Blue & Gold

Justin Sampson still has this "pinned" to the top of his twitter feed: I also saw a few pictures of him on twitter yesterday wearing a Zips hat for NLI Day, but I don't have time to search for them now. I'm comfortable believing Sampson's a Zip.

Barto put them over the top

Will we find out this spring whether the stud WR's we were hoping for are still on the roster?

So we've got Kobie Booker listed as a TE, eh? Means we're gonna waste his talent for 4-5 years :/

Beacon Journal: Zips rally from 14-point deficit to extend winning streak to 12 games But Johnson kicked things up and dominated the second half. He scored 16 of his 21 points in the second half and Jackson joined him, scoring 15 of his own.

I was gonna Like this post, but...

Or hitchhiking

Idk, good question. And earlier in the season KD was even letting him play through mistakes, which KD doesn't normally do w/ freshmen.

And if we had lost we'd never hear from him again. I got it

I have absolutely no idea! And since he's just a PWO, I'm totally amped he decided to walk on with us instead of at Ohio State! Kinda like CB Jeffrey Lubin is down to either accepting a scholarship with us, or accepting a PWO w/ Minnesota, I thought that was the boat we were in with Bubba. Fantastic, no-risk get by the Zippers.

Thanks!

Compared to the game happening around him, Josh Williams always looks like he's moving in slow motion.

Utomi's huge. Built like a linebacker.

That has to be the worst looking basketball court in America.

That dude's owning Big Dog.

Idk. I doubt they'd be allowed to attend practices. I should know that by now, but I forget.

Why is Aaron Jackson playing?

Idk, I don't really trust those sites. Jemarulin Suggs is definitely signing. Same with DeAndre Brimage. (Unless they're both non-qualifiers, or something. But they're both definitely planning on playing ball for UA.)

Forgot about those NIU announcers. I remember liking the guy on the right last year.

It's NLOI Eve and here is how we think our signing class, as presently composed, will break down by position: DEFENSE DL (4) DeAndre Brimage Eric Bentley Tracy Jordan Malik Townsend DE (3) Justin Sampson Kobie Booker Matthew Hanson LB (1) Bubba Arslanian CB (2) Jordyn Riley Marquess Callaway S (2) Reggie Corner Jr. Jerome Cooper OFFENSE QB (2) Nick Johns Alex Ramart OL (2) Marcus Kidd Hunter Corne RB (2) Jemarulin Suggs Marquise Bridges WR (1) Dusty Burkhart PK (1) Mitch Cooper P (1) Jonah Weiland ATH (1) Malik Woodridge

You're right. Seems to be back to normal. Thanks!

GT of The Akron Beacon: Kwan Cheatham elevates game with hard word, growing confidence Great article on Kwan's explosion! Good insight by Big Dog concerning Kwan's development. He echoes what we've noted as well: Teammate Isaiah “Big Dog” Johnson said he sees other reasons for the difference. “He’s not worried about missed shots,” Johnson said after a recent practice. That ability to move on after a bad or missed shot is key in the success of any basketball player. “It’s just level-headedness, always staying within himself, not trying to do too much,” Johnson said. “Just doing what he does best and it’s working out for him.” In other words, he’s also strengthened the mental aspect of his game. (If I may submit a complaint, this story should have run yesterday and the ABJ should have given us a proper NIU pregame story today. Just saying.)

Jerome received an invitation to the NFL combine.
