Federico Serra transferred to Palm Beach Atlantic University

1-0 Zips. Looks like Pacheco with a header off a free kick from near the corner.

There are only 36 numbers that players in college can wear. So actually retiring the numbers instead of just honoring them could end up causing problems for some programs.

It's his brother. This is Wan Kuzri, that was Wan Kuzain. Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal plays for Sporting KC.

I saw WMU -16.5

The Big 10 has not been playing. ACC has.

He's also got a podcast where he's interviewed a few former Zips (Richie Laryea, Adam Najem, and Aodhan Quinn). I've only listened to the Najem one so far, but they talked a lot about his decision to come to Akron and the recruiting process. Pretty interesting.

Not sure if it was mentioned, but Aaron Jackson is playing in Ireland this season.

Is there anyone that went to the game against the Riverhounds yesterday? Any updates?

Didn't we have 15 turnovers against Clemson? I was really pleased to see us improve that so drastically yesterday.

I got mine at the bookstore in the Union. Not sure if they still have them, as this was a few years ago.

Did anyone attend the game @ the Riverhounds yesterday? Despite being local, I was not able to go. I saw the result, but was curious who scored the goals, how we looked, etc.

Niko de Vera went to NYRB with the 8th pick of the 2nd round (31 overall).

Sam earned a penalty in the game today for Team Predator. He took the penalty, but it was saved. 22nd minute for anyone that wants to go and look at the replay.

I don't know if it is the same in European basketball, but I had a friend play professional soccer in Germany, and his league had about a month off starting around thanksgiving for a holiday break of sorts. Like I said, I'm not sure if they do the same in basketball, because I think another part of the reason they did it for soccer is because the weather is bad for the fields/players.

Also, the Penguins have a home game tonight. So traffic will be a little heavier going coming from the west/north and heading past downtown towards Oakland.

They have their own field: Ambrose Urbanic Field in the Petersen Sports Complex.

Quincy Diggs is playing with the Texas Tech alumni. https://www.thetournament.com/teams/matadors-texas-tech-alumni

In the second half lineup for the Riverhounds Brad Ruhaak is starting at outside back. He's listed as a trialist.

Rumors popping up today of Mattocks to Portland. I guess some Jamaican radio station is reporting it. I'm waiting on one of the big American outlets to confirm it, but my fingers are crossed!

Jesse Garcia-Aguilar has transferred to Oregon State. I was hoping he would help fill the Najem void. Hopefully one of these new guys is up to the task.

I was at the game. They are renovating their soccer field so the field this game was played on used to be the intramural field. The lighting wasn't great. Couple funny things during the game: Girl sitting in front of me Fromm UAB basketball team said after UAB tied it at 1: "no way we win this one, Akron has been on offense for 90% of the game." Also, I overheard a girl talking about Fenlason saying: "Did you see LeBron gave him a shoutout on Twitter?"

He is in California somewhere according to his twitter. He is participating in preseason. But I haven't seen anything that said which school he is playing for. His twitter bio still says UA.

I can't link at the moment, but there was an instagram post from the Cleveland/Akron Pro Am saying Brett McKnight was a top performer. Hadn't seen anything about him in a while.

Says the guy from Portugal is a graduate student. Wonder how many years of eligibility he has.
