Blue & Gold

Elmore James has an NBA body.

Ugh. I hate uncorrectable twitter typos. 😡

Indeed. Thank you, Good Doctor. Site was wonky for a few days but it seems to be back to normal now.

Does each individual coach (or at least those w/ seniority) typically scout talent and have the authority to offer a scholarship? Or do the coaches get together in the off season & have a pool of targets, some ranked higher than others? Can you give a little insight into the process?

What would you say makes for a good recruiter?

I saw a player in a walking boot but thought it was Pat Mayfield?

@Hilltopper, can you give us any word on how Prince Mosengo & Ryan Prather are looking in practice scrimmages?

Any word on how Gyuwon Chong's rehab is going?

Didn't Ali Ali go off in Athens last year?

Correct! 💯

Sweet. Tweets once again posting. X is the leading college scorer in Ohio.

Uh, oh. Wheels coming off?

I’ll try once I’m home & back on my laptop. Thanks you @Captain Kangaroo and @Dr Z!

Garvin Clarke rocking the headband. Didn’t recognize him 😂

Pat Mayfield in a walking boot 😱😱😩😭😭 Game over ☹️

Better Rowdy turnout than for OU. Hope we’re up for this.

Garvin Clarke was our 3rd leading scorer vs. KSUcks (8 points). His defense was one of the game changers. Hankerson only finished with 6 points, but was so close to scoring 8 points in the final 5-ish minutes alone... just had shots rim out. His shot looks good & he's still confident shooting it. Hunter had 5 and was sort of a no-show in the 2nd half. It'd be great if he stepped it up just a bit more. 8 point's be great... same w/ Hank. Enrique had 19 & 17. X put himself in the lead for MACPOY w/ 24 points & thoroughly outplayed Carry (who played all 40 minutes). UT sophomore guard Ra'Heim Moss may have the athleticism to guard X one-on-one. He's an explosive, solidly-built stud who I believe was being recruited by Michigan State as a safety or WR (IIRC) but chose UT for basketball. He played at Spire Institute & can jump out of the gym. UT sophomore guard EJ Farmer was one of the better players in the state his senior year coming out of Cleveland Heights (was a junior when Garvin Clarke was a senior). Averaged over 20 PPG his senior season (IIRC). He hasn't yet hit a stride @ UT yet but wouldn't it be our luck if he had a breakout game... UT senior forward Setric Miller seems like he's been at UT forever. He's big, strong, skilled, high basketball I.Q. & should give Enrique a better game than the KSUcks head case Chris Payton did. https://twitter.com/AkronEcho/status/1622777726384934913 I am unable to use both the link feature and have tweets embed, so you can follow the above link to a University of Toledo Athletics game day story.

I'm coming tomorrow and bringing a few friends with me. I know it obviously won't be as intense as KSUcks but I hope it's closer to a KSUcks crowd than the disappointing OU crowd. This team deserves it! Go Zips!

C. Thomas seems to have turned into a tweener, no? IIRC he was a highly-regarded safety in high school, but I guess he's not quite fast enough for safety at this level? Is he physical enough to play LB? He'd be an awfully light DE.

Looks like I'm unable to embed tweets ☹️
