Z.I.P. Posted December 11, 2013 Report Share Posted December 11, 2013 Derschang, Quinn, Brenes and Stevenson are the Zips selected for the 2014 MLS Draft Combine. This equals the number from the school we DEFEATED in the NCAA tournament, and exceeds any of those "superior" ACC schools, or the other two Final Four participants! I believe Akron can continue to be a pipeline to Major League Soccer in the years to come. Do not doubt the Akron Zips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crew8 Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Steve Zakuani is out of contract and on today's MLS Re-Entry list. Blair Gavin and Sinisa Ubiparipovic are also on the list, but I don't expect them to get selected. Will we see Steve in a new uniform next season.

Blair is done. Sinisa is getting old. Cruel realities of professional sports. If any of these guys get another chance, we all know where it will be.

I am disappointed and surprised that Eric Stevenson has not been offered an HG contract by Crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all saw that coming from afar, right? Here's to hoping Stevo can resurrect his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roogangs Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 I am disappointed and surprised that Eric Stevenson has not been offered an HG contract by Crew. i am pretty sure he was not considered a HG player, i.e. did not play long enough for the crew or meet the minimum criteria to be considered a HG. however, on the crew website it appears that the crew are hosting a "college like combine" on 12/14/13 for a group of eligible pro players. i wonder if any Akron guys will be there?

Stevenson should be considered a Crew homegrown and the Crew FO still have time to sign him before the MLS draft next month. The requirement is a minimum of one year in the youth academy before college and must reside in the Crew's home territory when added to the homegrown list before college. EDIT: MLS Homegrown talents in college, if not signed, are sure things for the 2014 SuperDraft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
