Heather Lyke was being paid $1.5 million a year at Pittsburgh. She recently interviewed for the AD job at Northwestern. I don't believe that Heather Lyke is in the U of A desired price range. GVD (as he is known by Lane Kiffin) only knows the "Akron way". Akron needs someone that understands how successful schools work.

Congratulations to Emil and Mitch https://unitedsoccercoaches.org/ncaa-division-i-mens-all-america-teams-announced/

I voted once yesterday and once today. I am going to keep voting once a day until the voting ends. Emil truly had a very elite season and is very deserving of winning the Hermann trophy.

Personally, I think that the college cup.....should alternate beween east coast, west coast and middle of the country the powers that be......definitely like Cary, NC https://www.ncaa.com/news/ncaa/article/2024-12-08/ncaa-announces-extended-host-agreements-multiple-championships

Ohio State mauled the Wake Forest whiners 3-0

One NCAA semifinal is set for next week Denver will face Vermont Vermont upset number 2 seed Pittsburgh 2-0 number 3 seed Denver defeated UMass 3-0

Mr. Spelling was also an amazing high school soccer coach as well. His results at Medina were extraordinary. For many years, Mr. Spelling would bring 7 to 8 Meidna players to Akron home games and they would sit a row or two behind me. Coach Spelling would often point out good technique and great efforts to the young men from Medina during the Akron game.

@fknbuflobo you will enjoy the memories with this article Simon Spelling was told that he was not good enough to play for Duke ??? Simon was fantastic. https://gozips.com/sports/2018/4/25/team-of-distinction-1986-mens-soccer

top drawer soccer is reporting that Akron has signed a player for 2026 rated 3 stars by Top Drawer soccer M Callee Dalbon (Beadling SC/[Bethel Park pa-w]) committed to Akron. https://www.instagram.com/p/DCsTKpfNgrh/

Before today, Stanford was 10-1 in Jeremy Gunn's reign...when the match came down to PK's. Wake Forest just beat Clemson in OT I am rooting for a college cup...with 0 teams from the ACC. Rooting for Marshall to knock off SMU Rooting for Ohio State to beat the whiners from Wake Forest Rooting for San Diego or Vermont to upset #2 Pitt indifferent on UMass at Denver

The Hoosiers are headed home...as they lose 1-0 to #3 overall seed Denver. Good job by the Denver Pioneers !!!!

Wow, thank you for your input. That is a great report. Top Drawer soccer did a special article on Logan Lamaina on August 15, 2024 (shortly after he had announced his commitment to Akron) I have attached below the link to the article. We all know that Akron graduates 2 outstanding center backs (Jonas and Beto). We also know that Akron will return their 2 very good outside defensive backs (Ashton and Josh). Below the link, I will include some small tidbits from the article.....to help us better understand Logan's strengths as a soccer player. https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/article/?categoryId=26&articleId=53633&articleTitle=commitments:-looking-to-level-up A talented and versatile player, Logan LaMaina has excelled in every platform of youth soccer. Formerly a striker, LaMaina has since moved back, playing as an outside/wing back for his club side while also gaining experience in central defense at Pennridge High School in Southeastern PA. Along with competing for Sporting, he’s played for FC Bucks/Hex FC and PA Dominion FC. “A thing I really liked about the program that was a deciding factor was they play in a very high level conference which is something I've always wanted to do,” LaMaina said.

well done to 2 outstanding student athletes https://gozips.com/news/2024/11/26/pair-of-zips-garner-csc-academic-all-district-mens-soccer-honors

excellent article by Marla Ridenour https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/sports/college/basketball/2024/11/26/basketball-coach-keith-dambrot-and-wife-donna-dambrot-cancer-journey/76451722007/

I agree on dirty. Dyson also got elbowed in the face...and he had to leave due to concussion protocol

Thank you to the 7 seniors.......that left everything out on the pitch today and all year. Malik Henry Dyson Clapier Emil Jaaskelainen Beto Ydrach Jonas Buechte Wan Kuzri Wan Kamal Victor Gaulmin They were ironmen all year......They were rarely subbed off the zips that were on the team for several years.....all improved very much during their time at the U. Best wishes to all 7 starting seniors ...wherever the future takes you. Zips Nation loved to watch the 7 of you compete. THANK YOU

The Zips lost two first team Big East players to injuries during the game. I am disappointed but I am very proud of the zips.

with Dyson hurt, zips need to bring in a left footed play maker Maximus Barboto, please

IU is definitely dirty. Dyson took elbow to face

these announcers are so biased.... Ashton Kamdem had a tremendous first half... Malik was incredible.... would be nice for Malik to get a goal in the 2nd half.... Mitch has a right to get the ball in the box. Mitch got there first....Dangerous play by IU. Let's go, Zips!!!

nice article from student newspaper at IU as I mentioned earlier, Akron and IU both started the seasons very slowly...... but both have come on like gang busters during the IU streak when they went 8-0-1, IU scored 32 goals (more than 3.5 per game) https://www.idsnews.com/article/2024/11/indiana-soccer-ncaa-tournament-akron-iu-bloomington-hoosiers

It is well overdue to get a win in Bloomington The Hoosiers have never lost to the Zips at home, boasting a 16-0-2 record as the host. https://iuhoosiers.com/news/2024/11/23/mens-soccer-no-14-hoosiers-host-akron-in-ncaa-tournament-second-round
