I think that he will do well in coaching.

I worry about playing Western Michigan on the road 4 days after traveling to play a very good Syracuse team I worry about playing Bowling Green 4 days after playing current #1 Notre Dame this team right now is very weak in the midfield....Midfielders do a ton of running and they will get tired and this will lead to bad passes schedule is not good for this team

http://unitedsoccercoaches.org/web/Rankings/College_Rankings/NCAA_DI_MEN/web/Rankings/NCAA/DI_MEN.aspx zips did not receive a vote from the soccer coaches... U Mass Lowell....very low in the rankings.... Zips need to have a huge October and play a great game on Sept. 27...as Notre Dame is #1 ; Mich. State #6 ; Syracuse #11 and Western Michigan #12

U Mass Lowell #21 in this poll. future opponent Michigan State is #1 in this poll(hard for me to believe that the big ten has the 3 best teams in the country) zips not even considered...which is probably appropriate....after Saturday night's poor game https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/college-soccer-national-rankings/men

http://www.phillysoccerpage.net/2017/09/16/match-report-bethlehem-steel-2-2-louisville-city/ Adam Najem and Derrick Jones both impressed in midfield. While the Union slog through another average season, Najem and Jones look like they’ll have long-term roles to play with the first team sooner rather than later.

http://www.gozips.com/schedule.aspx?path=msoc Zips schedule does not show live video??? preview article has a link to live video...but it just takes you to the zips soccer schedule(with no link for video)

exactly....you said you were not impressed by Denver.....and they lost last weekend to cal irvine and cal northridge washington lost on sunday to mercer (GA) Jared always puts together a great schedule....but sometimes....the opponents have down years (Georgetown was an example from last year's schedule)

We will know a lot more about BUGS....after the next 10 days they play at Michigan State wed. night they play the fighting irish in south bend on the 19th and finally ,the falcons play the suckeyes in Columbus on the 22nd WMU....i will cut them some slack...they have a 3-2 win at Butler when Butler was #15 in the country they also have a 0-0 tie with Eastern Illinois

some of our MAC brethren....like to schedule cupcakes early...and start their season at 5-0

College soccer news...gives the zips some press http://www.collegesoccernews.com/index.php/articles/1081-things-are-beginning-to-heat-up-coast-to-coast-with-a-lot-of-momentum-building-contests-on-tap-this-weekend Akron (1-2-0) vs. UCSB ( 0-2-2) – Saturday - Akron opened the season with 1-0 season losses on the road to Utah Valley and Denver. However, they returned to the friendly confines of FirstEnergy Stadium and rebounded by defeating highly regarded Washington 2-0. The return of redshirt senior forward Sam Gainford to the lineup in the contest with Washington helped to add additional punch to an Akron attack that didn’t score during their first two losses. Gainford joins fellow senior Stuart Holthusen to give the Zips a potent combination up-top. Akron picks up some more frequent flyer points with a trip to Santa Barbara where they will tangle with a UCSB squad that has had problems of their own with an offense that has produced only one goal in four games. Nonetheless look for veteran Gaucho head coach Tim Vom Steeg to eventually sort it out and for the UCSB offense to get back in gear as the season progresses.

https://www.socceramerica.com/article/74786/soccer-america-mens-college-top-25.html Soccer America only dropped the zips from #19 to #20...after the zips went 1-1

My understanding....the NSCAA poll no longer exists. It has been replaced by the United Soccer coaches poll. Akron was #24 last week based on UA having played one game against Utah Valley.(they dropped from 16 in the initial ranking to 24) The poll comes out Tuesday around noon. However, it does not include games played on Monday of the same week. So, Akron's rating this week factors in their loss at Denver and the win over Washington. Ranking is also impacted by Utah Valley losing their 2nd game to Cal State Northridge and Denver losing their next game at home to Furman.

http://unitedsoccercoaches.org/web/Rankings/College_Rankings/NCAA_DI_MEN/web/Rankings/NCAA/DI_MEN.aspx West Virginia at #14 ? University of Akron at #34 ? Bowling Green at #36 ? time to go on a winning Streak, Zips !!!!.....Next home match..vs. U Mass Lowell.....should be a good one
