Blue & Gold

Oops, you're right.^^

I'm also surprised that big Darryl Monroe (6-1, 235) is listed at WILL linebacker. I figured he'd be MIKE, along with Williams.

Just noticed that Newman Williams is also listed as #2 at MIKE linebacker behind John Rachel. If that's the case I'm no longer disappointed seeing him listed as #2 TE.

Where do you find a 2-deep spring roster?

Joe Dunn's son, Tyler, a pretty tough, "blue-collar" PG from Jackson, will walk-on at UA instead of taking a scholarship offer from Walsh. Welcome, Tyler! Hope you have fun & represent the Zips as well as your father does! http://www.verbalcommits.com/players/tyler-dunn

Notre Dame handled Witchita State rather easily last night. The Fighting Irish are in the Elite Eight, their only close call being a narrow first-round win against Buffalo.

I'm not thrilled about Newman Williams at TE. He was a pretty dominant inside linebacker.

It's strange how impressionable (at least on me) their 5-year run was, because I still think of them as a top basketball school, but they're actually quite far from it. They'd fit in nicely with us, Ohio, Buffalo & UT.

Great work, OU Dude. Thank you!

Maybe I'm really showing my age, but I still view DePaul as a prime job. Yeah, they haven't done anything lately, but they really have a good (great?) tradition & they're located in downtown Chicago. Recruiting wise, Hurley could build an annual Sweet 16 team without ever having to drive more than 15 miles from campus.

http://www.verbalcommits.com/schools/akron Came across this pretty great recruiting sight. Verbalcommits.com. It lists all (of which they are aware) outstanding scholarship offers Akron (or any school) has through the next two years. It doesn't reflect the offer that we've apparently extended to Malik Miller. It does show that we've offered a scholarship to Canton Timken's LePear Toles. I still haven't seen where we've offered STVM's Henry Baddley. He's going to be legit. We should get on him. Hilltopper mentioned that Baddley's parents are thinking "bigger than the MAC." Great, so are we! And, btw, Rick Bolus has future Zip Isaiah Williams more highly ranked than Baddley. I think Baddley's just got a ton of potential, plus he's a homeboy - we gotta get that STVM pipeline running again (we're also going to covet STVM sophomore PG Jayvon Graves in two years).

Good. I want to see Hurley stay in the MAC.

Thanks. And wow, was that even with the split squad?

How'd the Walsh scrimmage go?

In the Pennsylvania Class A state championship game, Malik Miller's Farrell High got blown out 85-53 by Philadelphia's Constitution High. Malik, however, scored 24 points and was named Farrell player of the game.

Went & saw Josh & STVM play Poland Seminary tonight. Josh was on fire. He scored 27 points and I only remember him missing one shot all night. He stops & pops 3's on the fast break. http://www.ohio.com/sports/prep-stats/high-school-scores-summaries-and-schedules-1.576425 What impresses me most about Josh is his demeanor. He's unflappable. Cool, calm & collected - very much like Noah Robotham. He'll make another nice complement to Antino, who is, as KD says, "an explosion."

#3 seed Notre Dame got absolutely all they could handle from #14 (& Stow Bulldog-led David Walker) Northeastern.

Instant Classic.

Buffalo's legit. Especially if Moss' ankle is feeling better.

Well said. This illustrates many fans' disillusionment with our less-than-demanding schedule.
