Blue & Gold Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 7:45 a.m. Coach Bowden on Daryan Martin: "I'm very excited that Daryan Martin from Princeton High School is our first signee. He represents the type of player that Coach Amato needs on the defensive front to run his 4-3 defense." According to TB & CA, DM will be a DE as opposed to an LB. OK!

Blue & Gold Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Curtis Black is ginormous. Being a pretty solid basketball player and with only one year of football under his belt, I think this guy's got an incredibly high ceiling. His biggest challenge may actually be keeping his playing weight down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 My GoZips.com linky thingy for RB Bryan Green isn't working. However, I believe it says his high school coach was John Buchtel. Cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I believe it says his high school coach was John Buchtel. Cool. I think it's because they haven't updated his information yet on the list.

Blue & Gold Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 The coach is not coming. The tweet was a little unclear It seems as though Coach Bowden must be building a good relationship w/ K.e.n.t Roosevelt, which is good; they've been putting out quite a bit of D-1 talent recently.

Zipmeister Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 And it appears the day's first signing has also brought the day's first, but surely not last, typo from GoZips.com. Actually I believe the first typo occurred at 7 sharp in the first sentence of the blog when someone there wrote they would be getting "letters of intents." GO ZIPS.
