injury played. Cam did cause me to become a RSL fan -- and I still am.
  22. Nice looking field at Collier Stadium! Either Green has added a new agronomy program, or they have (drum roll, please) added a turf surface. Thanks to Dave & neighbors for kicking in the $$$.
  23. Didn't have time to read the whole thing, but yeah! -- Great piece of scouting and arguing his case. So, who's Rudy? A coach, where? edit: Got it:Rudy Roediger is the Athletic Communications Assistant covering men’s and women’s soccer at Notre Dame College and contributing writer for Notre Dame News, International Soccer Network, and Soccer Nation. You can follow him on twitter: @RuudSports
  24. Had to return to Page 1 to figure this out -- Wondering if this was restricted to Zips basketball fans (from thread location). 1982 alum. Not officially an athlete. Tried out at GK, told "we'll call you if we need you".
  25. I'm all for legalized (i.e., state regulated) gambling. As they say, gambling is a tax on stupidity. And the government needs the $$.
