g-mann17 Posted September 10, 2012 Report Posted September 10, 2012 Congratulations Dalton Williams, though no award or recognition is as good as a win, this just proves some things are moving in the right direction. Quote
Dr Z Posted September 10, 2012 Report Posted September 10, 2012 My guess to the question would be, Jones or Jacquemain in '08. WEEK 2 MAC EAST DIVISION OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Akron QB Dalton Williams...Senior quarterback Dalton Williams (Coppell, Texas) completed 27-of-54 passes for 313 yards and a school-record-tying five touchdowns in a 41-38 OT loss at FIU. The five TD tosses matched the mark set by Luke Getsy vs. Northern Illinois on Sept. 24, 2005. He was the first Akron quarterback to throw for 300 yards since Chris Jacquemain had 389 against Western Michigan on Oct. 6, 2007. Additionally, Williams' 54 pass attempts were the third most in a game in program history, while the 27 completions tied as the 12th highest in a contest in the school record book. Williams had two TD passes in the fourth quarter, the first was a 21-yard strike to Jawon Chisholm followed by a two-point conversion pass to Dee Frieson to give the Zips a 31-28 lead, and the second a 15-yard completion to Marquelo Suel to help Akron regain a 38-35 lead with 1:53 to play. Williams completed 7-of-15 passes for 105 yards in the fourth quarter. source When we continue to get better as a team, these type of numbers will result in W's. Quote
K92 Posted September 10, 2012 Report Posted September 10, 2012 Way to go Dalton Williams! I think I remember sitting in the Tilted Kilt having a discussion with friends about who would be the "breakout player of the year"... ZipsWin! is looking like a genius right now. Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted September 10, 2012 Report Posted September 10, 2012 ZipsWin! is looking like a genius right now. Isn't he the same guy that told us "Mark my words....watch out for Bryan Hipsher...that kid has NBA written all over him"? Quote

MDZip Posted September 10, 2012 Report Posted September 10, 2012 Isn't he the same guy that told us "Mark my words....watch out for Bryan Hipsher...that kid has NBA written all over him"? Perhaps it just stood for Numerous Bricks Ahead? Quote

johnnyzip84 Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 MAC EAST DIVISION OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK Congratulations Dalton. We are really proud of you. Grandpa and Mary Ann Welcome! It's great to have him here. Regarding the original question, George Thomas reported in today's article (in FIU game thread) that the entire O-Line won the award in week 11 of 2008. Quote
Ham Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 GREAT JOB - a couple of those drops would have equaled ticker tape parade! I have thought all along that Avis C would be the first Zip to win player of the week honor. Not being able to see the games in person, I can only guess that teams are just not able to challenge him limiting his chances. Quote
NewZipsFan Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 MAC EAST DIVISION OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK Congratulations Dalton. We are really proud of you. Grandpa and Mary Ann He is such a great young man --- he is destined for great things in his life - no matter what he chooses to do! We're so happy that he is a Zip! Quote
Dr Z Posted September 11, 2012 Report Posted September 11, 2012 We're so happy that he is a Zip!The QB upgrade is half our offensive difference so far. If I had to take another year of watching/listening to ball after ball get knocked down at the line...well, I just wouldn't have. Quote
