If this is true, TW should be shown the door. There should be weekly evaluations of performance. If true, this shows me that TW can make the easy (stupid) decision of suspending a coach who had a MINOR violation, but he can't make the big decisions. If true, he can make the easy decision of hiring a friend, but can't make the hard decision to fire a friend; or even worse, to question the decision making of a friend. He can make the easy decision to cancel a golf outing, but...I have no idea where I'm going with this one....something to do with things that don't really matter.....anyhow....Akron football may be dead and buried by then? It might be dead already and the rotting corpse is stinking up the joint. I'm serious. We don't even compete well against MAC schools. 20 points in a college football game is unacceptable. At the pace we are going, the Zips will score 198 points this season. More than last year, but less than 20 per game. They give fans nothing to cheer about. When the most fun people have is at the tailgate, there is a huge problem with the program. The real problem is there isn't anyone around to smell the rotting corpse...How many people were at the game to smell it?reported attendance this year is up 25% over last year.

Wow. Two of the top 3 ranked teams in the country couldn't draw more than that in the hot-for-soccer ACC? Not good.I think the timing of this game was the problem. I watched the 2nd half on ESPNU because I didn't realize it started so early, at 5 pm I think. I thought it would be a 7 pm start. Ben Speas had a number of shots (name mentioned a lot by the announcers), but did not score.Ben Speas and McKalley Tulloch are not Zips because they would not conform to coach Porter's style. He mentioned this at his interview today.Where/when is said interview available?Did he talk about his new gig at all? Any more details from this conference would be appreciated. I have little doubt that it was the most exciting thing that happened in Zips athletics today. I wish I could have gone but I'm in Cincitucky visiting my friend this weekend.try this first http://www.box.net/shared/slnxlk0ev7velsvscn9j

How'd he feel about the FG attempt, down by 20 in the 4th qtr? Love cutting the margin from 20 to 17 with 8 minutes left. Nice job Rob. Way to quit. FU and your process.wasn't able to listen to the 4th, went to Boo at the Zoo instead. I'm going to replay the ESPN3 telecast to see what the announcers were saying just for the heck of it. Is there still anyone in the Znation that doesn't believe Ianello is not cut out for the head coaching job?

Frenchy seems to be losing his patience with Ianello. He wasn't happy about the 3rd and 1 pass and then the 4th and 1 punt in the 3rd.

We now have a goalkeeper in the MLS!!!! http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2011...ird-mls-signing

nice find!!A lot of questions are answered in this.

the coach throws out an insult towards Can't, "Play pretty soccer all year and then Come to a field like this that is anything but that, to be honest it's kind of a disgrace to play division 1 soccer on this field." He gets a lot of points for that comment,

no matter what happens, I'm staying optimistic just for the fun of it. Zips win and score 100 points!! We'll never lose a game again.

is this ever used by the nation? http://zipsnation.org/forums//index.php?autocom=chatsigma

GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 4-2

is anyone using the Live Chat thing? Installing this oracle thing to get it working.

MAC Soccer seems to be improving, Northern Illinois gave us a tough game and you have to admit Buffalo still has a chance to spoil my night. Bowling Green isn't going to be an easy win. What happened to the easy MAC schedule?

GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

with Buffalo tasting the net twice, expect more attack

whew, this is turning out to be a shootout

anyone else feeling very nervous about this game? what is going on?

there's that scoreboard again

thought they'd take that goal away, 1-1. Love the background noise from the Akron fans

it looks like we're playing more direct in this game

sloppy sloppy passes

the feed is just showing the scoreboard?

if Porter does well in the Olympics, he could get contracts over €1,000,000 a year thrown at him. Considering his devotion to his family, I don't think he'll take a European job. I shouldn't have mentioned any worries about losing him, this is a spectacular thing for our University and there's no need for negativity.

Ianello is not a stubborn man and does what is necessary on the field to win games, even if it requires changing the game plan during a game. We'll go undefeated next year.

very optimistic about the the US's chances in the Olympics. If he does a great job, I wouldn't be surprised if he gets hired away by a club with money.
