RootforRoo44 Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 DeAndre Yedlin! (Mine AND my guess for Bisbee) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyake Posted May 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 DeAndre Yedlin is my current favorite as well. HE's SOOO FAST!!!!! I love watching him explode past defenders. He's probably faster than everyone on the football team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fknbuflobo Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Yes. Superb photo. Great uniform for a great franchise. Awesome hair! I hope he keeps that throughout the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zip_ME87 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Yes. Superb photo. Great uniform for a great franchise. Awesome hair! I hope he keeps that throughout the season. I agree with everything you said. I hope Steve Zakuani is able to make a comeback, and that DeAndre and Steve will one day play together for the Sounders.

MDZip Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Pete Milich, would have loved to have seen him play, but his glory days were the very early sixties. Any guy that scores a goal in sixteen consecutive games has got to be worth watching. He also still holds the Zips record for goals in a career (85). This was in the very early days of Akron soccer and got the Zips off on the right foot (pun intended). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wally B Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 I admit I'm biased from my youth! But anyone who shared Richfield with 20,000 other soccer fans will give Kai a pass on this one! Maybe he resided in Akron before retiring to Rocky River.... I was too young to appreciate the Akron players on the most sucessful soccer team in N. America but I still rememeber the likes of the Nanchoff's and Benny Dargle being anounced! Incidentally, I still have Kai's Force card from this year! Wonder how much it's worth?

Zip_ME87 Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 I've thought about this for sometime now, and there is absolutely no way I can pick a favorite player. We have and have had so many great players; I appreciate all of them playing for Akron and building our nationally recognized program. I will mention that this is the senior season for the 3 remaining starters of the 2010 National Championship game...Scott Caldwell, Chad Barson, and David Meves...as well as Thomas Schmitt who will have given us 5 years, I believe. I hope that Zips fans will show up this Fall in the biggest numbers in program history to help the Zips make this a great season culminating in our 2nd National Championship and sending these guys out on top.

fknbuflobo Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 I was waiting for someone else to mention it. After watching Spring season, and considering the recruiting class, I believe the Zips will be 2012 NCAA Champions. Seriously! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
