  1. All of the home games on the schedule on GoZips.com, have TV: ESPN+/ESPN3 listed. https://gozips.com/sports/mens-soccer/schedule
  2. Perhaps, but as in the past, I'm sure someone else will step up.

  4. Should have posted this earlier...
  5. Perry Kitchen returns to Ohio. Yes!!!
  6. No MAC Tourney. Regular season champ gets conference auto bid to NCAA Tourney per previous announcements, 2020 Men's College Cup Info (May 2021, Cary, NC)
  7. Congratulations to former Zips GK, Tor Saunders who spent 4 years with the Zips...
  8. Yes. I told my friends this via text last night. Van Horne should go with him. He has been the constant through all of this and past miserable hires.
  9. March 21 is after the end of regular season basketball. Perhaps a baseball game. Baseball and soccer cannot be played at the same time due to the proximity and possibility of foul balls entering the soccer stadium.

  11. With 2020 coming to an end (yay), i think it's time to start this thread. I posted this one elsewhere, but it belongs here... SIGNED | Columbus Crew SC acquires goalkeeper Evan Bush via trade with Vancouver Whitecaps FC Louisville City FC goalkeeper Ben Lundt moving on to MLS' FC Cincinnati, https://www.fccincinnati.com/post/2020/11/09/fc-cincinnati-announce-roster-decisions-2021-season Colorado Rapids sign winger Jonathan Lewis to new contract
  12. Interesting. I don't get the point of keeping them "under wraps" once letters of intent are signed. I would think there really isn't much secrecy within coaching circles. [Not applicable to Wyatt Webb's days ... but less so now with social media.] Seems like the student athletes should be introduced to the fans and vice versa...helps build the interest of the "casual" fan. I miss the old "meet the team events". I know that won't happen with COVID ongoing, but I'd love to see them come back when we get beyond this pandemic.
  13. I know UA has cut back significantly on communications staff, but it sure would be nice to get an official announcement of both the 2020 and 2021 Men's Soccer recruiting classes. WMU just identified their 2021 recruits via Twitter 2 days ago. Those who have committed to Zips Men's Soccer deserve to have their commitments in the spotlight and to be officially introduced to ZipsNation. Just another example of President Miller's unimpressive leadership. Communications and perception are always critical.
  14. Fun exchange between Bernie Kossr and Drew Carey (part owner of Sounders FC) ...
  15. From the perspective of former Zips Men’s Soccer great, Steve Zakuani... https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2020/12/13/mls-cup-2020-three-takeaways-and-little-more-steve-zakuani
  16. Not a Zip, but this former Hoosier deserves kudos and respect for his performance stepping in so well for Darlington...
  17. https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2020/12/13/mls-cup-player-ratings-perfect-night-lucas-zelarayan-caleb-porter-greg-seltzer These 3 stood out to me: ... Aidan Morris (7) — I won't lie. I figured Columbus would not be able to cover for the loss of Darlington Nagbe. Morris proved me wrong by doing many of the things Nagbe does. He scooped up loose balls, worked out of trouble and made the simple pass to get the team away. Nothing fancy, just good work. Kudos to the youngest player to ever start an MLS Cup. Lucas Zelarayan (10) — I'm just going to say it: This performance has to be on a very short list for the greatest individual whistle-to-whistle display in MLS Cup history. Zelarayan kept possession alive with some insane touches, he won a small bushel of free kicks and he even checked back to offer defensive help to Morris. And when it came to to make the big plays, Zelarayan did it with style, as if the game was moving much slower for him than it was for everyone else. Each of his finishes was a proper peach, and his assist was just as good. Take a bow, champion. ... Coach Caleb Porter (10) — I was thinking, hey man, don't be so generous with the perfect grades. But really, what could I ding Porter for? He played this game like chess, starting with the lineup calls to replace Nagbe and Pedro Santos. He pushed his lines of confrontation so high in the first half that Seattle couldn't build with their usual precision until they were down two goals. And just when it looked like the Sounders might gain rally momentum, he urged the team to get on the ball, which led to the coffin nail of the third goal. Sounds flawless to me. ...
  18. Not sure what’s funny about my post. Good people lost their jobs while these guys keep making stupid, wasteful decisions with regard Zips Football with little personal repercussions. UA is a mess.
