Odd for there to be photos and no article but nice to see the guys having a good time and it looks like the new guys are really meshing with the team.
Maybe an article will follow.

In all of the articles about Ball, we still know very little about him - what was his journey to UA like? What was experience like as he joined the team as a transfer? What was it like sitting out last year and watching things fall apart? What role has his family played in helping him navigate 6 years of a collegiate career?
We know he came via OSU, but there is just no depth to anything GT writes.

No, he's a junior.

Pre-Spring Top Ten Returning OLB in College Football for 2017
"The MAC’s leading tackler with 122, a he also tallied team-highs with 11.5 TFL, 4.0 sacks, eight hurries, and two forced fumbles. The senior out of Ocala, Florida isn’t huge at 6-1 225, but he’s quick in pursuit and hits like a ton of bricks. He’s a potential MAC Defensive Player of the Year, and star with All-American potential, just on a bad team."

Normally, I would say that a freshman QB is an automatic redshirt, but I would not be surprised if he gets a chance to compete.

I won't pretend to know anything about QB footwork, but that is a nice looking ball, he throws.

To me, one of the most exciting plays I have seen in the Bowden era, was the fake punt against Toledo in 2013. From what I understand that was designed to be a play called on the field when the players saw a certain set-up. They saw it, successfully executed it and went on to win the upset. The players involved in that play (can't recall) might also be worthy of at least an honorable mention.

I would put Justin March in place of Switzer. March was a force, regardless of the level of talent we up against.
-
Regardless, they all have an equal shot at winning. We will see how good Kato and Johns are.
-
Nick Johns starts through OOC and Tommy the rest of the season.

They lost to freaking New Phila!!! There is zero D-1 talent in Tusc county. You get maybe 1 D-1 player per decade or so.
A few years, ago, in PA AAAA football when the runner-up to the state, championship had zero seniors with D1 scholarships. One kid made a freshman 1-AA team and that was about it.

This makes me a little more uneasy, but its not like there are a surplus of 400lb players floating around.
I think they spend most of the freshman year getting these kids into shape. Hopefully his commitment will motivate him to get a head start on this.

I like what Nick had to say.
I agree. I wish we would have learned a little more about him, though.

Such a thorough analysis that totally misses Warren Ball. I also think Austin Wolfe is slightly under-rated. He was eclipsed by JoJo and Jerome but he is a fairly reliable guy and has made some amazing grabs. When you think about WR, we are so much better than we were 3 and 4 years ago. I do agree with their DE position analysis. It's probably our most vulnerable position. I also expect some competition for punter and kicker. We might have O'Leary kicking FGs and another guy kicking off. The article did a pretty amazing job framing how dire the injury situation was.
-
I really think this was a great commit and we will have to work to keep him. I hope he is watching practices and really starts to feel a strong Zips connection, early.

Dylan Evans is listed as a coach. I don't remember hearing about that happening. Was I sleeping?
He is listed with the other grad assistants.
Could the MWC leave TV

I will be interested to see how Google TV, which is coming out in a few months, and will be rolled out to select markets at first, changes the cable cutting and on-line viewing habbits. ESPN is in their line-up.
One has to believe that Amazon and Xbox will be right behind them.
