ZachTheZip Posted November 22, 2009 Report Posted November 22, 2009 This is the story of Caleb Porter: How he got to where he is and what he does to create success. The title of this thread uses the word "story", but if he keeps it up we may have to change it to "legend". Quote
ksu sucks Posted November 22, 2009 Report Posted November 22, 2009 Hopefully that "legend" stays put in Akron! The JoePa of Akron soccer! Quote
zip37 Posted November 22, 2009 Report Posted November 22, 2009 Caleb, the players and the program can be summed up: CLASS! Thank you Caleb & players for a thrilling season! Quote
MDZip Posted November 22, 2009 Report Posted November 22, 2009 From the article:He attended Indiana, playing for the perennial power, and was a standout for a team that still holds the NCAA single-season record with 23 wins in a row in 1997 before losing to UCLA in the national semifinals.When the Zips reach the national semifinals, they will be in the exact same position. How cool would it be for Porter to break his playing record coaching the team that does it. Quote
Z.I.P. Posted November 22, 2009 Report Posted November 22, 2009 ''I was a guy who would do all the dirty work and make the players around me better,'' Porter said. ''I was smart defensively, and I was tough.''And I would rather die than lose.''Now that sums up what I would like to see in MY football club. In fact, the Rowdies might be interested in that as a chant in our next two games this November-December. Quote
