new offer! Kenneth Lofton Jr! aka Kenny Lofton's son!!! unconfirmed! 6-6 PF 225# Port Arthur TX Port Arthur Memorial HS 2 Star recruit Gonna wear #7

When Eric's number was hoisted into the rafters last year he mentioned his son was going to play for the Chippewas. I assumed it was basketball, but he will be a cornerback for the Chip's football team:E.J. McLaughlin • Defensive Back • 6-0 • 185 • East Grand Rapids, Mich. • East Grand Rapids High School At East Grand Rapids: Earned varsity letters in football and basketball ... scored touchdowns four different ways as a senior ... defensively, recorded 51 stops and intercepted two passes from his safety position ... rushed for 313 yards, averaging 6.8 yards per carry, and scored six touchdowns in 2005 ... also caught a touchdown pass, returned a punt 57 yards for a score and ran a kickoff back 90 yards for a touchdown ... helped lead team to a 10-1 record in 2005 ... all-state honorable mention selection ... garnered all-conference accolades ... ranked as the No. 19 prospect in Michigan by the Detroit Free Press ... No. 42 on the Detroit News Blue Chip List. Personal: Selected CMU over Western Michigan and Toledo ... prep coach was Peter Stuursma ... son of Eric McLaughlin ... born 2/20/88.

I remember that tournament game against OSU where he was getting beat up and eventually got hurt. Still makes me mad.

Sorry, there's too large a gap between a 72 Roo and a 19 Roo.

Excellent scoop! Eric was definitely one of my favorites from the Huggins era, although I feel much older now thanks to this I kind of lost track, but didn't he get into coaching for a while?
