Also from GT's article: Looking at the practice field, itβs difficult to not notice 6-foot-6 quarterback D.J. Irons, junior college transfer from Iowa Central Community College. His presence along with Kato Nelson, who returns after recovering from a shoulder injury and is 100 percent for the first time since 2019, and last year's starter Zach Gibson give UA a quarterback room with unique potential.

Bowling Green - the MAC season begins
Blue & Gold replied to TennZip's topic in Akron Zips NCAA Championship Soccer
Thatβs pretty great getting a MAC Player of the Week AND a player on TDSβs National Team of the Week... from different players. πππͺ -
I hope. I absolutely HATE our OOC schedule this year. Absolutely ridiculous facing both Ohio State and Auburn when our program is where it is right now. One perennial Top 3 team and another perennial Top 10. Really?!?! This could be laughable and devastating. Iβm rather pissed.

Policy on Fans
Blue & Gold replied to malonepioneer12's topic in Akron Zips NCAA Championship Soccer
Ditto with baseball. I watched our first baseball game online Saturday and it sounded like there were quite a few fans in the stands. I'm gonna try to find my way over there for our Wednesday evening ballgame & see what the situation is. -
We hit a grand slam in the first game πͺπͺ

Brief article on QB Cam Hergott -
The youth on this team is great and no one loses a year of eligibility πͺπͺ Hopefully Dawson will be back. She's still our best player and the best on the team at driving the ball for her own shot.

π― She led the team yesterday with a career-high 25! πͺπͺ

In my lineup I forgot Wynn. Oops. Yeah, Iβd put him in Marshallβs spot.

Are you referring to this starting lineup?

AD Larry Williams will NOT seek Extension
Blue & Gold replied to LoyalZIP's topic in General UA & Campus Discussion
Agreed. If the RubberDucks can average >5,000 fans per game for ~70 home games per year, there is no reason we shouldn't be averaging 10k-15k for 6 home games per season. But the product has to be decent. (Of course the 300 fans we get at our November Tuesday night games will certainly drive down any average.) -
LCJ.... Clarke Trimble.... Tribble Dawson... Dailey Ali... Marshall Freeman... Reece
-
Oh ye of little faith. π
-
I think Dawson should start. (In case anyone on here didnβt already know. Lol)
-
GT, is that you?

Marshall - first home game March 2nd

Good call! -
Class of '22 Verbal Commits
Blue & Gold replied to Blue & Gold's topic in Akron Zips Football Recruiting
Van is one of the top OL in NEO going into his senior season. Stow actually has 2 of the top OL in NEO, the other being Mason Mennell. Both 6'4" - 6'5" and ~ 300. Stow is going to be tough. -
ABJ game story "UA trailed at 39-25 at halftime, the sixth consecutive game in which the Zips have been outscored in the first half."

I still think Dawson should start. He's a dog who can shoot and drive to the basket. He's 6'5" & built like a bull. I agree with Groce bringing Dailey off the bench. But I just don't think Tribble should be starting over Dawson. Tribble starting gives us a starting PG who is 5'8", and two wings, Trimble at 6'2", and Tribble at 6'1". 5'8", 6'1" and 6'2" is pretty small. Especially considering the only offense Tribble brings to the table is driving to the basket. Whoever is guarding Tribble knows he can sag way off him. Anyway, the point of my post is not to bash on Tribble. I love his hustle, athleticism, and defense. I'm glad he's a Zip. But I think Dawson should be the starter. Now, if only the coaching staff would get wise & listen to me. Lol.

I agree. LCJ's got to get more of an LBJ mindset. During the first quarter of games LeBron often passes up open looks to get his teammates the ball, purposefully trying to get his teammates going & into the flow of the game. It's a team game.

I really like BG's Matheny (sp?). He's going to be a load to handle for the foreseeable future. We recruited him.
