Zip_ME87 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 http://gozips.com/sports/msoc/2014-15/releases/20150416r9p6g4How PATHETIC is it that the Zips Mens Soccer Sports Information Director has to dig up stories (links) as far back as Dec 11, 2014? If someone doesn't know by now that Saad was at the MLS Combine and drafted by Sporting KC, then that person isn't a Zips Mens Soccer fan or doesn't care.Where's the recruiting class announcement? I don't care if the recruiting class isn't completely finalized due to whatever issues still are in work, if any. Publish the information about those who are officially signed (NLIs). Then update it later like we used to get. Is Victor Souto's post-season suspension done or not? It was originally 2 NCAA Tourney games, as I understood it via the grapevine. (We never did get the information.) We only had 1 NCAA Tourney game last year. I think it may done, however, and it won't be carried into this season, but why can't the SID inform us. I don't think other schools are nearly as secretive about this stuff. I'm sure it's in the public domain, anyway; so, why not report it.I can't believe that we can't get better and timely information about the Zips' premier sports team! What a joke (but NOT FUNNY)! 3 Quote

ZipsBurgh Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 I get the frustration, but there are a handful of tournament teams from last year that haven't released recruiting classes yet either, including a team that made the last four in Providence (Charlotte and Ohio State are other examples). I'm hoping we hear soon, but we already know about a few commits and only lost a few guys. The transfers out are what I really want to know more about. Quote
Zip_ME87 Posted April 17, 2015 Author Report Posted April 17, 2015 For the most part, I already know. I just don't understand why there isn't at least some official information. Maybe it is the coaching staff holding the information close. If it's really necessary, ok, but it seems like there is very little information that flows officially. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted April 17, 2015 Report Posted April 17, 2015 They don't write these things for the fans that stay up-to-date on every little bit of news. It can be easy to say they don't put out enough information, when you already know all the information they can put out. Quote
fknbuflobo Posted April 18, 2015 Report Posted April 18, 2015 Is it fair to compare current SID with his predecessor? Quote
Zip_ME87 Posted April 18, 2015 Author Report Posted April 18, 2015 Is it fair to compare current SID with his predecessor?Why wouldn't it be? The one thing of which I'm unsure is how much of the messaging is outside his control. So, I don't want to harp on him too much. However, regarding the goZips.com post to which I originally referred, it wouldn't have been so bothersome to me if a few links were released each month rather than waiting until April to post links as far back as December. I would hope that goZips.com could release information that is fresher than that. Quote
fknbuflobo Posted April 18, 2015 Report Posted April 18, 2015 Such comparison is appropriate and fair. A previous standard has been set, and current SID has failed to match that mark. Quote
