fknbuflobo Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Jeremy Pollard looks big, agile, and clean with both feet. Given the nature of Australian Rules Football, can one safely assume that Pollard can punt the ball very well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to seeing him in action this Spring. Edited February 9, 2016 by Zip_ME87 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What?!?!?!? http://www.gozips.com/sports/wsoc/2015-16/releases/20160213000c19 That's an exaggeration! She only had 92, per this story! http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/bianca-helps-middlesbrough-college-girls-9115498 I'm trying to remember the name of the Central-Hower player who came to UA around 1980. I think he scored over 100 goals in one year, but that was the first year Ohio HSs were more or less mandated to have boys soccer teams, and I think for example, he scored 12 goals in a 20-0 win over Coventry! Genius Bob Dowdy immediately moved him to CB! He went on to play for the Canton Invaders in the "other indoor league". Come on fknbuflobo, tell us his name! Edited March 11, 2016 by Z.I.P.

fknbuflobo Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 Steve Fricke was a really tough customer years ago, even at age ~40. I know this personally. For all I know, he is playing amateur leagues still. Some guys can just play until they drop. Last I heard he was a fireman out in Portage County somewhere. Good guy; bad adversary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZipsBurgh Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 Jesse Garcia-Aguilar has transferred to Oregon State. I was hoping he would help fill the Najem void. Hopefully one of these new guys is up to the task. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fknbuflobo Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 Best of luck to Jesse! Good kid. Had many chances to impress, but did not. Definitely D1 material, but not a starter for Zips. He will play 90 minutes every match for OSU. Mine is an admittedly arrogant perspective, but I think accurate nonetheless. Incoming MFs are more productive than Garcia. Everyone recognizes this.

I'm just popping in here, like I do from time to time. I'm hardly a soccer guy, but have started to get into the sport some more (thanks to the Akron program).

TennZip Posted March 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 I think Wadszip might have been asking about this young man....on the u-20 team John Nelson (Internationals SC; Medina, OH), if you were, John Nelson is a high school junior....and he is the #1 rated high school junior. From what I have read, Nelson wants to play in Europe as soon as he is done with high school. The top 7 or 8 ranked players in the country have all been bypassing college. This year, Emmanuel Sabbi is ranked #11 or #13 (depending on ranking) and he is the 3rd highest ranked player that will be attending college. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
